- You will need to submit an Excel file for your assignment – not another type of file.
- The Excel file must allow me to see the formulas and functions used in order to qualify for credit. So if a question asks for the average body weight of the cars, and only the answer is provided and not the equation itself, full credit cannot be granted.
- You can ask questions on this assignment in the discussion forum, but responses should provide direction, not the answer themselves. (e.g. review the module on SumIf() function)
- The work you submit must be your own. 0 credit will be earned if the work submitted is not your own.
Submit
Your submission must include the following:
- The theme as specified by the assignment
- Use of AutoSum function
- A Clustered Column Chart that shows:Month NamesProject Names
- All required formatting
- Accounting Number format where required
- A footer as the assignment dictates
- Multiple Sheets
When You Are Finished
- When you upload your XLSX assignment file, be sure you keep it in the same format/structure as the original assignment file.
- Be sure to add your last name to the assignment submission.
Important Note
- Since there are multiple ways to accomplish goals in Excel, make sure you use the learning modules within the course to answer and solve these problems. To ensure full credit, you must demonstrate that you’re using the elements taught in the learning modules. Let me know if you have any questions about this.
Please do not wait until the last minute to ask questions. Ideally, students can work through this assignment while reviewing the learning modules.
