Problems

1) Insert a Pivot Table into a new worksheet using the Problem 1 Data that shows, for each school, the total enrollment, average grant aid (in percentages) and the average overall debt (in currency). Add filters for state as well as overall rank.

Rename the pivot table sheet "Problem 1 Answer".

2) Insert a worksheet and create a Loan Amortization table like the one we did in class for a $165,000 mortgage at a 4.9% interest rate with a 30 year fixed term.

Show the monthly payment schedule for the length of the loan.

Format all your monetary fields to currency.

In cell D2, calculate the additional payment you'd make each month if you rounded your payment to $1400.00
In cell D3, put the number of payments you would take off the end of the mortgage by rounding.
In cell D4, translate that to the number of years those payments represent.
Rename your worksheet "Problem 2 Answer".

3) Copy the Problem 3A Data sheet. Rename the copy "Problem 3 Answer".

Use a formula to combine the first and last name (with a space between them) in Column C. (Do this for all the names)

Copy Column C and paste values in Column D.

Use a lookup formula in Column E to populate the numeric grade from the Problem 3B Data sheet based on the information in Column D

Copy Column E and paste values in Column F.

In column G, write an IF formula to convert each of the numeric grades to an letter grade, using the following grade scale:

Copy column G and paste values in Column H

Add the following column headers to each column:

Last Name First Name Full Name Pasted Full Name Calculated Numeric Grade Numeric Grade Calculation

Insert a pivot table into the same worksheet, in cell J3, to show how many of each letter grade there are.

Insert a chart (based on the pivot table), below the pivot table. Use a 2D clustered chart and add data labels.

Note** I know that we didn't do charts in class, but it was covered both in your book and in the sample excel dashboard section.

4) Copy the Problem 4 Data sheet. Rename the copy "Problem 4 Answer".

Record a macro (name your macro Problem 4) to do the following:
Insert two columns between the Name and Numeric Grade columns.
Use Text to Columns on the Name column to split the name in two columns and get rid of the comma.
Use a formula to combine the first and last name (with a space between them) in Column C. (Do this for all the names)

In column E, write an IF formula to convert each of the numeric grades to an letter grade, using the following grade scale:

Copy column E and paste values in Column F
Add the following column headers to each column:
Last Name First Name Full Name Numeric Grade Calculation Letter Grade

5) Copy the Problem 5 Data sheet. Rename the copy "Problem 5 Answer".

Make it so the colored cells cannot be negative.
Make it so the Employee Incentives field can also not be more than 25% of Employee Benefits
The maximum amount allowed for Small Equipment should be 700.
Add a warning to Small Equipment that stops the entry - title it Maximum Amount Exceeded with a message that reads:
"Small equipment cannot be more than 700 dollars - anything greater is considered a capital outlay."
Make only the colored cells editable. No other cells should be allowed to be selected or altered without the password "cis360".
