Description of Assignment:
In this assignment you will demonstrate your skill in creating a complex spreadsheet model for a given scenario. Your worksheets and printouts should be clear and correctly formatted i.e. the display and alignment of text, formatting of currency, labelling of charts/graphs including titles and axis and use of colours. For each task you are required to produce screenshots to provide evidence of the assessment criteria. In addition, you should provide a typed explanation of how you carried out each task.
Scenario
Bosbourne Stationery Supplies is a new company selling a range of office supplies and stationery. The company requires a spreadsheet to administer its sales. You will need separate worksheets to record:
1. Customers
2. Products
3. Sales
4. Revenue forecasting
The customer worksheet should contain the following:
• Customer unique reference
• Name
• Address
• Contact phone number
• Email
The products worksheet should contain the following:
• Product code
• Category (e.g. Labels and tags, filing, desktop stationery etc.)
• Product description
• Unit description (e.g. weight, box of 10 etc.)
• Supplier reference
• Name of supplier
• Cost price per unit
• Retail mark-up percentage
The sales worksheet should contain the following:
• Date
• Customer reference
• Customer
• Product reference
• Product
• Supplier reference
• Supplier name
• Quantity sold
• Unit price ex VAT (Cost price + retail mark-up percentage)
• VAT @20%
• Total unit price including VAT
• Total Price (Quantity * Total unit price including VAT)
• Salesperson reference
• Salesperson
• Commission rate per unit sale @2%
Task 1
1. Create the customer, products and sales worksheet. The customer, product and supplier should be automatically entered using the LOOKUP function. (AC 2.2, AC 2.4)
2. Enter data for each worksheet:
• Customers: Create 20 customers.
• Products: Create 6 different products for the worksheet.
• Sales: Create a minimum of 20 sales for each month. Create 6 salespersons
3. Use names in referring to cells and ranges (AC 2.3)
4. Split the products table to facilitate viewing of Sales commission. (AC 1.1)
5. Enter data by filling data series (AC 1.2)
6. In the products worksheet hide the cost price and the retail mark-up percentage. In the
Sales worksheet hide the first quarter (January to March ) (AC 1.3)
7. Protect the cost price per unit cells.(AC 1.4)
8. Sort the Sales worksheet by Supplier, Product and cost price. (AC 1.5)
9. Print the sorted spreadsheet (AC 5.2)
10. Use cell references to create a complex formula with brackets. (AC 2.1)
Task 2
1. Create a revenue forecast for the next six months based on the sales quarter October to December. Analyse the previous results of the sales team to forecast future performance and revenue. Create at least one replicated formula that uses at least one logical function (e.g. IF, COUNTIF, AVERAGEIF, COUNTIF, AND, OR, NOT) (AC 2.2)
2. It is expected that all supplier costs will increase by 3.5% in the next financial year resulting in a predicted 4% decrease in sales. Create a separate sales forecast to show this. (AC 2.4)
3. Record and save macro to produce a sales invoice for a customer. (AC 3.1, AC 3.2)
4. Assign the macro to a shortcut key combination or a button. (AC 3.4)
5. Apply the macro (AC 3.3)
6. Update the workbook by importing information from a variety of sources (e.g. database, text file, internet) using a range of methods (e.g. file/open, copy and paste, OLE, other linking methods). (AC 4.1)
7. Export information to a range of destinations, including choosing appropriate and justified file formats, using appropriate file names and organising the exported data in the file system. (AC 4.2)
Remember you must:
• Proof-read your work making sure you input text and numerical information without error.
(AC 5.1)
• Print each spreadsheet in standard view and again with ‘Show Formulas’. (AC 5.3)
• Provide a typed explanation of how you carried out the task.
