In Section 1 on the Data page, complete each column of the spreadsheet to arrive at the desired calculations. Use Excel formulas to demonstrate that you can perform the calculations in Excel. Remember, a cell address is the combination of a column and a row. For example, C11 refers to Column C, Row 11 in a spreadsheet.
Reminder: Occasionally in Excel, you will create an unintentional circular reference. This means that within a formula in a cell, you directly or indirectly referred to (back to) the cell. For example, while entering a formula in A3, you enter =A1+A2+A3. This is not correct and will result in an error. Excel allows you to remove or allow these references.
Hint: Another helpful feature in Excel is Paste Special. Mastering this feature allows you to copy and paste all elements of a cell, or just select elements like the formula, the value or the formatting.
"Names" are a way to define cells and ranges in your spreadsheet and can be used in formulas. For review and refresh, see the resources for Create Complex Formulas and Work with Functions.

1. To calculate
hourly rate, you will use the annual hourly rate already computed in Excel, which is 2080. This is the number most often used in annual salary calculations based on full time, 40 hours per week, 52 weeks per year. In E11 (or the first cell in the
Hrly Rate column), create a formula that calculates the hourly rate for each employee by referencing the employee’s salary in Column D, divided by the value of annual hours, 2080. To do this, you will create a simple formula:
=D11/2080. Complete the calculations for the remainder of Column E. If you don’t want to do this cell by cell, you can create a new formula that will let you use that same formula all the way to the end of the column. It would look like this:
=$D$11:$D$382/2080.
2. In Column F, calculate the
number of years worked for each employee by creating a formula that incorporates the date in cell F9 and demonstrates your understanding of relative and absolute cells in Excel. For this, you will need a formula that can compute absolute values to determine years of service. You could do this longhand, but it would take a long time. So, try the
YEARFRAC formula, which computes the number of years (and even rounds). Once you start the formula in Excel, the element will appear to guide you. You need to know the “ending” date (F9) and the hiring date (B11). The formula looks like this:
=YEARFRAC($F$9,B11), and the $ will repeat the formula calculation down the column as before if you grab the edge of the cell and drag it to the bottom of the column.
3. To determine if an employee is
vested or not In Column I, use an
IF statement to flag with a "Yes" any employees who have been employed 10 years or more. Here is how an IF statement works:
=IF(X is greater (or less th.

Task 1:Powers of 2, Powers of 10 (20 marks)Instructions
There is a reasonably close relationship between the powers of two and the powers of ten: 210 is a little more than 103, that is, 1024 is close to 1000. Similarly, 220 is more than 106
and the ratio is 1.049. The approximation is pretty good for a long distance though eventually it breaks down. Your task is to make a spreadsheet that shows
how good the approximation is and find the place where the ratio first becomes greater than 2.
Start your spreadsheet program (such as Excel)
Enter Data:
Put the numbers 0, 1, 2, ...,40 into column A.Put into column B a formula that will compute 2 raised to the power 10 times the value in column A. Put into column C a formula that will compute 10 raised to the power 3 times the value in column A.Put into column D a formula that will compute the ratio of B over C, that is, the ratio of how good or bad the
approximation is.Set the cell format for column D to display exactly two digits after the decimal point.
Prepare a Chart:
Select the correct range to create a chart that shows the ratio changing for the 40 rows.Use the chart wizard ("Insert>Chart>Column" or this icon ) to create a graph that shows the ratio.Move the chart so that is beside your data as shown in the picture below.

Mashing Up Data with PowerPivot*
When “Filter, Then Calculate” Does Not Work in DAX Measures
This time you need to open the file with the worksheet Sls and have it linked to the
PowerPivot window, using Add to Data Model as in the last hands-on assignment.
1. Please create a pivot table first showing the sum of sales by each representative
on each date. Now the task is made so easy. However, if you want to compare
the sales to the total sales for a month, you need to do some calculation. In DAX,
instead of using SUMIFS, you need to use Calculate. Calculate asks for an
expression and then one or more filters. For those filters, you are going to use a
special function called ALL. ALL says that you want it to look not just at one
representative’s sales for a particular date, but all the sales in the table.
2. Suppose you want to see % of Grand Total Sales. You need to create a new
measure (Hint: right click on Table1 to select Add Measure) by using
=SUM(Sls[Sales])/Calculate(SUM(Sls[Sales]), ALL(Sls)). The pivot table shows
that % of Grand Total for Bill’s sales of $851 on June 2, 2011 represents 0.9
percent of the grand total sales.
3. Now you want to calculate how Bill’s $851 sale on June 2 compared to all sales
on June 2. The numerator of the DAX measure is =SUM(Sls[Sales]). The
denominator is going to be hard. Instead of ALL(Sls), you need to ask for
AllExcept(Sls, Sls[Date]). It means go ahead and throw out all the filters except
for the Date filter. Keep filtering by date. Please create a new measure, % of
Daily Sales, by using the formula
2
=SUM(Sls[Sales])/Calculate(SUM(Sls[Sales]),AllExcept(Sls,Sls[Date])). Bill’s
$851 sales is now 25% of the daily sales on June 2, 2011.
4. You can also override the filters by specifying other filters in the Calculate
Function. The actual syntax of the Calculate function is Calculate (Expression,
[filter 1], [filter 2], [filter 3], ….). Please create a new measure, Amber Sales, to
calculate all Amber’s sales. The Calculated Field formula should be
=CALCULATE(SUM(Sls[Sales]),Sls[Rep]="Amber").
5. If Amber is the sales star in the store, perhaps you would want to show
everyone’s sales as a percentage of Amber’s Sales.
=SUM(Sls[Sales])/Calculate(SUM(Sls[Sales]), Sls[Rep]="Amber") shows sales as
a percentage of Amber’s total sales for that day. Please create such a new
measure

