You manage a publishing company that publishes and sells books to bookstores in Austin. Your assistant prepared a standard six-month royalty statement for one author. You need to insert formulas, format the worksheets, and then prepare royalty statements for other authors.

Enter Data into the Worksheet You need to enter and format a title, enter the date indicating the end of the statement period, and then delete a blank column. You also need to insert a row for the standard discount rate row, a percentage that you discount the books from the retail price to sell to the bookstores.

a. Open the eO 1 cl royal workbook and save it as eO 1 cl royal_LastnameFirstname.

b. Type Royalty Statement in cell Al. Merge and center the . title over the four data columns. Select 16 pt size, and apply Purple font color.

d. Delete the blank column between the Hardback and Paperback columns.

e. Insert a new row between Retail Price and Price to Bookstore. Enter Standard Discount Rate, 0.55, and 0.5. Format the two values as Percent Style.

Calculate Values You need to insert formulas to perform necessary calculations.

a. Enter the Percent Returned formula in the Hardback column. The percent returned indicates the percentage of books sold but returned to the publisher.

b. Enter the Price to Bookstore formula. This is the price at which you sell the books to the bookstore and is based on the retail price and the standard discount. For example, if a book has a $10 retail price and a 55% discount, you sell the book for $4.50.

c. Enter the Net Retail Sales formula. The net retail sales is the revenue from the net units sold at the retail price. Gross units sold minus the returned units equals net units sold.

d. Select the individual labels within each section (e.g., Gross Units Sold) and indent the labels twice. Widen column A as needed.

e. Select the rangeA7:ClO (the Units Sold section), and then apply the Outside Borders border style. Apply the same border style to the Pricing and Royalty Information sections.

Manage the Workbook You want to duplicate the royalty statement worksheet to use as a model to prepare a royalty statement for another author. You will apply page setup options and insert a header on both worksheets.

Creating and formatting a basic spreadsheet
You are a sales representative at the local fitness center, Buff and Tuff Gym. Your manager expects each representative to track weekly new membership data, so you created a spreadsheet to store data. Membership costs are based on membership type. Clients can rent a locker for an additional annual fee. You are required to collect a down payment based on membership type, determine the balance, and then calculate the monthly payment based on a standard interest rate. In addition , you need to calculate general statistics to summarize for your manager. Spot-check results to make sure you created formulas and functions correctly.

Perform Preliminary Work You need to open the starting workbook you created, acknowledge the existing circular reference error, and assign a range name to the membership lookup table. You will correct the circular reference error later.

a. Open the e02clgym workbook, click Help, read about circular references, close the Help window that appears, and save the workbook as e02clgym_LastnameFirstname.

b. Assign the name Membership to the range Al8:C20.

c. Insert a function to display the current date in cell B2.

Calculate Cost, Annual Total, and Total Due You are ready to calculate the basic annual membership cost and the total annual cost. The basic annual membership is determined based on each client's membership type, using the lookup table.

a. Insert a function in cell CS to display the basic annual membership cost for the first client.

b. Use a function to calculate the annual total amount, which is the sum of the basic cost and locker fees for those who rent a locker. The Locker column displays Yes for clients who rent a locker and No for those who don't.

c. Calculate the total amount due for the first client based on the annual total and the number of years in the contract.

d. Copy the three formulas down their respective columns.

Determine the Down Payment and Balance You need to collect a down payment based on the type of member- ship for each new client. Then you must determine how much each client owes.

a. Insert the function to display the amount of down payment for the first client.

b. Find and correct the circular reference for the balance. The balance is the difference between the total due and the down payment.

c. Copy the two formulas for the rest of the clients.

Calculate the Monthly Payment Clients pay the remainder by making monthly payments. Monthly payments are based on the number of years specified in the client's contract and a standard interest rate.

a. Insert the function to calculate the first client's monthly payment, using appropriate relative and absolute cell references.

b. Copy the formula down the column.

c. Edit the formula by changing the appropriate cell reference to a mixed cell reference. Copy the formula down.

Finalize the Workbook You need to perform some basic statistical calculations and finalize the workbook with formatting and page setup options.

a. Calculate totals on row 14.

b. Insert the appropriate functions in the Summary Statistics section of the worksheet: cells Hl8:H22. Format the payments with Accounting Number Format, and format the number of new members appropriately.

c. Format the other column headings on rows 4 and 17 to match the fill color in the range El7:Hl7. Wrap text for the column headings.

d. Format the monetary values for Andrews and the total row with Accounting Number Format. Use zero decimal places for whole amounts, and display two decimal places for the monthly payment. Apply Comma Style to the internal monetary values. Underline the values before the totals, and then apply Double Accounting Underline (found in the Format Cells dialog box) for the totals.

e. Set 0.3" left and right margins, and then ensure the page prints on only one page.

f. Insert a footer with your name on the left side, the date code in the center, and the file name code on the right side.

g. Save and close the workbook, and submit based on your instructor's directions.
