Instructions:

·    Filling out your name, correct seat# and lab section on both answer sheets is worth 4 points.

·         Put away all books, papers, calculators, cell phones, music devices, etc... you should only have a writing utensils at your seat. A deduction of 50 pts minimum, and possibly more at the discretion of the lecturer, will be given if any other materials (besides writing utensils) are present.

·     Turn off all beepers, cell phones and anything else that you can turn off that might make noise.

·     Read each question carefully and fill in the answer in the space provided.  Answers must be legible or they will be marked incorrect.  If there are multiple answers to choose from, please CIRCLE the correct answer. The question will not be graded at all if there are multiple answers to choose from.

·         When time has run out you will be told to put all pens/pencils down. 

·         Please stay in the answer box for each question i.e. do not write an essay for a short answer problem!

·    Be sure to use values as determined by previous problems and do not use values from problems that have not yet been solved per the ordering of the questions.

·     Use cell references whenever possible and appropriate.

·     Do not use a $ if NOT copying.

·         You are only allowed to use the given functions.

·         Do NOT put quotes around Boolean values.

·    Do not use unnecessary functions, for example =average(sum(a1:a5)). If you use an extra function that is not needed (the “average” function in this example), it’s assumed that you thought it was necessary thus will be marked incorrect.

·         Caveat/Reminder to above: Do not use =IF(cond, TRUE, FALSE) as the IF structure in this case is unnecessary.

·         All of the values are formatted as shown unless otherwise specified. That is, do NOT use a ROUND function unless you are specifically asked to round the value(s).

·         Do NOT use a nested IF function when a reference function will work since the reference function is a better more updatable less complex solution.

·         Your answer should update correctly when additional input data is added to the problem or when input data is changed – unless otherwise noted.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

 

You have started up a company to create custom t-shirts which offers several varieties and styles of t-shirt options. Computerizing your business is your next step in creating a smoothly run schedule and finance division. You are mocking up some of your current data (just a portion of it) and have set up the following worksheets:

 

REQUESTS – On this worksheet, A4:I11 is given i.e. input data, along with G2:I2 and M2:O2.  Almost all of the solutions will be given on this worksheet. The req# in column A are requests from certain clients. The order# (column B) is the order  that the request originates from. Notice that order #1 has several different types of requests. In the given sample of data, there are 4 requests for order #1. Each request also includes the gender of the given shirt size as well as the quantity and level of detail (columns C thru F). The level of detail is given to represent the complexity of the requested t-shirt design. The last of the input data includes the type of design that should be included (a TRUE value) on the t-shirt: screen print, air brush and/or tie-dye and the amount of paint in ounces that each shirt will use in G2:I2 respectively. Notice that each request can include multiple design options. For instance, request #1 has a tie-dye and a screen print option, so any combination of options is viable as well as none of them (see request g)!

 

There are a few other important things to notice:

 

·         The order# on this worksheet is related to the orders field on the ORDERS worksheet

·         The men/women and size fields are related to the information on the COSTS worksheet

·         The level of detail data is also designated on the LEVEL worksheet

·         The design options – screen print, air brush and tie-dye – will always be in the same order when used per column. That is, requests!G3:I3, requests!J3:L3, requests!M3:O3, and level!C3:E3 column names will always be in the same order.

 

See the other related worksheets for more information.

 

ORDERS – On this worksheet, A2:A4 is given i.e. input data. These values are related to the order# field on the REQUESTS worksheet.

 

COSTS – All of the data on this worksheet is given i.e. input data. This data is related to the gender (men/women) and size fields on the REQUESTS worksheet. Each cost value is the price of one t-shirt for the given gender and size.

 

LEVEL – All of the data on this worksheet is given i.e. input data. There is a ONE TIME basic overhead cost associated with the level of detail (i.e. complexity) for the given t-shirt request. For detail levels 1-2, there is a $150 overhead cost; for details levels 3, 4, and 5, there is a $165 overhead cost; for detail levels 6 and 7, there is a $181.50 overhead cost; for detail levels 8 and 9, there is a $199.65 overhead cost; and for detail levels greater than or equal to 10, there is a $219.62 overhead cost. NOTE: The values given in cells C2:E2 where used to generate the values in C4:E8, but will not be used, and are not a factor, in determining any of the solutions that you will be asked to give.

 

Remember that the columns for screen print, air brush and tie-dye are in the exact same order as the same set of 3 columns on the REQUESTS worksheet.

 

***** VERY IMPORTANT *****

 

There is a named range called detail which is defined as level!$A$4:$E$8 which MUST be used when accessing this range.

 

***** VERY IMPORTANT *****

 

UNIT – Conversion factors are given here. Although well known facts, you are to use these cell references whenever necessary to show proficiency and knowledge in using constant values that may need to change in the future.

