Using Excel
Spreadsheets such as Microsoft Excel can provide a significant saving in time and effort. The process of establishing standard costs and then using them in a project costing exercise would involve many hours on a calculator and then having to retype the results into word or worse still hand writing them would be very taxing and expensive. Remember your time is money.
