5. Fill in the cells from C3 to M3 with the months of the year.
114 ADVANCED CALCULATIONS

Gross Sales
8. Click the Numbers Per Costume tab.

9. In the Numbers Per Costume sheet, click cell E8.
10. Type:

12. In the Sales sheet, click cell A4.

13. Press ENTER.
On the Revenue sheet, January’s gross sales should be

$192.40:
The price of a costume
times
The number of costumes sold in January.
14. Click cell B4.
In the Formula Bar is the formula that expresses this:
='Numbers Per Costume'.E8*Sales.A4
Note the sheets are listed before the cell coordinates.

Practice
1. On the Revenue sheet, type:
Net Revenue
in cell A5.
2. In cell B5, create a formula that multiplies the profit per costume
by the number of costumes sold in January.
When you’re done, the Net Revenue in January should be

$88.60:

Employ absolute references
1. On the Revenue sheet, click cell B4.
Notice the formula in the Formula Bar:
='Numbers Per Costume'.E8*Sales.A4
2. Place the cursor on the Fill Handle, then drag it to cell C4.

Cell C4 should contain only a 0.
3. Click cell C4.
Note the formula in the Formula Bar:
='Numbers Per Costume'.F8*Sales.B4

This means Calc is multiplying cell F8 in the Numbers Per
Costume sheet with January’s costume sales.
When the formula in B4 was moved over to cell C4, Calc moved
over the cells used in the formula, too:
From E8 to F8 in the Numbers Per Costume sheet:
From A4 to B4 in the Sales sheet:

4. Click the Numbers Per Costume sheet, then look at cell F8—a
blank cell.
The formula in cell C4 on the Revenue sheet is multiplying

January’s Costume sales by nothing—a blank cell.
To fix this, an absolute reference is employed.
5. On the Revenue sheet, click cell C4.
6. Press DELETE.

7. Click cell B4.
8. Click in the Formula Bar, before the E in E8 to place the cursor

there.
9. Type:

10. Click before the 8 in E8 to place the cursor there.
11. Type:

13. Click cell B4.
Notice the formula in the Formula Bar:
='Numbers Per Costume'.$E$8*Sales.A4
14. Place the cursor on the Fill Handle and drag it to cell C4.
February’s Gross Sales should be $384.80:
The price of a costume ($17.99)
times
The number of costumes sold in February (20).

15. Click cell B4, then cell C4.
Notice the formulas in the Formula Bar.
Both formulas use cell E8 in the Numbers Per Costume sheet.
16. Click cell C4, then place the cursor on the Fill Handle.
17. Drag it to cell M4.
By employing an absolute reference—using the $ symbol to

make each formula use the same cell containing the costume
price—the formula stays accurate for all months.

Practice
1. Edit the formula in cell B5 in the Revenue sheet to make cell G6
in the Numbers Per Costume sheet an absolute reference.
2. Use the Fill Handle to copy the formula in cell B5 so the

Revenue sheet shows each month’s net revenue.
When you’re done, the Revenue sheet should look like this:

Employ the function wizard
1. In the Revenue sheet, click cell A7.
2. Type:
In how many months were sales greater than $200?

3. Click cell F7.
4. On the Menu Bar, click Insert, then Function.

5. When the Function Wizard window appears, click
Mathematical in the Category list:

6. Scroll down the Function list, then click COUNTIF.

8. Click in the Range box to place the cursor there.
9. Highlight cells B4 through M4.
Tip: If the Function Wizard window covers the cells, click the
icon to minimize it.
To maximize the Function Wizard window, click the icon

again.

10. Click in the Criteria box, then type:
“>200”

Cell F7 should show that sales were greater than $200 in 11

months.

Practice: Advanced Calculations
1. Open the StationeryShop workbook from the Practice Calc

Files folder.
2. Rename the Sheet3 tab Income.
3. On the Income sheet, type:
Income
in cell A1.
Make it Lucida Sans, 12 point, bold.
4. Set up the worksheet so Gross Revenue and Net Revenue can

be recorded for the months January through May.

5. In cell B4 in the Income sheet, create a formula that multiplies
Gross revenue per ream
times
Total reams sold in January
6. In cell B5, create a formula that multiplies
Net revenue per ream
times
Total reams sold in January
7. Edit the formulas in both cells to employ absolute references to

the Gross revenue and Net revenue figures in the Per Ream
Revenue sheet.
8. Fill the other cells in the worksheet to show the Gross and Net
revenue for each month.

How much money was made in months with sales higher

than $5000?
10. Click cell G7, then use the Function Wizard to get the answer.
Tip: Use the SUMIF function in the Mathematical category.
11. Save and close the StationaryShop workbook.