Answer Sheet CSE 200 – Midterm AU09 – TR 9:30-11:18am KReeves

Answer:

 

1.    (12 pts) Write an Excel formula in cell orders!B2, which can be copied down to orders!B4, to determine the total number of t-shirts on order #1. Notice the quantity per request is in the requests worksheet column E.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.  (18 pts) Write an Excel formula in cell requests!G12, which can be copied across to cell requests!I12, to determine if only  men’s t-shirt requests were screen printed. Remember that for this problem only, the input data in column C will not change, but all the other data can change and your solution should still work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.  (24 pts) Write an Excel formula in cell requests!J4, which can be copied down and across to cell requests!L11, to determine the number of quarts of paint needed for the screen print t-shirt design option for request a. Remember that the ounces of paint needed for each screen printed t-shirt in cell requests!G2.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.  (15 pts) Write an Excel formula in cell requests!J12, which can be copied across to cell requests!L12, to determine the total number of quarts of paint needed for all of the screen print requests. Since you can’t order 30.47 quarts of paint, which is what the values in the range requests!J4:J11 add up to, you actually have to buy 31 quarts for the given screen print data. You will need to use a new function to help solve this problem. The ROUNDUP function rounds a number up, away from zero for the given position. Here is the definition of the function: ROUNDUP(number, num_digits). The arguments work exactly the same way as the ROUND function, however, the result of the ROUNDUP function rounds up if the value to the right of the num_digits position is greater than zero; whereas the ROUND function rounds down if the value to the right of the num_digits position is less than 5, and rounds up if the value to the right of the num_digits position is greater than or equal to 5. For example, if I round 30.47 to the nearest whole value using the ROUND function, it will round down to 30; if I use the ROUNDUP function, the result will return 31.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5.  (20 pts)  Write an Excel formula in cell requests!M4, which can be copied down and across to cell requests!O11, to determine the one time screen print cost, which is based on the level of detail, for request a. Notice that screen print is option 1 (requests!M2), air brush is option 2 (requests!N2) and tie-dye is option 3 (requests!O2) and remember that you are guaranteed that the order of these design options are the same (i.e. the screen print, air brush and tie-dye columns will always be in the same order). NOTE: don’t forget to use the named range.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6.  (8 pts)  In the above problem, what would happen if the level of detail in the requests worksheet was allowed to be zero but the values on the level worksheet were not changed? Explain what happens and why.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7. (10 pts) Determine the chart type and range used to create the given graph.

Graph Type:

 

 

 

Range:

 

 

 

8.  (6 pts)  Write an Excel formula in cell requests!M12, which can be copied across to cell requests!O12, to determine the average value for all of the one-time screen print costs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9.  (6 pts)   The values in cells requests!M12:O12, which are results of the previous problem, do not show a decimal portion on any of the values. Explain why not.

Answer:

 

10.  (25 pts) Write an Excel formula in cell requests!P4, which can be copied down to requests!P11, to determine the cost of a just one single t-shirt for request a NOT including any additional costs (see below problem which includes the additional costs).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

11. (15 pts) Write an Excel formula in cell requests!Q4, which can be copied down to requests!Q11, to calculate the actual/real cost per t-shirt based not only on the t-shirt cost itself, but also the one-time cost options.

 

 

 

 

 

 

12. (12 pts) Write an Excel formula in cell requests!R4, which can be copied down and across to cell requests!S11, to determine the ordering, from lowest to highest, of the size only cost for a request a t-shirt with respect the size only cost of the rest of the t-shirts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

13. (8 pts)  Write an Excel formula in cell requests!T4, which can be copied down to cell requests!T11, to determine (true or false) if the size only t-shirt rank and the actual t-shirt rank are different. That is, the solution should be TRUE if the two ranks for request a are not equal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

14. (15 pts) Write an Excel formula in the request worksheet (not shown) to determine if at least 50% of the requests have a different rank. The answer for the given data is TRUE but must update correctly if additional requests are added.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

15. (12 points) Write an Excel formula in cell requests!U4, which can be copied down to cell requests!U11, to determine (true or false) if request a is profitable. A request is profitable if the quantity is more than 100 or the actual cost per t-shirt is between $7 and $10 (inclusive).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

16. (20 pts)  Write an Excel formula in cell requests!V4, which can be copied down to cell requests!V11, to determine the priority based on the following:

·         If the request is profitable, then the priority is “high”

·         If the request is not profitable and none of the design options are being used (no screen print, air brush or tie-dye options given), then the priority is “low”.

·         Otherwise, the priority is “medium” (if not profitable and at least one design option was used).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

17. (20 pts) You are asking the bank for a loan of $400,000 to pay for your company startup costs. In addition, you are willing to make quarterly payments of $15,000 and you have $100,000 worth of investments that you can use as a balloon payment.  The bank is offering you 12% annual percentage rate compounded monthly. Write an Excel formula in the requests worksheet (not shown) to determine the number of years it will take to pay off the loan. NOTE: the answer is 11.6 years.

 

 

 

 

 

 

18. (12 pts) From the above problem, a few things have changed… you have no balloon payment, you are compounding the rate quarterly (not monthly) and you are making your payment at the beginning of the period. The loan amount of $400,000 is the same as is the $15,000 quarterly payments. Write an Excel formula in the requests worksheet (not shown) to determine the number of years it will take to pay off the loan. NOTE: the answer is 12.7 years.