Mix in Time Intelligence Functions
You can apply many filters in the Calculate function. You can replace the first argument
in Calculate with MAX, MIN, AVERAGE, or any function. There are 34 Time Intelligence
functions. If you want to calculate a running month to date (MTD) total, you can use the
Calculate function and specify a filter of DatesMTD(Sls[Date]). But only for reps that
match, use AllExcept(Sls, Sls[Rep]).
1. To show MTD sales for each rep, create a new measure, MTDThisRep, using the
formula =Calculate(.

Microsoft Office Excel was never so easy to understand like now!
Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program used to organize data in grids with formulas and functions, allowing users to perform calculations, analyze data, and create charts. It provides tools for entering and manipulating data, performing calculations with functions, and creating charts to visualize data. Excel allows users to efficiently store, manipulate, and gain insights from large amounts of data.
This document provides instructions for a multi-part Excel assignment involving creating budgets and charts. Students are asked to create a spreadsheet budget showing income, expenses, and net amount for a hypothetical couple over three months. They then create a column chart visually representing the monthly expenses. Finally, they copy the budget to another sheet and change some values to demonstrate how formulas update the totals automatically. The document provides sample data and layouts to guide students and emphasizes using formulas and formatting the spreadsheets properly.

Purpose
The purpose of this assignment is for students to demonstrate proficiency in Microsoft Excel by creating
a spreadsheet that will be used to manage their own personal budget. Please note that you do not have
to include actual values for your income and expenses; you can make up values, but they should be
realistic.
Before attempting to design the spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel, students should search the Web for
sample personal budgets to learn how they might be organized in a spreadsheet. We will not provide
samples of what the finished product will look like. A main objective of this assignment is to
demonstrate how to properly organize data in an Excel spreadsheet. Microsoft Office Help, online
resources, and your instructors can help to provide proper guidance.
Content Requirements
The spreadsheet should contain, in a logical format, the following information.
1. The first part of the spreadsheet should show your income each month, for a 12-month period,
that comes from all income sources. An example is below:
Income Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June July Aug. Sep. Oct. Nov. Dec.
Employer $440 $400 $500 $560 $440 $550 $250 $390 $500 $440 $550 $300
Interest $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2
Parental
Assistance
$100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100
2. In a new row at the bottom of your income information, include a row that will display the total
income per month
3. In a new column on the right side of your income information, include a column that will display
the total income per category
4. The second part of the spreadsheet should show your estimated mandatory expenses each
month, for a 12-month period. There should be some varying values, so you do not end up with
all of the same values for every month, in every category. Mandatory expenses might include
rent or house payments, grocery bills, utilities, and car payments, but not necessarily anything
related to entertainment. An example is below:
Expenses Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June July Aug. Sep. Oct. Nov. Dec.
Rent $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500
Car Pymt. $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170
Utilities $60 $60 $60 $60 $60 $90 $90 $90 $90 $60 $60 $60
Cell Phone $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50
Groceries $50 $60 $45 $50 $65 $50 $45 $50 $50 $50 $80 $80
5. In a new row at the bottom of your expense information, include a row that displays the total
expenses per month. To receive credit for this step, you must use an Excel formula or function
to calculate the total, which should automatically recalculate if the values in the cells are
modified.
Page 2 of 6
6. In a new column on the right side of you expense information, include a column that will display
the total expense per category.
7. The third area on your spreadsheet should consist of two rows: the first row will.
1. Functions simplify formulas in Excel by performing calculations using cell references and predefined operations, rather than manually typing operations. Common functions include SUM, AVERAGE, MAX, and MIN.
2. Cell references in functions can be relative, absolute, or mixed. Relative references adjust when copied, absolute references stay fixed, and mixed references fix either the row or column.
3. Functions are copied using copy/paste or autofill, and cell references adjust depending on their type—relative references change, while absolute references stay the same.
Excel is a program used to organize, calculate, and chart data in columns and rows. Formulas in Excel begin with an equals sign (=) and can use functions like SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, and MAX to perform calculations. Spreadsheets allow you to enter data into cells, format numbers, sort data, and generate charts like pie charts, line graphs, and bar graphs to visualize information.
Formulas in Excel begin with an equal sign and include cell references and operators. Functions are predefined formulas that perform calculations using specific cell values called arguments. Both formulas and functions can be copied and will adjust cell references depending on whether they use relative, absolute, or mixed references. Functions simplify formulas by using cell ranges and built-in calculations like SUM, AVERAGE, and TODAY.
The document provides an overview of various functions in Excel that can help analyze and manipulate data. It discusses count and sum functions, logical functions like IF, AND and OR, date and time functions, text functions, lookup and reference functions like VLOOKUP and INDEX, financial functions like PMT and RATE, statistical functions, rounding functions, and array formulas. Examples are given to demonstrate how each function works and how they can be used to solve different types of problems.

