Finally the last bar represents the final value after applying each of the cashflows in order. Your chart should now look like this.
Your chart should now look like this.
Let s take a simple example to understand things better. If e4 0 e4 0 use the fill tool to drag the formula down to the end of the column again. Select b4 in the chart and enter this formula. For example if you are creating a waterfall chart as a visual for a profit and loss statement and the first figure is 1 000 while the second figure is 2 000 part of the floating column will be above the x axis and part will be below.
