PROJECT STEPS
1. Rebecca Fox is the budget director for Starpex Communications, a company based in
Dover, Delaware, that provides broadband and cellular service throughout the country.
Rebecca has started to create an Excel workbook that provides a snapshot of the annual
budget for a satellite office in Tacoma Park, Maryland, and lists charitable contribution
suggestions from employees. She asks you to update the workbook to make it easier to
use.
Go to the Annual Budget worksheet. In the range C5:C17, use Conditional Formatting
Highlight Cells Rules to format duplicate values in Light Red Fill with Dark Red Text.
Delete the row containing the first duplicate value.
2. In cell F5, insert a formula without using a function that subtracts the actual Advertising
amount (cell D5) from the budgeted Advertising amount (cell E5). Fill the range F6:F16
with the formula in cell F5.
4. Apply the Percent Style number format to the range G5:G17 and display one place after
the decimal point.
5. In the range F5:F16, create a Conditional Formatting rule that uses Gradient Fill Blue
Data Bars to compare values.
6. Unmerge cell B17, then check the spelling in the worksheet, and correct any spelling
errors.
7. Go to the Charitable worksheet. Fill the merged range B2:G2 with Blue, Accent 2,
Lighter 80%. Hide column G.
8. Apply the Currency number format to the range C5:C13 using a dollar sign ($) and 0
decimal places.
9. In cell C15, enter a formula using the SUM function that totals the donations and
sponsorships (the range C5:C13).
10. In cell C16, enter a formula using the COUNT function that counts the number of
donations and sponsorships (the range C5:C13).

11. In cell C18, enter a formula without using a function that first subtracts the projected
donation amount (cell C17) from the total donation amount (cell C15), and then divides
the result by the projected donation amount.
Your workbook should look like the Final Figures on the following pages. Save your changes,
close the workbook, and then exit Excel. Follow the directions on the SAM website to submit your
completed project.
