3. Pre-Built Formulas & Calculation Logic

Target Cell / Range	Formula Name	Exact Formula (Excel & Google Sheets)	Calculation Purpose
H2:H16	Subtotal Calculation	`=F2*G2`	Multiplies Units/Hours by Rate to establish the baseline gross line item value.
J2:J16	Net Total Calculation	`=H2+I2`	Computes final net total by adding/subtracting the Tax/Discount modifier from the Subtotal.
H17 (Summary)	Total Pipeline Value	`=SUM(H2:H16)`	Aggregates gross pipeline exposure across all listed quotes.
J17 (Summary)	Total Revenue Realized	`=SUMIF(K2:K16, "Accepted", J2:J16) + SUMIF(K2:K16, "Invoiced", J2:J16)`	Sums net totals strictly for quotes that have reached Accepted or Invoiced status.
K18 (Summary)	Win Rate Percentage	`=COUNTIF(K2:K16, "Accepted") / (COUNTIF(K2:K16, "Accepted") + COUNTIF(K2:K16, "Rejected"))`	Calculates conversion efficiency against closed-won and closed-lost quotes.
L2:L16	Owner Lookup	`=VLOOKUP(D2, ResourceDirectory!A:B, 2, FALSE)` (Optional dynamic routing)	Automatically assigns account lead based on category or client profile.
