I just did my simple calculator in Excel which allows you to embed it into a site.... took the embed code it provided, put it in a 'placeholder',
played around with sizes and such... and bam!... there it is!

Got the job done... Now I'm sure If you're any good at Excel, you can create a pretty sophisticated calculator.

It has its place but fails on handling button triggers and radio buttons. In your example, you do need to block entries into the formula fields.

It does require a properly licensed copy of Excel. The Excel code is horrendous. You need to keep a master Excel version available for changes.

Google Sheets or Google Forms might be a better start point.