Microsoft Office Excel was never so easy to understand like now!
Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program used to organize data in grids with formulas and functions, allowing users to perform calculations, analyze data, and create charts. It provides tools for entering and manipulating data, performing calculations with functions, and creating charts to visualize data. Excel allows users to efficiently store, manipulate, and gain insights from large amounts of data.
This document provides instructions for a multi-part Excel assignment involving creating budgets and charts. Students are asked to create a spreadsheet budget showing income, expenses, and net amount for a hypothetical couple over three months. They then create a column chart visually representing the monthly expenses. Finally, they copy the budget to another sheet and change some values to demonstrate how formulas update the totals automatically. The document provides sample data and layouts to guide students and emphasizes using formulas and formatting the spreadsheets properly.

Purpose
The purpose of this assignment is for students to demonstrate proficiency in Microsoft Excel by creating
a spreadsheet that will be used to manage their own personal budget. Please note that you do not have
to include actual values for your income and expenses; you can make up values, but they should be
realistic.
Before attempting to design the spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel, students should search the Web for
sample personal budgets to learn how they might be organized in a spreadsheet. We will not provide
samples of what the finished product will look like. A main objective of this assignment is to
demonstrate how to properly organize data in an Excel spreadsheet. Microsoft Office Help, online
resources, and your instructors can help to provide proper guidance.
Content Requirements
The spreadsheet should contain, in a logical format, the following information.
1. The first part of the spreadsheet should show your income each month, for a 12-month period,
that comes from all income sources. An example is below:
Income Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June July Aug. Sep. Oct. Nov. Dec.
Employer $440 $400 $500 $560 $440 $550 $250 $390 $500 $440 $550 $300
Interest $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2 $2
Parental
Assistance
$100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100
2. In a new row at the bottom of your income information, include a row that will display the total
income per month
3. In a new column on the right side of your income information, include a column that will display
the total income per category
4. The second part of the spreadsheet should show your estimated mandatory expenses each
month, for a 12-month period. There should be some varying values, so you do not end up with
all of the same values for every month, in every category. Mandatory expenses might include
rent or house payments, grocery bills, utilities, and car payments, but not necessarily anything
related to entertainment. An example is below:
Expenses Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June July Aug. Sep. Oct. Nov. Dec.
Rent $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500
Car Pymt. $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170 $170
Utilities $60 $60 $60 $60 $60 $90 $90 $90 $90 $60 $60 $60
Cell Phone $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50
Groceries $50 $60 $45 $50 $65 $50 $45 $50 $50 $50 $80 $80
5. In a new row at the bottom of your expense information, include a row that displays the total
expenses per month. To receive credit for this step, you must use an Excel formula or function
to calculate the total, which should automatically recalculate if the values in the cells are
modified.

6. In a new column on the right side of you expense information, include a column that will display
the total expense per category.
7. The third area on your spreadsheet should consist of two rows: the first row will.
1. Functions simplify formulas in Excel by performing calculations using cell references and predefined operations, rather than manually typing operations. Common functions include SUM, AVERAGE, MAX, and MIN.
2. Cell references in functions can be relative, absolute, or mixed. Relative references adjust when copied, absolute references stay fixed, and mixed references fix either the row or column.
3. Functions are copied using copy/paste or autofill, and cell references adjust depending on their type—relative references change, while absolute references stay the same.
Excel is a program used to organize, calculate, and chart data in columns and rows. Formulas in Excel begin with an equals sign (=) and can use functions like SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, and MAX to perform calculations. Spreadsheets allow you to enter data into cells, format numbers, sort data, and generate charts like pie charts, line graphs, and bar graphs to visualize information.
Formulas in Excel begin with an equal sign and include cell references and operators. Functions are predefined formulas that perform calculations using specific cell values called arguments. Both formulas and functions can be copied and will adjust cell references depending on whether they use relative, absolute, or mixed references. Functions simplify formulas by using cell ranges and built-in calculations like SUM, AVERAGE, and TODAY.
The document provides an overview of various functions in Excel that can help analyze and manipulate data. It discusses count and sum functions, logical functions like IF, AND and OR, date and time functions, text functions, lookup and reference functions like VLOOKUP and INDEX, financial functions like PMT and RATE, statistical functions, rounding functions, and array formulas. Examples are given to demonstrate how each function works and how they can be used to solve different types of problems.

