CGS 1060 Miami Dade College Top Corn Mobile Sales Excel Project
In this project, you will work with sales data from Top’t Corn, a popcorn
company with an online store, multiple food trucks, and two retail stores. You will begin
by copying the sales data for one of the retail stores from another workbook. Next, you
will insert a new worksheet and enter sales data for the four food truck locations,
formatting the data, and calculating totals. You will create a pie chart to represent the
total units sold by location and a column chart to represent sales by popcorn type. You
will format the charts, and then set up the worksheet for printing. Next, you help
Top’t Corn calculate payments for a loan and decide whether or not the purchase is
a good idea. Working with the daily sales data for one of the brick-and-mortar stores, you
will apply conditional formatting to find the top 10 sales dates. You will also calculate
the sales for each date, and the average, minimum, and maximum sales. Finally, you will
work with their online sales data to format it as an Excel table and apply sorting and
filtering.

Format the data as follows: Apply the Heading 1 cell style
to cell A1. Apply the Blue fill color to
cell A1. Use the third color from the right in the
row of Standard colors. Apply the White, Background
1 font color to
cell A1. Use the first color at the left in the
first row of Theme colors. Merge and center the worksheet title across
cells A1:E1. Apply the Heading 2 cell style
to cell B2. Merge and center cells B2:E2. Bold cells B3:E3. Apply the Accounting Number
Format with 0 digits
after the decimal to cells B4:E6. AutoFit columns A:E.
Calculate total sales for each of the truck locations. Enter the word Total in cell A7.
Enter a SUM function in
cell B7 to calculate the total of
cells B4:B6. Use AutoFill to copy the formula to cells C7:E7.
Apply the Total cell style to
cells A7:E7.
Insert a pie chart (2-D Pie) to show the Old Bay sales for the month
by location. Each piece of the pie should represent the Old Bay
sales for a single
location.Note: You must complete this step
correctly in order to receive points for completing the next step. Check your work
carefully. Modify the pie chart as follows: Apply the Layout 1 Quick Layout. Move the chart so it appears below the sales data.
Insert a clustered column chart (2-D Column) to show the sales for each type of popcorn
for each location. Do not include the totals. Hint: You may need to switch
the row/column after inserting the chart.Note: You must complete this step correctly in order to receive points
for completing the next step. Check
your work carefully. Modify the column chart as follows: If necessary, modify the chart so each location is represented by a data series and
the popcorn types are listed along the x axis. Change the chart title to: August Sales by Popcorn Type
Apply the Style 5 chart Quick
Style. Display the chart data labels using the Outside
End option. If necessary, move the chart so it is next to the pie chart and the top of the
charts are aligned.
Preview how the worksheet will look when printed, and then apply print settings to
print the worksheet on a single page. Hint: If you have one of the charts selected,
deselect it before previewing the worksheet. Preview the worksheet again when you are
finished to check your work. Change the orientation so the page is wider than it is tall. Change the printing scale so all columns will print on a single page.
Top’t Corn is considering a new truck purchase. Calculate the total costof the loan. Change the color of the TruckLoan worksheet tab
to Orange. Use the third color from the left in the
row of Standard colors. Set the width of
column B to 16.
In cell B6, enter a formula to calculate the
total paid over the life of the loan (the monthly payment amount in cell B4
* the number of payments in cell B2). Use cell references.
In cell B7, enter a formula to calculate the
total interest paid over the life of the loan (the total payments in cell B6
- the original price of the truck in cell B1). Use cell
references. Apply borders using the Thick Box
Borders option around
cells A6:B7. In cell A10, type: Buy new truck?
In cell B10, enter a formula using
the IF function to
display Yes if the monthly
payment for the truck loan is less than the average sales per month for the current
trucks. Display No if it is not.
Complete the following steps in
the TysonsStore2019 worksheet: Select cells A2:A32, and apply
the Short Date date format. In cell F2, enter a formula to calculate the
daily total in dollars. Multiply the value in the Daily
Total (# Sold) column by the current price per box in
cell K1. Use an absolute reference where
appropriate and copy the formula to cells F3:F32.
In cell G2, enter a formula using
the IF function to determine
whether the daily sales goal in
cell K2 was met.
Display yes if the value in
the Daily Total ($) column
is greater than or equal to the
daily sales goal. Display no if
it is not. Use an absolute reference where appropriate and copy the formula to
cells G3:G32. Create a named range DailyTotals for
cells F2:F32. In cell K3, enter a formula using the named
range DailyTotals to calculate
the average dailysales in dollars. In cell K4, enter a formula using the named
range DailyTotals to find
the lowest daily salesin dollars. In cell K5, enter a formula using the named
range DailyTotals to find
the highest daily salesin dollars.
Go to the OnlineSales worksheet
and format the sales data as a table using the table style Orange,
Table Style Light 10. Sort the data alphabetically by values in
the Item column. Filter the table to show only rows where the value in
the State column
is DC.
