Lab 2: Database Analytics

No. Question
1. The Excel file Store and Regional Sales Database provides sales data for computers and
peripherals showing the store identification number, sales region, item number, item
description, unit price, units sold, and month when the sales were made during the fourth
quarter of last year.
Modify the spreadsheet to calculate the total sales revenue for each of the eight stores as
well as each of the three sales regions.

2. The Excel file President’s Inn Guest Database provides a list of customers, rooms they
occupied, arrival and departure dates, number of occupants, and daily rate for a small bed-
and-breakfast inn during one month.
Room rates are the same for one or two guests; however, additional guests must pay an
additional $20 per person per day for meals. Guests staying for seven days or more receive
a 10% discount.
Modify the spreadsheet to calculate the number of days that each party stayed at the inn and
the total revenue for the length of stay.

3. The worksheet Base Data in the Excel file Credit Risk Data provides information about 425
bank customers who had applied for loans. The data include the purpose of the loan,
checking and savings account balances, number of months as a customer of the bank,
months employed, gender, marital status, age, housing status and number of years at current
residence, job type, and credit-risk classification by the bank.
a. Use the COUNTIF function to determine
i. how many customers applied for new-car, used-car, business, education, small-
appliance, and furniture loans.
ii. the number of customers with checking account balances less than $500.
b. Modify the spreadsheet using IF functions to include new columns, classifying the
checking and savings account balances as low if the balance is less than $250, medium
if between $250 but less than $2000, and high otherwise.

4. A manager needs to identify some information from the Purchase Orders Excel file but has
only the order number. Modify the Excel file to use the VLOOKUP function to find the
item description and cost per order for the following order numbers: Aug11008, Sep11023,
and Oct11020.

5. A pharmaceutical manufacturer has projected net profits for a new drug that is being
released to the market over the next five years:
Year Net Profit
1 $ 300,000,000
2 $ 145,000,000
3 $ 50,000,000
4 $ 125,000,000
5 $ 530,000,000
Use a spreadsheet to find the net present value of these cash flows for a discount rate of 3%.

6. Example 1.4 in Chapter 1 described a scenario for new product sales that can be
characterized by a formula called a Gompertz curve:

S  aebe
ct

Develop a spreadsheet for calculating sales using this formula for t = 0 to 160 in increments
of 10 when a = 15000, b = -8, and c = -0.05.

7. The following exercises use the Purchase Orders database. Use MATCH and/or INDEX
functions to find the following:
a. The row numbers corresponding to the first and last instance of item number 1369 in
column C (be sure column C is sorted by order number).
b. The order cost associated with the first instance of item 1369 that you identified in part
(a).
c. The total cost of all orders for item 1369. Use the answers to parts (a) and (b) along with
the SUM function to do this. In other words, you should use the appropriate INDEX
and MATCH functions within the SUM function to find the answer.
Validate your results by applying the SUM function directly to the data in column G.