For this assignment, you are provided with four video case studies (.docxsleeperharwell
For this assignment, you are provided with four video case studies (linked in the Resources). Review the cases of Julio and Kimi, and choose either Reese or Daneer for the third case. Review these two videos: •The Case of Julio: Julio is a 36-year-old single gay male. He is of Cuban descent. He was born and raised in Florida by his parents with his two sisters. He attended community college but did not follow through with his plan to obtain a four-year degree, because his poor test taking skills created barriers. He currently works for a sales promotion company, where he is tasked with creating ads for local businesses. He enjoys the more social aspects of his job, but tracking the details is challenging and has caused him to lose jobs in the past. He has been dating his partner, Justin, for five years. Justin feels it is time for them to commit and build a future. Justin is frustrated that Julio refuses to plan the wedding and tends to blame Julio’s family. While Julio’s parents hold some traditional religious values, they would welcome Justin into the family but are respectfully waiting for Julio to make his plans known. Justin is as overwhelmed by the details at home as he is at work. •The Case of Kimi: Kimi is a 48-year-old female currently separated from her husband, Robert, of 16 years. They have no children, which was consistent with Kimi’s desire to focus on her career as a sales manager. She told Robert a pregnancy would wreck her efforts to maintain her body. His desire to have a family was a goal he decided he needed to pursue with someone else. He left Kimi six months ago for a much younger woman and filed for divorce. Kimi began having issues with food during high school when she was on the dance team and felt self-conscious wearing the form-fitting uniform. During college, she sought treatment because her roommate became alarmed by her issues around eating. She never told her parents about this and felt it was behind her. Her parents are Danish and value privacy. They always expected Kimi to be independent. Her lack of communication about her private life did not concern them. They are troubled by Robert’s behavior and consider his conspicuous infidelity as a poor reflection upon their family. Kimi has moved in with her parents while she and Robert are selling the house, which has upended the balance in their relationship. For a third case, choose one of these videos: •The Case of Reese: -Reese is a 44-year-old married African American female. Her parents live in another state, and she is their only child. Her father is a retired Marine Lieutenant Colonel who was stationed both in the United States and overseas while Reese was growing up. She entered the Air Force as soon as she graduated high school at age 17 and has achieved the rank of Chief Master Sergeant. She has been married 15 years to John, and they recently discovered she is pregnant. The unexpected pregnancy has been quite disorienting for someone who has planned.
For this assignment, you are going to tell a story, but not just.docxsleeperharwell
For this assignment, you are going to tell a story, but not just any story. It will be a First Nations story, and it will be your version of it.
Choose one of the two stories at the end of this unit, either "Why the Flint-Rock Cannot Fight Back"
You can write of yourself telling one of the stories.
In telling your story, here is what you will need to consider:
Clarity of speech
Intonation
Pacing and pauses
You will also have to work out how to make this telling of the story yours. You might want to read it aloud with point form notes for a prompt or to memorize it. Perhaps you want to rewrite it so that it sounds more like your words. Maybe you will change names and place-names to those you are familiar with. If you are making a video or performing this live, you should practice facial and hand gestures as well as stance and body language. The purpose of all of this is to bring your own meaning to the story.
HERE IS THE STORY
Why the Flint-Rock Cannot Fight Back
Sto-Way’-Na—Flint—was rich and powerful. His lodge was toward the sunrise. It was guarded by Squr-hein— Crane. He was the watcher. He watched from the top of a lone tree. When anybody approached, Crane would call out and warn Flint, and Flint would come out of his lodge and meet the visitor.
There was an open flat in front of the lodge. Flint met all his visitors there. Warriors and hunters came and bought flint for arrow-points and spear-heads. They paid Flint big prices for the privilege of chipping off the hard stone. Some who needed flint for their weapons were poor and could not buy. These poor persons Flint turned away.
Coyote heard about Flint and, as he wanted some arrow-points, he asked his squas-tenk’ to help him. Squas-tenk’ refused.
“Hurry, do what I ask, or I will throw you away and let the rain wash you— wash you cold,” said Coyote, and then the power gave him three rocks that were harder than the flint-rock. It also gave him a little dog that had only one ear. But this ear was sharp, like a knife; it was a knife- ear.
Then to his wife, Mole, Coyote said: “Go and make your underground trails in the flat where Sto-way’-na lives. When you have finished and see me talking with him, show yourself so we can see you.”
Then Coyote set out for Flint’s lodge. As he got near it, he had his power make a fog to cover the land, and thick fog spread over everything. Crane, the watcher, up in the lone tree, could not see Coyote. He did not know that Coyote was around.
Coyote climbed the tree and took Crane from his high perch and broke his neck. Crane had no time to cry out. Then Coyote went on to Flint’s lodge. He was almost there when Flint’s dog, Grizzly Bear, jumped out of the lodge and ran toward him.
Coyote was not scared, and he yelled at Flint: “Stop your grizzly bear dog! Stop him, or my dog will kill him.”
That amused Flint, who was looking through the doorway. He saw that Coyote’s one-eared dog was very small, hardly a mouthful for Grizzly Bear. Fli.

