Class Schedule

Class ScheduleThis Class Schedule template is designed to help students plan their week. It is especially useful during course registration, to help avoid overlapping classes and fitting in a work schedule.

The spreadsheet has two worksheets ... one with time intervals of 15 minutes and the other with time intervals of 30 minutes.

Mortgage Payment Calculator

Mortgage Payment Calculator ScreenshotThis free Mortgage Payment Calculator is for comparing various fixed-rate mortgages side-by-side. It can be used for both US (monthly compounding) and Canadian (semi-annual compounding) mortgages and also allows you to enter extra monthly payments.

Break-Even Calculator

Break Even Analysis This new Break Even Analysis spreadsheet is helpful for analyzing the financial viability of a new venture or product. It calculates the break-even sales (number of sales required to break even), the break-even price, or the payback period. Each scenario is a separate worksheet within the workbook. The download page also includes detailed information about the formulas used to calculate the break-even point.

An Example: If the total fixed costs for the development and advertising of an iPhone application are $5,000 and the variable costs are 30%/unit and the sale price is $1.99, to break-even after 1 year would require about 300 sales per month (or about 10 per day).

Printable Monthly Planner

Monthly PlannerThis Monthly Planner Template is great for printing letter-size planner pages for a 3-ring binder. It is more than just a calendar. It includes a To-Do list and sections for monthly Goals and Notes. Unlike many of my other calendar templates, this one allows you to copy the worksheet so that you can have multiple months within the same workbook, which is nice if you are using this for planning rather than just printing a blank planner page.

Meal Planner Template

Meal PlannerThis Weekly Meal Planner template lets you create your own list of main dishes, side dishes, breakfast and lunch meals. These lists appear as drop-down lists within the meal planner, making it easy to quickly select meals for the week.



Menu Planner The Monthly Menu Planner template also lets you customize lists, and can be useful for longer-term planning. It only includes space for one meal per day - mostly likely dinner. However, it could also be used for a school lunch menu.


The screenshot below shows how the meals can be selected from the drop-down list. However, you aren't required to use an item for the list. You can type whatever you want into the cell.

Meal List Selection

The templates come with a sample list already created, which you can modify. If you have suggestions for other items to include in the list, you are welcome to post a comment below.

Weekly Planner

Weekly PlannerThis weekly planner spreadsheet lets you print a letter-size planner page that will fit common 3-ring binders. You can enter yearly events like birthdays and holidays and it will automatically add them to the planner (up to 3 events/holidays per day).

I've also created a couple printable weekly planners that you can download from this page in PDF format. One is based on the Excel version of the weekly planner, and the other is a very basic planner page without any bells and whistles.

Personal Budget

Personal BudgetThis Personal Budget Template let's you plan your budget for an entire year. My article How to Make a Budget explains how to use this budget template to keep track of expenses from month-to-month so that you can figure out an average for each expense category.

I use this type of budget spreadsheet because it lets me include annual or semi-annual payments during the specific months that they occur, as well as special times of the year like back-to-school shopping, Christmas, birthdays, etc. It's basically a personal 12-month projected cash flow and is very useful for planning for future large purchases or major events (like moving, marrying, kids, school, etc.)

BMI Chart Template

BMI ChartThis BMI Chart was created in Excel using similar techniques as the Ideal Weight Chart. The spreadsheet also includes a BMI Calculator.

Net Worth Calculator

Net Worth Calculator
This Net Worth Calculator is a spreadsheet template that I created while I was working on creating some other financial statements. It helps you calculate your personal net worth by providing a ready-to-use list of asset and liability categories.
