4. Award: 25.00 points Lake Athletics has provided you with the income Statements for two of its product lines for the year ended December 31. The Controller has asked you to perform the vertical analysis of the product lines and compare the two products. Use the information included in the Excel Simulation and the Excel functions described below to complete the task Cell Reference: Allows you to refer to data from another cell in the worksheet. From the Excel Simulation below, if in a blank coll"B" was entered the formula would output the result from cell B9, or $3,150,000 in this example. Absolute Reference: Allows you to maintain the original cell reference when a formula is copied to another cell. The cell reference is locked" by putting a dollar sion ($) before the column and row references. By default a cell reference is relative So when you copy a formula to another call the values update based on a relative reference. For example, if you copy the formula 38B9" from cell C1 to cell C2, the formula in cell C2 will relatively update to be "B9+B10" since the copied formula moved down one cell, the formula cell references also moved down one cell Conversely, by adding the absolute cell reference "locks to the equation, the formula will not change when copied to any other cell. For example, "-$B$8-SB$9" written in cell C1 is copied to cell C2, the formula in cell C2 will remain =$B$8$B$9". You can also use a mixed cell reference by only "locking the column or row only ($B8 or B$8) which locks that specific column or row and the other reference becomes a relative reference and "moves with the formula as its copied to another cell. For example, if you copy the formula-B$8+B9" from cell C1 to cell C2, the formula in cell C2 will update to be '=B$8+B10" since the copied formula moved down one cell, the formula cell relative references also moved down one cell, but the absolute 'locked" reference remained the same. Basic Math functions: Allows you to use the basic math symbols to perform mathematical functions. You can use the following keys: + (plus sign to add). - (minus sign to subtract). (asterisk sign to multiply), and / (forward slash to divide). From the Excel Simulation below on the Balance Sheet tab, if in a blank cell =B15+B16" was entered, the formula would add the values from those cells and output the result, or 1.211,250 in this example. If using the other math symbols the result would output an appropriate answer for its function. IF function: Allows you to test a condition and return a specific value is the result is true and different value if the result is false. The syntax of the IF function is "IF(test_condition, value_if_true,value_if false)" and specific considerations need to be made when using this function. The lost condition argument is an evaluation of the status of a coll, such as if the value of a cell is greater than, less than or equal to another number or cell. The value_if_true and value false arguments will return any specific result for each option, such as another cell reference, a value, or text. Throughout the entire equation, if text is being used in the lost condition, value_ir_true, or value_l_false arguments then the text itself should be entered in quotations so that Excel will recognize the text as a "string of text' instead of another function. From the Excel Simulation below, if in a blank cell "IF(89>3000000,"Sales is great."Sales is bad") was entered, the formula would output the result of the value / true since the best condition would be result as true, or in this case the text "Cash is great. Excel processes the IF function by separating it out into separate parts. First the test_condition - Excel thinks, find coll B9 and determine if the value is greater than 3000000. Once Excel determines if the result of that test condition is TRUE OR FALSE, it will return the value_i_true or value_i_false.