Written Lecture
Does the ringisei decision-making process by consensus, which is used by the Japanese, reach the same conclusion as the top-down methods, which are used by American management? Some might label the Japanese decision-making system as simply procrastination. Others appreciate the method and expect productive outcomes. One major challenge is to build an organizational culture to adopt the practice of ringisei. If only half of an organization uses ringisei, it is likely to cause miscommunication and result in frustration.
The ringisei is based on the theory that the employee is an important part of the overall success of an enterprise. It is common to hear a lot about
empowering the employees
. Is creativity and innovation rewarded, ignored, or punished for the lower level employee in America?
Could the Japanese system of decision making have led to the controversy of what Toyota knew about unintended acceleration problems? This may be the best example of the use of silence in the Japanese culture frustrating Americans as a nation. This is not an explicit accusation of Toyota or of Japanese culture. Rather, it is inserted here to demonstrate potential consequences of management methods, processes, systems, and decision making. Read pages 106-108 of Luthans and Doh (2012) concerning this topic. The cause of the unintended acceleration problem announced by the United States government was due to bad floor mats or driver error. Initially, electronic problems were not mentioned.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the creation of images and videos, enabling the generation of highly realistic and imaginative visual content. Utilizing advanced techniques like Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and neural style transfer, AI can transform simple sketches into detailed artwork or blend various styles into unique visual masterpieces. GANs, in particular, function by pitting two neural networks against each other, resulting in the production of remarkably lifelike images. AI's ability to analyze and learn from vast datasets allows it to create visuals that not only mimic human creativity but also push the boundaries of artistic expression, making it a powerful tool in digital media and entertainment industries.

In Section 1 on the Data page, complete each column of the spreads.docx
1. In Section 1 on the Data page, complete each column of the
spreadsheet to arrive at the desired calculations. Use Excel
formulas to demonstrate that you can perform the calculations
in Excel. Remember, a cell address is the combination of a
column and a row. For example, C11 refers to Column C, Row
11 in a spreadsheet.
Reminder: Occasionally in Excel, you will create an
unintentional circular reference. This means that within a
formula in a cell, you directly or indirectly referred to (back to)
the cell. For example, while entering a formula in A3, you enter
=A1+A2+A3. This is not correct and will result in an error.
Excel allows you to remove or allow these references.
Hint: Another helpful feature in Excel is Paste Special.
Mastering this feature allows you to copy and paste all elements
of a cell, or just select elements like the formula, the value or
the formatting.
"Names" are a way to define cells and ranges in your
spreadsheet and can be used in formulas. For review and
refresh, see the resources for Create Complex Formulas and
Work with Functions.
Ready to Begin?
1. To calculate
hourly rate, you will use the annual hourly rate already
computed in Excel, which is 2080. This is the number most
often used in annual salary calculations based on full time, 40
hours per week, 52 weeks per year. In E11 (or the first cell in
the
Hrly Rate column), create a formula that calculates the
hourly rate for each employee by referencing the employee’s
salary in Column D, divided by the value of annual hours, 2080.
To do this, you will create a simple formula:
=D11/2080. Complete the calculations for the remainder
of Column E. If you don’t want to do this cell by cell, you can
create a new formula that will let you use that same formula all
2. the way to the end of the column. It would look like this:
=$D$11:$D$382/2080.
2. In Column F, calculate the
number of years worked for each employee by creating
a formula that incorporates the date in cell F9 and demonstrates
your understanding of relative and absolute cells in Excel. For
this, you will need a formula that can compute absolute values
to determine years of service. You could do this longhand, but it
would take a long time. So, try the
YEARFRAC formula, which computes the number of
years (and even rounds). Once you start the formula in Excel,
the element will appear to guide you. You need to know the
“ending” date (F9) and the hiring date (B11). The formula looks
like this:
=YEARFRAC($F$9,B11), and the $ will repeat the
formula calculation down the column as before if you grab the
edge of the cell and drag it to the bottom of the column.
3. To determine if an employee is
vested or not In Column I, use an
IF statement to flag with a "Yes" any employees who
have been employed 10 years or more. Here is how an IF
statement works:
=IF(X is greater (or less than) Y, “Answer”, IF not,
“Answer”). To create this as a formula, it would look like this:
=IF(F11>=10,"Yes","No"). You can drag this formula
down the column, or highlight the starting cell, hold down the
Shift key, and zip down to cell 382 and release, and the whole
column should compute properly.
4. Using the
VLookup function, use the
Region Key located at F417:G420 to fill in the cells in
Column N to identify the
region in which the employee is located based on the
3. state listed in Column M. (If this function is new to you— hang
in there—this one is worth it.
VLOOKUP requires that you tell Excel where to look for the
information.
=VLOOKUP(Cell value to look up, From:To, Position,
Alternate answer?) Go to the data first:
Snip is used by courtesy of Microsoft.
You will devise a formula that will match the state to a region
(in position 2). We will use the $ function to enable a repeat of
the formula down the column.
=VLOOKUP(M11,$F$417:$G$420,2,FALSE).
STEP 2
You are now ready to move into Section 2 to prepare the data
for future analysis, to include simple statistical analyses and
charts and graphs to present the data. To start, begin by
presenting categories of data in summary tables and counting
them, totaling them, and calculating percentages. This basic
analysis helps you begin to describe patterns in the data and
starts to form the story of the workforce.
Complete each table in Section 2. Use the Countif Function to
count each item in each table. Use the Sum Function to total the
tables when required. Calculate percentages for each table as
required. Format cells appropriately. Remember to make smart
use of reference cells in formulas (avoid typing in numbers or
text into formulas—point to other cells) and use mixed and
fixed cell references to make copying formulas easier/faster.
Your supervisor will look for this!

