Excel is telling you what it is doing in the top left hand corner. It is summing the data in the Value field. The information is there but the data isn’t particularly easy to read, you can add commas by selecting the cells with the numbers and clicking on the comma button under the ‘home’ menu ribbon.
You might also want to sort this data. This is easy in a pivot table; click on one cell which contains a number, say B7 in this example, then click the small Z to A button in the data ribbon menu. You should now be looking at this. In the space of two seconds you have now added up the entire data set to show how much money each of the parties made. But there are still some questions.
