Use Solver to find an optimal (maximum or minimum) value for a formula in one cell — called the objective cell — subject to constraints, or limits, on the values of other formula cells on a worksheet. Solver works with a group of cells, called decision variables or simply variable cells that are used in computing the formulas in the objective and constraint cells. Solver adjusts the values in the decision variable cells to satisfy the limits on constraint cells and produce the result you want for the objective cell. Put simply, you can use Solver to determine the maximum or minimum value of one cell by changing other cells. For example, you can change the amount of your projected advertising budget and see the effect on your projected profit amount.

Note: In the following example, the level of advertising in each quarter affects the number of units sold, indirectly determining the amount of sales revenue, the associated expenses, and the profit. Solver can change the quarterly budgets for advertising (decision variable cells B5:C5), up to a total budget constraint of $20,000 (cell F5), until the total profit (objective cell F7) reaches the maximum possible amount. The values in the variable cells are used to calculate the profit for each quarter, so they are related to the formula objective cell F7, =SUM (Q1 Profit:Q2 Profit). Variable cells 2. Constrained cell 3.

Objective cell After Solver runs, the new values are as follows. Note: If the Solver command or the Analysis group is not available, you need to activate the Solver add-in. See: • In the Set Objective box, enter a cell reference or name for the objective cell. The objective cell must contain a formula. • Do one of the following: • If you want the value of the objective cell to be as large as possible, click Max. • If you want the value of the objective cell to be as small as possible, click Min.

• If you want the objective cell to be a certain value, click Value of, and then type the value in the box. • In the By Changing Variable Cells box, enter a name or reference for each decision variable cell range. Separate the non-adjacent references with commas. The variable cells must be related directly or indirectly to the objective cell.

You can specify up to 200 variable cells. • In the Subject to the Constraints box, enter any constraints that you want to apply by doing the following: • In the Solver Parameters dialog box, click Add. • In the Cell Reference box, enter the cell reference or name of the cell range for which you want to constrain the value. • Click the relationship ( =, int, bin, or dif ) that you want between the referenced cell and the constraint.If you click int, integer appears in the Constraint box. If you click bin, binary appears in the Constraint box. If you click dif, alldifferent appears in the Constraint box. • If you choose = for the relationship in the Constraint box, type a number, a cell reference or name, or a formula.

• Do one of the following: • To accept the constraint and add another, click Add. • To accept the constraint and return to the Solver Parameters dialog box, click OK.

Note You can apply the int, bin, and dif relationships only in constraints on decision variable cells. You can change or delete an existing constraint by doing the following: • In the Solver Parameters dialog box, click the constraint that you want to change or delete. • Click Change and then make your changes, or click Delete. • Click Solve and do one of the following: • To keep the solution values on the worksheet, in the Solver Results dialog box, click Keep Solver Solution. • To restore the original values before you clicked Solve, click Restore Original Values. • You can interrupt the solution process by pressing Esc.

Excel recalculates the worksheet with the last values that are found for the decision variable cells. • To create a report that is based on your solution after Solver finds a solution, you can click a report type in the Reports box and then click OK. The report is created on a new worksheet in your workbook. If Solver doesn't find a solution, only certain reports or no reports are available. • To save your decision variable cell values as a scenario that you can display later, click Save Scenario in the Solver Results dialog box, and then type a name for the scenario in the Scenario Name box. • After you define a problem, click Options in the Solver Parameters dialog box. • In the Options dialog box, select the Show Iteration Results check box to see the values of each trial solution, and then click OK.