Step 3
4. You’ve summarized the data. Next, you will employ
descriptive or summary statistics to analyze the
workforce. Your summary tables described "how many?" Now
you will
calculate mean, median, and mode for the categories of
data, and derive the deviation, variance, and dispersion, and
distribution. This is where it gets interesting.
You will be working in Section 3 of the Data tab in the
spreadsheet to complete the descriptive statistics for the five
categories (salary, hourly rate, years of service, education, and
age). Using Excel formulas, complete the table.
After you have used Excel formulas to find this information,
you will next use the Toolpak to find your summary statistics.
Step 4
Your data set is now built. You will use the same functions to
perform
descriptive analysis using the Analysis Toolpak. This is
a handy feature to know. Remember that there may be some
minor differences in the answers depending on the version you
use.
You should now have Tab 2: Excel Summary Stats complete.
Next, you'll create charts and a histogram for Tabs 3 and 4.
Step 5
Where would we be without the ability to view data in charts? It
is sometimes easier to grasp the context of data if we can see it
captured in an image. You will
work with data to create charts, adding a tab for charts
and another for a histogram.
5. In this step, you will build Tab 3: Graphs—Charts and Tab 4:
Histogram. After you complete these tabs, you'll be ready to
sort the data. It is often helpful to view and interpret analytical
results when they are presented visually. Graphs and charts help
readers digest and interpret information quickly, consistent with
the familiar adage "a picture is worth a thousand words." Let’s
see what we can see in your data analysis.
Create the following graphs in your workbook on a separate tab
named Graphs_Charts:
1. Create separate pie charts that show percentages of
employees by (1) gender, (2) education level, and (3) marital
status. Explore pie chart formats.
2. Create separate bar charts that show the (1) number of
employees by race and (2) the number of employee per state.
3. Create a line graph for the sales summary provided.
4. Create a histogram that shows the number of employees in
incremental salary ranges of $10,000. Here, you want to show
how many employees are making $0–$20,000; $20,001–
$30,000; $30,001–$40,000; and so forth, up to the highest
salary range. This involves counting how many employees are
in each "salary bucket" to create a frequency distribution table
and histogram. Histograms seem hard, but mastering how to
visualize the frequency of events is helpful for analysis.
Used with permission from Microsoft.
Note: Your Excel spreadsheet template has the upper limit and
labels already identified. Complete the table and histogram by
engaging the Data Analysis Toolpak. Place the output on a new
worksheet and label it Histogram.
Step 6
You've accomplished a lot with your data set, summary stats,
charts, and histograms. Another skill you'll need is sorting data
in an Excel worksheet for reporting purposes. You’ll
copy and sort the data. This is a useful skill that applies
6. to any use of Excel.
In this step, you will create Tab 5: Sorted Data. When you're
finished, you'll be ready to conduct your quantitative analysis.
Here is an example of a sorted spreadsheet:
Many times we want to sort data on an Excel worksheet for
reporting purposes. Let’s see what other perspectives the
functions of sorting and subtotaling yield.
1. Begin by following the steps in the “How to Copy Excel 2010
Sheet to Another Sheet” provided below. This will allow you to
retain your work for Steps 2 through 7. Place the sheet at the
end of the workbook and title the tab "Sorted Data."
2. Delete all rows containing Section 2 and Section 3 work. Be
sure to leave the section in cells F417:I422, as this section is
referenced for the Vlookup function populating the region;
otherwise, you will get a #N/A or #REF! Error in the column for
region.
3. Apply the ability to sort data on each column of the
spreadsheet, so that you can sort by employee #, hire date, role,
etc.
4. Experiment with the filter funnel, sorting the data by various
columns. For example, try sorting by employee number from
smallest to largest. Try sorting by role in ascending order (A-
Z).
5. Sort the spreadsheet by region.
6. Employ the subtotal feature to subtotal the salary for each
region, with a grand total for the company.
7. Format the entire spreadsheet to print, so that the columns fit
on the pages, and Row 1 repeats on each page.
Step 7
In this step, your hard work bears fruit. What does it all mean?
Think back to your boss's reasons for tasking you with this
project. Use your powers of analysis to determine what the data
may be telling you. Apply your quantitative reasoning skills by
7. answering the questions provided in the resource and writing a
short essay.
After you answer the questions, your short essay should include
· a one-paragraph narrative summary of your findings,
describing patterns of interest;
· an explanation of the potential relevance of such patterns; and
· a description of how you would investigate further to
determine if your results could be perceived as good or bad for
the company.
You will prepare your responses in your workbook on the tab
labeled QR/Questions and Answers. Type in your answers to the
questions and your final essay in the textbox. Then move
the QR/Questions and Answers tab to the first tab position (to
the left of the Data tab) when you have finished.
Good luck! In the next step, you'll submit your workbook and
analysis.
What it should contain in the end
You’re now ready to submit your workbook and analysis.
Review the requirements for the final deliverable to be sure you
have:

