Autocalculate is a very useful tool to obtain numerical information quickly and to check some of your formulas which I highly recommend. You can easily obtain a total, an average, or other information about the numbers in a range by using the AutoCalculate area on the status bar. All you need to do is select the range of cells containing the numbers you want to check. Most symbols used in numbers are applied by using the format command.
Common formats are already available, but any type of format can be customized.

Make sure you can differentiate between the Currency and the Accounting formats, since they both yield numbers with a currency sign. The Currency number format places the dollar sign directly beside the number. The Accounting number format places the dollar sign aligned on the left of the cell and the number on the right.
