The value returned in Excel A49 depends on the formulas, cell references, or static data present in the adjacent cells. Without knowing the formulas or data in the adjacent cells, it is impossible to determine what value would be returned in A49. However, based on the information provided in the search results, it seems that there is a formula present in cell A49 that involves the COUNTIF function. In one case, the formula counts the number of cells in a range that start with "np" and returns the count. In another case, the formula is not specified, but the video title suggests that it involves a list of values in cells A43 to A47 that start with "np".