Rokeach Values Survey
Developed by Milton Rokeach in 1973, the purpose of the
Rokeach Values Survey is to classify human values and help
individuals better understand what is important to them. Values
themselves are not seen, instead one can see the behaviors
associated with what people value.
There are two types of values in this survey:
·
Terminal Values: Terminal values represent desired end
states. Something a person would like to achieve in their own
9. lifetime. Examples would be true friendship, mature love,
national security, world peace, salvation, a comfortable life.
Terminal values are achievable items.
·
Instrumental Values: Instrumental values represent
“modes of behavior.” In other words, they are means of
achieving your terminal values. (Think of these values as
instruments by which you accomplish your terminal values).
Examples include ambition, love, self-control, politeness,
honesty, independence. The focus of instrumental values is on
acting in a manner to achieve the value.
Complete a Rokeach Values Survey for yourself by ranking the
Rokeach Values listed in the table below in order of importance.
Focus on only one set of values at a time.
·
Ranking Terminal Values: Begin by focusing only on
the list of terminal values. Select the value that is most
important to you. As you go through the list of terminal values,
rank each value from most to least importance for you with 1
being most important and 18 being least important to you. Work
through the list of terminal values until all terminal values are
assigned a ranking.
·
Ranking Instrumental Values: When you have finished
ranking your terminal values, proceed to the list of instrumental
values, and rank each in the same way as your terminal values
with a ranking of 1 for the most important instrumental value,
and 18 for the least important instrumental value.
Once you have completed ranking all 18 terminal values and all
18 instrumental values, make sure to make note of both your top
values in each category. You will submit a copy of the
completed survey to the assignment dropbox.

