I'd use an IF statement

=IF(A1=D1,"True","False") or other results as needed

=VLOOKUP(value,all_columns_looking_at,offset_from_first_column,2)

You may not need either of those, perhaps this

=A4=F4

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
