Monthly Summary Totals
Create a summary section. Use SUMIF
=SUMIF(I:I, "2023-10", H:H) // Total spent in October 2023
=SUMIFS(C:C, I:I, "2023-10") // Product costs only for October
=SUMIFS(F:F, I:I, "2023-10") // Shipping costs only for October
Grand Totals & Averages
=SUM(H:H) // Total spent all-time
=AVERAGE(H:H) // Average cost per transaction
