Adds the individual numbers or the numbers included in the range(s). - ✅✅SUM() Counts the number of cells in a range of cells that contain numbers. - ✅✅COUNT() Counts the number of cells in a range of cells that are not blank - ✅✅COUNTA() Calculates the simple average of a set of numbers - ✅✅AVERAGE() Returns the largest value in a set of numbers - ✅✅MAX() Returns the smallest value in a set of numbers - ✅✅MIN() Calculates the interest rate earned for an investment - ✅✅RATE() Calculates the annual percentage rate for an interest rate - ✅✅EFFECT() Calculates the number of payments that will be made to pay off a loan - ✅✅NPER() Calculates the payment amount for a loan - ✅✅PMT() Calculates the current value of an investment (accounting for compound interest) - ✅✅PV() Calculates the future value of an investment - ✅✅FV()
Combines Boolean expressions to determine if ALL of the combined expressions are TRUE - ✅✅AND() Combines Boolean expressions to determine if ANY of the combined expressions are TRUE - ✅✅OR() Check to see if a Boolean expression is not evaluated as TRUE - ✅✅NOT() Build on Boolean logic and specify the results depending on the results of the Boolean expression - ✅✅IF() Determine (count) the number of cells within a range of cells that contain a specific value - ✅✅COUNTIF() Calculate the total (sum) for a set of values that match a specific criterion - ✅✅SUMIF() Calculate the average for a set of values that match a specific criterion - ✅✅AVERAGEIF() Returns the related value from the specified column after finding the match in the first column - ✅✅VLOOKUP() Returns the related value from the specified row after finding the match in the first row - ✅✅HLOOKUP() The length, in number of characters, of a block of text - ✅✅LEN() The position of a specific character, word, or phrase within a block of text - ✅✅SEARCH()
rate (cell C13) divided by 12. Dividing the interest rate by 12 results in the monthly interest rate. This formula is reusable. The interest for a given period is always the monthly interest rate times the balance from the previous period. [3 points] - ✅✅In the proper cell do the following: ={select the field mark balance}{select field marked interest rate - be sure to add a $ in the field because you do not want the interest rate to change at all}/ EXAMPLE: =F19C$13/ ^^ Copy the principal amount calculation down to complete the "principal" column of the amortization table. [2 points] - ✅✅Simply click the corner of the field you want to copy, then highlight all the fields you want it to copy to and let go. It will copy down ^^ Calculate, in cell F20, the balance for period 1. The balance is the difference between the balance for period 0 (cell F19) and the principal amount for period 1 (cell E20). This formula is reusable. The balance is always calculated as the difference between the balance from the previous period and the principal amount for the current period. - ✅✅Follow the instructions carefully Example =F19-E ^^ Calculate the total interest paid in cell G13. The total interest paid is the sum of all interest paid in the "Interest" column of the amortization table. - ✅✅=sum(highlight from start to finish all the fields you are adding together) Example: =SUM(D20:D67) ^^ Check to see if the total interest calculation in the amortization table is correct. The total interest paid is equal to difference between total amount paid over the course of the loan and original loan amount. Insert a formula into cell G14 to calculate
the difference between the total amount paid and the original loan amount. Notice the negative sign associated with the original loan amount. This value should equal the total interest calculated using the amortization table - ✅✅={select field of total overall amount paid} + {select original loan amount, you are doing + to offset the fact that the loan amount in this case is a negative number). This balance should equal total interest paid Example: =G12+C ^^ Use the HLOOKUP function to complete the "Hourly Wage" column of table 1. Use the "Employee" column of table 1 as the lookup_value and the "Employee Wage Information" above table 1 as your reference table. - ✅✅in the first open hourly wage column enter: =HLOOKUP([select the filed with the first employee name in it], [highlight the full employee wage table -adding $ after the letters of the fields so that the selected employee wage doe snot change], [enter which row you want to pull the hourly wage from, in this case it was row 2], [enter the word FALSE because you want an EXACT match] Example: =HLOOKUP(D16,D$11:H$12,2,FALSE) ^^ Use the AND function to complete the "Time Bonus?" column of table 1. An employee earns a time bonus if the project's "Hours Worked" are fewer than the "Estimated Hours" and if the work "Quality" is greater than 1 - ✅✅=and([select the field for hours worked]<[select field for estimated hours],[select field for quality]>1) Example=AND(E161) ^^ Use the OR function to complete the "Outcome Bonus?" column of table 1. An employee earns an outcome bonus if the difficulty of a job is greater than 3 or if the quality of their work is
field for hours worked]<=[enter field for estimated hours],[enter field for quality]>1),"Good Job",IF(enter field hours worked]>[enter field estimated hours],"Too Much Time","Poor Quality")) Example =IF(AND(E16<=C16,H16>1),"Good Job",IF(E16>C16,"Too Much Time","Poor Quality")) ^^ Use the VLOOKUP function to complete the "Employee" column of table 2. Use "Job ID" from table 2 as your lookup_value(s) and table 1 as the reference table. - ✅✅=vlookup([enter job id field], [enter range that covers the job id through the employee name], [tell the computer which column from the range would you pull the name from - in this case it is the 3rd column] Example: =VLOOKUP(B40,B$16:D$35,3) ^^ Use the VLOOKUP function to complete the "Difficulty" column of table 2. Again, use "Job ID" from table 2 as the lookup_value(s) and table 1 as the reference table. - ✅✅=vlookup([enter job id field], [enter range that covers the job id through the difficulty ^remember the $ so the range doesn't change], [tell the computer which column from the range would you pull the name from - in this case it is the 6th column] Example: =VLOOKUP(B40,B$16:G$35,6) ^^ Use the COUNTIF function to complete the "# of Jobs" column in table 3. Reference the appropriate field in table 1 as your range and the "Employee" names in table 3 as your criteria. - ✅✅=countif([enter range of table to include employee name - do not forget the $ between the letter and number so that the range does not change], enter field showing employee name) Example: =COUNTIF(B$16:D$35,G39)
^^ Use the SUMIF function to complete the "Total Hours" column in table 3. Reference the appropriate field in table 1 as your range and the "Employee" names in table 3 as your criteria. - ✅✅=sumif([select range of employee name], select the field that holds the employee name in table 3,[select range of total hours]) Do not forget the $ to make sure the ranges do not adjust Example: =SUMIF(D$16:D$35,G39,E$16:E$35) ^^ Use the SUMIF function to complete the "Total Pay" column in table 3. Reference the "Employee" field in table 1 as your range, the "Employee" names in table 3 as your criteria, and the "Total Pay" field in table 1 as your sum_range. - ✅✅=sumif([select range of employee name], select the field that holds the employee name in table 3,[select range of total pay]) Do not forget the $ to make sure the ranges do not adjust Example: =SUMIF(D$16:D$35,G39,N$16:N$35)
