image text in transcribed
Create a PivotTable using this data to show the Total Fair Value and Total Cost for each investment category for the year 2020 only.
Place Investment Category in rows. Place both Fair Value and Cost in values and ensure the SUM is being calculated for both.
Place Year in filters and filter the years to show 2020 only.
Format Fair Value and Cost columns to modify the custom name for each and display data as accounting format with zero decimals.
(for Fair Value, from the values field, select "Sum of Fair Value" and choose "Value Field Settings" (last option in the list). Change custom name to
"Total Fair Value", then click on number format, choose accounting, and reduce to 0 decimals. Repeat steps for Cost (custom name: "Total Cost").
Change "Row Labels" header to "Investment Category" (modify this label by typing directly in the cell).
Create a PivotChart using this newly created PivotTable. With your cursor on the PivotTable, click on Insert from the top menu, then PivotChart.
Choose Combo Chart (clustered column and line chart - see image for assistance). Ensure Fair Value will be the clustered column and Cost will
be the line. Position your PivotChart to beside your PivotTable.
Add a proper Chart Title ("2020 Investments - Fair Value vs. Cost") and hide all field buttons (PivotChart Analyze/Field Buttons/Hide All).
Move legend to the bottom.
