BIS 155 iLab 8 (Week 7) Descriptive statistics, formatting, graphs, and regression analysis
Scenario/Summary
Hopefully you will find this week's iLab activity fun and useful. We'll be exploring the world of statistics
from a business perspective this week, allowing you to practice your skills with descriptive statistics,
formatting, graphs, and regression analysis.
As discussed in the lesson, the value of statistics lies in the ability to analyze data more effectively for
the purpose of improving decision making. You might have heard the expression that "statistics never
lie, and only liars use statistics". There is an obvious truth in this statement, in that, depending on the
questions being asked and the data collected, the statistics can skew reality.
For example, it is true that as ice cream sales increase, accidents at swimming pools increase. Does
this mean that the more ice cream that is sold, the more accidents it causes (correlation/causation)?
Of course not, but the data, if not interpreted correctly, could lead to false conclusions. It just so
happens that both are correlated to a rise in temperature in the summertime. The hotter it is outside,
the more kids flock to swimming pools, leading to more accidents, and the more ice cream is sold. So
you see, although statistics are vital in the world of decision making, you have to be wise, and ask the
right questions.
a. On the Q1&Q2 sheet, in cell E8, add a formula using a lookup function that will look up the
grand total in cell D8 in the table of sales and assessments in A11:B13, and display the
corresponding assessment. Use a range lookup. (For example, if the grand total of $12,500 is
displayed in cell D8, "Good" should be displayed in cell E8.)
b. In cell E9 enter the label Highest Sales. In F9 enter a formula using a function to display the
highest total sales value for any product.
c. In cell E10 enter the label Lowest Sales. In F10 enter a formula using a function to display the
lowest total sales value for any product.
d. In cell E11 enter the label Average Sales. In F11 enter a formula using a function to display
the average total sales value for all products.
e. Format the labels and statistics (Highest Sales, Lowest Sales, and Average Sales) to display
an outline (exterior border) around these cells for readability. Resize all columns for visibility.
f. Add comments to cells F9, F10, and F11. In your comments, explain briefly in your own words
what is displayed in each cell.
g. Add gridlines and cell formatting and color formatting to cells A10:B13.
h. Add a top and double bottom border to cell D8.
i. Protect the worksheet so the contents cannot be accidentally changed by a user. Do not use
a password.
j. Save your work (CTRL+s) - (but leave it open to continue).
3. Data cleansing, lists, sorting, conditional formatting, and pivot tables (TCOs 4 & 8; 40
points).
Format the Total Revenue, Expenses, and Net Income in bold, and choose a fill color for the Net
Income.
Perform a one-way analysis (i.e., Week5, iLab 6) to see at what sales volume level MP3 player sales
add at least $1,000 to net income. Apply conditional formatting to the options that produce at least
$1,000 in net income in the above table.
Format all the numeric data and labels on the worksheet using consistent and business like formatting
options.
Save your work (CTRL+s).
Continue using the Quest 4 Financials worksheet:
Music on Demand (MoD) wants to apply for a 20-year loan and they need to know how much the
monthly payment will be with a $10,000 down payment or a $20,000 down payment on a loan of
$160,000. The annual interest rate is 3% and payment is assumed to be made at the end of the
period.
Complete the chart and calculate the monthly payment, using an Excel function.
Secure/Protect, without a password, the Quest 4-Financials worksheet tab.
Save your work (CTRL+s).
Organization, Planning and Consolidation Strategies (TCOs 5, 7, & 8; 40 Points) Using the Quest 5
Organizing Data worksheet:
Consolidate the information on the Quest 5-Organizing Data sheet from the three (3) worksheets (DC
Branch, Houston Branch, and LA Branch), using consolidation strategies that include:
Group sheets and use the auto-fill to complete the list of months in Column A and add totals for rows
and columns.
Apply formatting to column headings and merge and center a title across row 1 for each sheet.
Open the blank worksheet, Quest 5-Organizing Data, and on the data tab click consolidate.
Choose the sum function to sum the data.
Add each worksheet to the consolidated Summary.
As an alternative to steps 3-5 above, use 3-D referencing to summarize the data.
Add row and column summary totals on the Quest 5-Organizing Data Worksheet.
Summarize your results using an appropriate chart type and place it below the summarized data.
Spell check the worksheet.
Save your work (CTRL+s).
Analysis, Summary and Recommendation (TCOs 8, and 9; 30 Points).
Analyze the results from Quest 5-Organizing Data worksheet and create a report/memo with the
following:
Identify the top two selling items and the two lowest selling items.
Add a Chart/Table (s) to reflect your results or use the chart created in step 5
Offer management a recommendation to improve the business based upon your analysis.
List at least two Lessons Learned from your course experience.
Save and close your Excel file.
1. Discuss and explain at least six different (unique) features of Excel that make it a valuable
business tool.
2. Discuss what type of Excel skills would be important in todays job market and why. Be
specific.
Note: In addition to the Microsoft Excel 2013 overview in the Course Home, there are many Excel
resources, in addition to your text, on the Web. For example, try an Internet search on "top ten Excel
2013 features" and sift through some of the resources. Be sure to read your classmates posts, and
see how many features you can find that haven't been listed yet.

The following are some examples of analysis you might wish to do:
Sort by discount level. Have discounts increased sales volumes? Is there any discount level that
appears to be more effective than others? Graph sales over time to see trends. Are there any peaks
and lows in sales? Is there any time of year in which sales are highest? Lowest? Pivot the data to see
total sales by quarter, country, category, and salesperson. Are there any highs? Are there any lows
that need to be addressed? Subtotal the data. How are quarterly sales totals? Sales totals by
salesperson? By Country? Challenge Option: Perform What-If Analysis. What if prices were raised by
a certain percentage with a slight decline in sales? What combination of price increases and decline
in sales makes most sense?
Present your Conclusions in a Report
Use the integration techniques we worked on in the course to develop a report (Word document) that
includes data and graphs copied and pasted from your spreadsheet. You will turn in both your
Recommendation Report and your spreadsheet. (There is an Excel Project Template in DocSharing,
Course Project Materials, to help you formulate your report. The yellow-lined information provides an
explanation of what should be included in each section of the report.)
Your report will focus one paragraph on each of the Data Analysis sheets in your workbook. Explain
the type of analysis you completed, the conclusions you drew, and a recommendation based on the
analysis. (45 points)
You should include a final paragraph that explains three things you learned about using Excel for data
analysis. (15 points)
