PROJECT STEPS
1. Carmelo Miraglia is an executive consultant at Tallridge Regional Medical Center.
Carmelo is building a workbook that summarizes income and expenses for the
organization.
Change the theme of the workbook to Office.
2. Switch to the Departments worksheet, which contains a header and several tables that
need to be completed and formatted. Columns C through H could use a bit more room.
Change the width of columns C through H to 12.00 characters.
3. Change the height of the first row to 21 points.
4. Merge and center the contents of the second row to match the merged range in the first
row.
5. Format the newly merged range using the 40% - Accent 5 cell style, Bold formatting, and
a 14 point font size.
6. The first few headings of the Staff table need to be entered. Enter the data shown in
Table 1 in the appropriate cells.
Table 1: Data for the Range A5:E5
A B C D E
5 Abbreviati Departm M R Suppo
on ent D N rt
7. Format the headings in the Staff table as follows:
a. Center the headers and change the font size to 11 piont.
b. Change the background color to one shade darker than the subtitle in the second
row, and then wrap the text.
8. From the CCU abbreviation to the end of the table (including the total row), add a White,
Background 1 border to all sides of each cell. Be sure to include the total row.

9. Add a thin top border to the total row (including the abbreviation column) using the
Automatic color.
10. Format the last three columns of the staff table data (not including the total row).
a. Display the turnover percentage data as a percentage with no decimal places.
b. Use a conditional formatting rule to highlight departments with a turnover rate
greater than 24 percent using the default formatting.
11. Use a conditional formatting rule to add solid orange data bars to the data for the 2021
budget. Don't include the total row.
12. Finish by adding conditional formatting rules to the change from 2020 data that
highlights the top and bottom 10% of values. Show the top 10% of values as green fill
with dark green text and the bottom 10% of values as light red fill with dark red text.
13. The Department summary table should look up the department abbreviation and return
all of the data listed. It needs to be filled out.
To begin, next to the cell listed "Department", use a function to search the staff table
data (not including the row of headings and the total row) and return the department
name based on the abbreviation above. The formula will be copied, so make sure it
always references the abbreviation.
14. Copy the formula down to complete the Department summary table, and edit the copied
formulas to return the values from the headings listed in the left-hand column.
15. In the appropriate cell below the staff table, use a function to display the current date
without displaying the time.
16. The averages will not be needed, so delete column O.
17. The date for the next update isn't certain, so hide row 18.
18. Switch to the Budget worksheet, which contains the department budgets from 2018 to
2022. There's already a pie chart showing 2018 budget information, and Carmelo wants
another one to compare.
Create a 2-D pie chart based on the data in the Department and 2022 columns. Move the
chart so that it covers the range H4:O22. Use the third chart style, and use 2022
Budget by Department as the chart title.
19. The pie chart for 2018 now needs to be changed. Format this chart the same way as the
2022 chart.
20. The Departmental Budget Comparison 2018-2022 combo chart needs to be updated as
well.
a. Change the minimum bounds of the right vertical axis to 40,000,000, and then
add axis titles to the chart.
b. Use Department Budgets as the left vertical title, use Total Budget as the right
vertical title, and remove the horizontal axis title.
c. Apply a shape fill to the chart using the Blue, Accent 5, Lighter 80% fill color.
21. The Hiring worksheet won't be needed, so delete it from the workbook.
Save your changes, close the workbook, and then exit Excel. Follow the directions on the SAM
website to submit your completed project.