Personal Model of Leadership
13. -Instructions-
Throughout this course, you will create a personal model of
leadership based on your research and reflections on what you
learn during the 15 weeks.
What is a personal model of leadership?
Leadership is an important dimension of personal growth and
development. Developing leadership qualities is a complex
process that involves much more than simply selecting an
appealing leadership model or participating in leadership
training. Creating a satisfying personal model of leadership,
which reflects one’s values and beliefs and impacts how one
affects organizations, communities, and society, is a lifelong
process.
What approach should I take to complete my personal
leadership model?
Building a personal leadership model can be approached from
both a systematic and holistic perspective. It also requires
creativity, passion, and a framework that leaders can use as they
explore various models of leadership over their lifetimes. The
process of creating a personal model involves continuously
exploring and analyzing various leadership models. You will
find certain elements of these models appealing and might
choose to integrate them into your own model. Others you will
not want to include. It is important to weigh the elements
against your own system of values and beliefs and select the
ones that will most enrich your own model and the lives of
those whom you lead.
What do I use to develop my personal model of leadership?
As you explore various leadership models, utilize the table
provided below to breakdown, select, and record their appealing
elements. You will complete the table as you move through the
process of developing your leadership model throughout the
14. course. This table will serve as a starting point or outline as you
think through your personal model of leadership and write your
paper.
How do I develop my personal model of leadership?
Creating a leadership model involves the following:
1. Select the basic values that will provide the foundation and
identify the leadership behaviors that will result from those
values. As you select values for your own model, link each one
you choose to one of these following four perspectives:
a. Values that guide you from an individual or “I” perspective.
b. Values that guide you from an interpersonal perspective.
c. Values that guide you from an organizational perspective.
d. Values that guide you from a societal perspective.
2. Identify a clear approach for creating a sense of meaning and
purpose, including contributing to society. You will consider
why the values you selected are meaningful and how you can
utilize them to contribute to the greater good. Also, identify the
impact of one’s contributions to self, others, organizations, and
society. You will consider how the behaviors that result from
your foundation of values impact the world around you in a
positive and meaningful way.
Two Parts to Creating Your Personal Model of Leadership
You will write your personal model of leadership in two parts.
You will submit Part 1 in Topic 5 and receive feedback from
your instructor. You will write Part 2 in Topic 8 and combine it
with Part 1 and your instructor feedback to create one integrated
personal model of leadership (1,250-1,500 words). The 2 parts
involved in creating your personal model of leadership are as
follows:
Part 1:
15. Select the basic values that will provide the foundation of your
model and discuss the leadership behaviors that will result from
those values. Be sure to select values from each of the
following four levels: individual, interpersonal, organizational,
and societal. You will complete the “Rokeach Values Survey” to
assist you in selecting your values.
Part 2:
Identify how your personal model of leadership helps you to
create a sense of meaning and purpose for yourself, others,
organizations, and society. Then, identify the impact of your
contributions to self, others, organizations, and society.
Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found
in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
An abstract is not required.
This assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using
the rubric to grade the assignment; therefore, students should
review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become
familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for
successful completion of the assignment
You are required to submit this assignment to Turnitin.
Is there an example that I may follow to craft my leadership
model?
Below are definitions and an example you can follow as you use
the provided table to think through and develop your own
personal model of leadership.
Definitions
Values and beliefs: A value or belief describes something that is
important to you. It fits into the sentence: “I value…” Examples
include integrity, respect, trust, high performance, making an
impact, and a clean environment.
Behaviors and action: A behavior describes the visible actions
16. that demonstrate (or are based on) a value. For example, if you
believe in “trust” as a value, then the behavior may be, “I
always keep private information shared with me in confidence
to myself.”
Clear approach for creating meaning and purpose: This is the
sense of meaning or purpose that you focus on based on your
values. So if you value protecting the environment, you might
outline your approach for contributing to an organization that
protects wildlife.
Impact: Impact is attaining positive results or improvements in
your area of focus. So if you are working in a wildlife
organization, it could be saving the lives of wildlife or
protecting a particular ecosystem.

QR Questions_Responses
Apply Quantitative Reasoning
Now that you have completed your analysis, think about the
patterns you have seen in the workforce.
In this final section, you will answer five questions and write a
short essay.
1. From the created histogram, it appears that a large share of
employees have a salary between $61,000–$110,000 or
$131,000–$170,000. This may indicate a reasonable promotion
rate for new and seasoned employees. Is this distribution
unimodal or bimodal? Please explain.
2. The line chart, as detailed in your "Graph Charts" Excel
spreadsheet, shows sales generally increasing over the years,
although sales in the first two years were notably lower.
Assuming that the sales are linear, please use the Forecast tool
to find projected sales for 2020 thru 2024. Hint: An easy way to
do this is to highlight the sales from the data page and apply the
Forecast tool to this data or use the forecast function in excel.
You will generate a chart on a new sheet with projected sales;
rename this sheet "Projected Sales".
3. The standard deviation provides insight into the distribution
of values around the mean. If the standard deviation is small, in
general, the more narrow the range between the lowest and
highest value. That is, values will cluster close to the mean.
From your descriptive statistics, describe your standard
deviations of Salary, Hryly Rate, Yrs Worked, Education, and
Age. What does this tell you about the variables?
4. The company has a keen interest in the educational, race, and
gender makeup of its workforce. Its emphasis is on a diverse,
dynamic workforce. From your "Graph Charts" spreadsheet,
describe your pie chart findings for these characteristics of the
workforce. Describe how you would determine if the company
20. was meeting expectations on these characteristics.
5. The company is conducting an analysis on how many
positions to create to keep up with demand. Specifically, it
wants to know an estimate of the number of positions per job
title. From your Excel chart, identify the mode of the job title
distribution. Describe your findings.
FINAL ESSAY:
Now that you have done all the work with data, you will write a
short three- to four-paragraph summary of your analysis. This is
important. While you have done a wonderful job with your
analysis, you can never assume that the end user will be able to
interpret the data the way it should be understood. Supporting
narrative is helpful. Never simply provide a "raw data" dump.
Instead, seek to provide information!
Structure your essay like this:
a. Write a one-paragraph narrative summary of your findings,
describing patterns of interest.
b. Provide an explanation of the potential relevance of such
patterns.
c. Provide a description of how you would investigate further to
determine if your results are "good or bad" for the company.
Prepare your response in this workbook. (Simply expand this
text box to accommodate your essay and other answers, or you
can copy and paste from another document.)
