Totals:
 You have a candle company with 6 types of candles as shown in the table.

Cost
a.) The spreadsheet has an order form which lists the size, shape, and quantity of
each candle. Before we can look up the price of each candle in the table we need to
establish what the column number should be for the 3 rd argument of the VLOOKUP
function. To do this use a simple IF function which checks IF the shape = “Cylinder”,
THEN the column number is 2, ELSE it is 3.

b.) Now determine what the price for each candle is using a VLOOKUP function.
Make sure to look for exact match. Compute the costs for each candle.

c.) Finally compute the total number of candles ordered and compute the total cost
of the order, giving a 20% discount IF the number of candles is 20 or more.

You run a company with 6 employees. Create a spreadsheet that keeps track of
the hours each employee works and determines their weekly salary. If they
work 40 hours or less they simply get their hourly wage times the number of
hours worked. If they work overtime, anything over 40 hours gets paid time
and a half; so 2 overtime hours gets paid for 3 hours worked.

a.) Compute the hours worked for the week for each employee.

b.) Enter a formula which computes the hours worked over 40 for each
employee. If they worked less than 40 hours this formula should return 0.

c.) Enter a formula which computes the total weekly wage for the employees.
The formula should give time and half for any hours worked over 40. Format as
currency.

b.) Next you are given courses for this semester, credit hours for each course and
letter grades for the courses. Use the VLOOKUP function to convert the letter grades
to numbers, compute your quality points (credits times 4 point scale).

c.) Compute the GPA (quality points per credit) for the semester. Remember the GPA
is a weighted average of your 4 point scale grades weighted by the credits.

 You are teaching a seminar with 2 exams @ 25% each, 5 homework assignments @ 6%
#NAME? each, and a final exam worth 20% of the grade. You have all grades entered into the
spreadsheet.
Final

74

98 a.) Compute the average, out of the 80 possible points, before the final exam for each
student. This should be a weighted average.

GRADE
88.03 b.) If a student has an average of 90 or above they get an A for the course and do not
83.61 have to take the final else they need to take the final. The final exam grades have
been entered for those students who need to take the final. Enter an IF function
94.525 which computes the students’ grade in the course: IF they have an average under 90%
74.82 then compute their weighted average using the grade on the final exam, else their
grade is just their average.
93.7625

GRADE
B+ c.) Enter a VLOOKUP formula in the grade column which will compute the student’s
B final letter grade for the course using the cutoffs given in the table.
