TASKS MR. MURRAY ASSIGNED


Worksheet: Customers

1. Calculate Total Sales (Column C)


Use: SUMIF function
Logic: From the Sales worksheet:
Match each customer s ID (Column A)
with Sales sheet Column B.
Sum matching values from Sales sheet
Column E (sales amounts).
Formula Example:
=SUMIF(Sales!$B$4:$B$655, A4,
Sales!$E$4:$E$655)
Use absolute cell references (F4) for
ranges since they ll repeat for each
customer.

2. Apply Discounts (Column D)


Use: Nested IF function
Conditions:
If total sales > 50,000 "15%"
If total sales > 15,000 "10%"
Otherwise "" (no discount)
Formula Example:
=IF(C4>50000, "15%", IF(C4>15000,
"10%", ""))

3. Count Sales Below Threshold (Column


G)
Use: COUNTIF function to count how
many total sales are below a value in F4
Formula Example (G4):
=COUNTIF($C$4:$C$11, "<" & F4)
Use ampersand (&) to join comparison
with cell value.

4. Find Incremental Counts (Column H)


Show change between cumulative
counts
Formula:
H4: =G4
H5 onward: =G5 - H4
Then autofill down to H11.

5. Apply Conditional Formatting (Column


C)
Color-code based on total sales:
20,000 Green
5,000 Red
2,000 Yellow
Steps:
1. Go to Home > Conditional Formatting >
New Rule > Use a formula.
2. Use this logic (fix column C, not row):
Green:
=$C4>20000
Red:
=$C4>5000
Yellow:
=$C4>2000

3. Order matters highest value first to


avoid lower rules overriding higher ones.
4. Use Manage Rules to adjust or reorder.
