PROJECT STEPS
Shanice Traynor is the warehouse manager for the Roadrunner Online warehouse in Detroit, Michigan. The warehouse specializes in automobile parts, which consumers buy from Roadrunner Online. Shanice has started to create an Excel workbook to track items in the warehouse inventory. She asks you to format the workbook to make the information clearer and easier to understand before she finishes entering the data.
Go to the
Bin worksheet. Change the name of the worksheet tab to
Bin List to use a more descriptive name.
Bottom Align the contents of the range C3:C13 to match the alignment of the other cells on the worksheet.
Format the list of bins to emphasize that the information belongs together as follows:
Apply
Outside Borders to the range A1:C13.
Change the border color to
Blue-Gray, Accent 3 (7th column, 1st row of the Theme Colors palette).
Apply the
Short Date number format to cell B15 to use a more common date format.
In Page Layout view, enter
Warehouse Bins in the center section of the header to provide a meaningful header when Shanice prints the worksheet.
Go to the
Inventory List worksheet. To make it stand out, format the worksheet title in cell A1 as follows:
In cell A1, change the font to
Calibri Light.
Change the font size to
20
point.
Change the font color to
Indigo, Text 2.
Bold the worksheet title.
Merge and center the worksheet title across the range A1:I1.
Resize the width of column B using
AutoFit to display the full text of the descriptions.
Shanice asks you to find any duplicate entries and then delete them. Respond to her request as follows:
In the range A5:A16, use Conditional Formatting
Highlight Cells Rules to highlight duplicate values in
Light Red Fill with Dark Red Text.
Delete the row containing the second duplicate value.
Shanice wants to keep a running count of the items in inventory.
In cell B3, enter a formula that uses the
COUNTA function to count the values in the range
B5:B15 to determine the number of items in inventory.
Shanice wants to display the entire text in cell F4, but format it so it requires less horizontal space. Make this formatting change as follows:
Set the width of column F to
9.00, which is wide enough to display the characters in each word of the column heading in cell F4.
Wrap the contents of cell F4 to display the text on two lines.
Apply shading to the range A2:B3 using
Aqua, Accent 4, Lighter 60% (8th column, 3rd row of the Theme Colors palette) to separate the range from the rest of the worksheet.
To format the value as a dollar amount, decrease the number of decimal places in cell A3 to 2.
Apply the
Accent3 cell style to the range A4:I4 to indicate those cells contain column headings and to the range E16:E18 to indicate those cells contain row headings.
Apply the
Accounting number format to the range G5:H15 to show that the values are dollar amounts.
Shanice wants to know at a glance which items have the most inventory value.
In the range H5:H15, use Conditional Formatting to create a
Data Bars rule with the
Gradient Fill Blue Data Bar color option.
Shanice also wants to highlight the items that need to be reordered.
In the range I5:I15, use Conditional Formatting
Highlight Cells Rules to format cells containing a value equal to
Reorder in
Light Red Fill with Dark Red Text.
In cell G16, enter a formula using the
AVERAGE function to display the average cost of the parts in the warehouse (range
G5:G15).
In cell G17, enter a formula using the
MIN function to display the cost of the cheapest part located in the warehouse (range
G5:G15).
In cell G18, enter a formula using the
MAX function to display the cost of the most expensive part located in the warehouse (range
G5:G15).
Check the Spelling in the workbook to identify and correct any spelling errors.
Change the tab color of the
Inventory List worksheet to
Blue-Gray, Accent 3 (7th column, 1st row of the Theme Colors palette), to match the color of the
Bin List worksheet tab.
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 website to submit your completed project.
(
Note: The value in cell B15 of the bin worksheet may differ from that shown below.)
