Sheet 1: Format the Data on Excel

This worksheet contains the data necessary to all the other worksheets. List on this worksheet all of the data shown above, clearly labeled. None of the other worksheets should contain any numbers; they should contain ONLY FORMULAS- all cells on the other worksheets should be linked to cells in the data worksheet, cells within the same worksheet, or cells in the other worksheets. For example, the cell for direct labor cost for July should contain a formula that multiplies the production in units for July (from the production schedule) times the labor hours per unit (from the data worksheet) times the hourly wage rate (from the data worksheet). So if the sales estimate for console tables changes, you should be able to make the change only on the data worksheet; all the other worksheets should automatically adjust to the changes. The production units will change; the manufacturing costs will change, etc. The data worksheet can be in any format; just be sure to label each data item clearly.
