If the active cell is not in Column A, the user will have more than 2 panes. If the active cell is in Row 1, the user will get two vertical panes. You are in cell A1 and start a formula by typing = in a worksheet with split top and bottom panes. In order to jump to the bottom pane while working on the formula: Hit Tab Hit F Hit Alt F
Hit Alt Tab - answer -The correct answer is: Hit F Tab will navigate to the next cell. Alt F6 is not a valid shortcut. Alt Tab will navigate to a different window. See lesson: Splitting & Freezing Panes Identify the commands to insert a comment and delete a comment 1)Alt e m 2) Alt e m 1)Alt h e m 2) Alt I m 1)Shift F2 2) Alt h e m 1)Alt h e m 2) Alt I s - answer -The correct answer is Shift F2, Alt h e m.

Identify a function in cell D6 that will return the fraction of the year elapsed assuming a 360 day count basis. =STUB(D4,D5) =YEARFRAC(D4,D5,2) =DAYS360(D4,D5) =YEARFRAC(D4,D5) - answer -The correct answer is: =YEARFRAC(D4,D5,2). STUB is not an Excel formula. DAYS360 will return the number of days in a 360 day year.
YEARFRAC(D4,D5) will calculate the fraction using a 365-day year. Identify the formula that will always output a date that is the end-of-month date 3 months after the date inputted in D5. =DATE(YEAR(D5),MONTH(D5)+3,DAY(D5)) =EOMONTH(3,D5) =EOMONTH(D5,3) - answer -The correct answer is: =EOMONTH(D5,3) =DATE(YEAR(D5),MONTH(D5)+3,DAY(D5)) will add 3 months to the data inputted in D5.

All of the above - answer -The correct answer is: All of the above. This question uses a nested IF statement.

These logical tests can be in any order. Identify the best formula that will output 2016 expenses. Hint: Only select the 'range lookup' argument if it is necessary. =HLOOKUP(2016,B2:D4,2,0) =HLOOKUP(2016,A1:D4,3) =HLOOKUP("Expenses",A1:D4,2) =HLOOKUP(2016,B2:D4,2) - answer -The correct answer is: =HLOOKUP(2016,A1:D4,3)
=HLOOKUP(2016,B2:D4,2,0) will not result in a valid output because 2016 is not selected in the table array argument. =HLOOKUP("Expenses",A1:D4,2) will result in a #NAME error because "Expenses" is not a horizontal lookup reference. =HLOOKUP(2016,B2:D4,2) will reference the Revenue line rather than the expenses line because the third argument references the row 2 in the table array. Identify the formula that will output 2016 expenses (55). =OFFSET(B1,3,2) =OFFSET(B1,2,3) =OFFSET(A1,2,2) =OFFSET(A1,3,3) - answer -The correct answer is: =OFFSET(A1,2,2) =OFFSET(B1,3,2) will return 65. =OFFSET(B1,2,3) will return (75). =OFFSET(A1,3,3) will return 55.
