Spreadsheet Modeling and Excel Solver A mathematical model implemented in a spreadsheet is called a spreadsheet model. Major spreadsheet packages come with a built-in optimization tool called Solver. Now we demonstrate how to use Excel spreadsheet modeling and Solver to find the optimal solution of optimization problems. If the model has two variables‚ the graphical method can be used to solve the model. Very few real world problems involve only two variables. For problems with more than two variables

nonlinear. Once a few data points are obtained from trial‚ market studies‚ or industry information‚ a bivariate (two sets of data) plot can be drawn that reflects the demand curve for a particular product. Using Excel‚ the data can be entered in a spreadsheet and plotted. The independent (x) variable is typically plotted on the horizontal axis and the dependent (y) variable is plotted on the vertical axis. When plotting a demand curve‚ economists always place the quantity demanded on the horizontal axis
