A small company that manufactures makeup.

Its managers track each sales transaction in a


Microsoft Excel 2013 worksheet. Sometimes they want to extract, or filter out, a subset of their
sales data. For example, they might want to identify sales transactions that answer the following
questions:
1. How can I identify all transactions in which Jen sold lipstick in the East region?
2. How can I identify all transactions in which Cici or Colleen sold lipstick or mascara in the
East or South region?
3. How can I copy all transactions in which Cici or Colleen sold lipstick or mascara in the East
or South region to a different worksheet?
4. How can I clear filters from a column or database?
5. How can I identify all transactions that involved sales greater than $280 and greater than 90
units?
6. How can I identify all sales occurring in 2005 or 2006?
7. How can I identify all transactions in the last three months of 2005 or the first three months of
2006?
8. How can I identify all transactions for which the salesperson’s first name starts with C?
9. How can I identify all transactions for which the cell containing the product name is colored
in red?
10. How can I identify all transactions in the top 30 revenue values in which Hallagan or Jen was
the salesperson?
11. How can I easily obtain a complete list of salespeople?
12. How can I view every combination of salesperson, product, and location that occurs in the
database?
13. If my data changes, how can I reapply the same filter?
14. How can I extract all foundation transactions in the first six months of 2005 for which Emilee
or Jen was the salesperson and the average per-unit price was more than $3.20?

Crete at least seven pivot table and charts to answer relevant business questions. You have to
carefully crate business questions.

Some more questions for practice.

price was larger than the average price received for foundation during the entire period.
3. Find all unique combinations of product and salesperson’s name.
