Question Guide for DS 2810
Most things on excel and access on a mac are
usually found by hovering at the top of the window
Insert a function in cell B24 to calculate the total sales for Q1 in column B.
Total = Sum/Autosum
Insert a function in the cell H11 that looks up the sales rep region based on the table in cells E2:F6.
Looks Up = VLOOKUP
Enter a function in cell I11 to calculate the sales reps eligibility for bonus. If the reps total sales are
greater than or equal to the sales_goal then the function should return the
value Bonus, if not the function should return NA.
If = IF()
Greater than or equal to = >=
First return = True (Bonus)
Second return = False (NA)
Insert a function in cell B30 to calculate the total number of sales reps.
Total number of sales reps (people) = Count()
Insert a function in cell B3 to display the current date.
Current Date = Today()
● Display Current date and time
Date and time = Now()
In cell F6, enter a formula to calculate the Annual Property Tax based on the negotiated cost of the
house and the annual property tax rate. Use range names in the formula.
By Jason Ellis

Negotiated Cost=(Cost=Range Name)
Annual Property tax Rate=(ProptaxRate= Range name)
Rate is a percentage so it will always be multiplied
Range names are already given to you so you do not have to name them yourself
Difference= Subtraction
Calculate the Monthly Property Tax= (PropTax/Months=Range Names)
Anything with a date is usually division unless the instructions say otherwise
Doing anything with charts should incorporate the
1.Home Tab
2.Insert Tab
3.Chart Tools
● Design
● Layout
● Format
● Anything Pertaining to the chart you have to right click on the chart
● Category Axis has letters
● Value Axis has numbers
● Legend has colorful is bullet points and letters
How to put categories in reverse order
● Right Click on the category axis
o Click format axis
▪ Then click categories in reverse order checkbox and then click close
How to get to value units and change the major and minor units
● Right click on the value axis
o Click format axis (Display Units should be there)
▪ Major,Minor,Max,and Minimum units should be displayed

How to remove things from the chart on the category axis and value axis
● Go to The design on chart tools
o Click select data
▪ Remove category totals
● Then switch row and column data
o And then remove weekly totals
▪ And then switch row and column data back
Ctrl + Clicking on something else = Control Select
Most things on excel on a mac are usually found by hovering at the top of the window
Changing The row and column
● Click switch plot for (MAC)
● Click Switch row and column for (PC)

● Type Total Original Value in cell G1. In cell G2, enter a structured formula: If Edition Size is greater
than 0, then multiply Edition Size by Issue Price; otherwise display an empty
cell using "". Format the range G2:G105 with Accounting Number Format with zero decimal places.

=IF(Edition Size > 0,Edition Size*Issue Price,””)
● Conditional formatting
o Manage Rules
▪ New Rules
● Then go to use a formula to determine which
cells to format
o Format first
▪ Enter the conditional statement
under the edit the rule description
line
● Then add the range cells after
pressing ok
Chapter 5
● In the Subtotals worksheet, sort the data by Type and then by Name of Art, both in
alphabetical order. o Select the whole table
▪ Then click sort on the data
● ● In the Subtotals worksheet, use the Subtotals feature to identify the highest
Issue Price and Est. Value by Type. ●

● ● Insert a calculated field on the right side of the PivotTable to calculate the
percent change in values between the Est. Value and the Issue Price.

Create a custom conditional format for the Issue Price range E2:E103, with these specifications:
•4 Traffic Lights icon set (Black, Red, Yellow, Green) •Red icon when the number is greater than 1000 Number
•Yellow icon when the number is less than or equal to 1000 and greater than 500
Number
•Green icon when the number is less than or equal to 500 and greater than 250
Number
•Black icon when the number is less than or equal to 250.
1. Go to conditional formatting on the home tab
2. Go to icon sets
3. Then go to more rules for the specific formatting
Types of references
$B$24=absolute-for one range or one thing
$B24=mixed-for the column
B$24=mixed-for the row
B24=relative-just for a cell

=SUM()-Adds up a total in a range of cells
Count is usually used with numbers and not letters
CountA is used with letters
=Min()-Minimum
=Max()-Maximum
=Average()-Adds up the total and divides it by how many it added up
=Median()-Takes the middle number out of the targeted range
Average,Count,Min,Max,and Sum are found in the autosum button on the
