 #Excel Chapter 6 Cumulative – Auto Sales 

Project Description:

You are the finance manager for Grossman Auto Sales. Your company offers in-house financing and as part of your duties you create reports detailing purchase options. You want to create a report to determine the optimal purchase price of a vehicle based on your customer’s budget. You also want to create one- and two-variable data tables to provide detailed payment options based on varying interest rates and down payments.

Download and open the file named   Exp22_Excel_Ch06_Cumulative_AutoSales.xlsx.   Grader has automatically added your last name to the beginning of the   filename.

Create appropriate range names   for Purchase Price (cell C5), Sales Tax (cell C6), Down Payment (cell C7),   Months Financed (C8), APR (cell C9), Down Payment Amount (cell C12), Amount   Financed (cell C13), and Tax Owed   (cell C14). Create the range names using the Create from Selection method,   using the values in the left column.

Edit the existing name range Tax_Owed to display as Tax. Note, Mac users, in the Define   Name dialog box, add the new named range, and delete the original one.

Apply the range names to the   existing formulas and functions in the worksheet.

Create a new worksheet labeled Range Names, paste the newly created range   name information in cell A1, and then resize the columns as needed for proper   display.

Use Goal Seek to determine the   optimal purchase price to reach a $500 monthly payment with all other variables remaining   unchanged.

Start in cell E5. Complete the   series of substitution values ranging from $20,000 to $75,000 at increments   of $5,000 vertically down column E. Apply Comma Style format to the range   E5:E16 with two decimal points and preserve the thick bottom border on row   16.

Enter references to the Down   Payment Amount, Tax Owed, and Monthly Payment (Cells F4, G4, and H4) in the   correct location for a one-variable data table. Use range names where   indicated.

Complete the one-variable data   table and format the results with Comma Style with no decimal places.

Apply Custom number formats to   cell F4:H4 that displays the text Down Payment in cell F4, Tax in G4, and Monthly Pmt in cell H4. Bold and center the   headings and substitution values.

Copy the purchase price   substitution values from the one-variable data table and paste the values   starting in cell J5. Adjust the width of column J as needed.

Type 5000 in cell K4. Complete the series of substitution   values from $5,000 to $15,000 at $5,000 increments. Apply Accounting Number   Format to the range K4:M4.

Enter the reference to the   Monthly Payment function in the correct location for a two-variable data   table.

Complete the two-variable data   table and apply Comma Style to the range K5:M16 with no decimal places.

Apply a Custom number format to   make the formula reference display as the descriptive column heading Purchase   Price. Bold the   headings in cells J4:M4.

Create a scenario named Best Case, using Purchase Price and   Months Financed. Enter these values for the scenario: 40000, and 36.

Create a second scenario named Worst Case, using the same changing cells.   Enter these values for the scenario: 50000, and 72.

Create a third scenario named Most Likely, using the same changing cells.   Enter these values for the ­scenario: 45000, and 60.

Generate a Scenario Summary report   based on Monthly Payment. Be sure to use best practice in formatting the   report by deleting Column A:B, Row 1, and the Current Values column.

Load the Solver add-in if it is   not already loaded. Set the objective to calculate a Monthly Payment of $500.

Use Purchase Price and Months   Financed as changing variable cells.

Set constraints to ensure the   Purchase Price is less than or equal to $50,000, greater than or equal to $30,000, and a whole number. 

Set constraints to ensure months   financed are less than or equal to 72, greater than or equal to 24, and a whole number.

Solve the problem and save the   results. Generate the Answer Report. If you get an internal memory error   message, remove Solver as an add-in, close the workbook, open the workbook,   add Solver in again, and finish using Solver.

Save and close   Exp22_Excel_Ch06_Cumulative_AutoSales.xlsx. Exit Excel. Submit the file   as directed.

Review the following scenario and complete the modular design where the main module only controls the execution of the modules. Scenario: Professor Jones has asked you to design the logic that will be used to calculate the average of a student’s scores in a class. Each student has three lab scores, a midterm score, and a final exam score. Then, based on the average, the student’s final grade for the student will be calculated using the following criteria: 88 – 100: A 78 – 87: B 68 – 77: C 58 – 67: D Less than 57: F The program should produce the following output for the student: Student Name: XXXXXXXXXXXXX Final Average: 80.5% Final Grade: X The program should use separate procedures for: · inputting the data; · determining the Final Grade; and · displaying the results. The following is the Hierarchy Chart for the design, and notice that modules should pass data between them to perform the necessary processing.

This week our topic shifts to working with data.  In this week’s discussion post, please note a system that you work with frequently that has a major data component.  Note the type of data, how the data is managed and maintained, and any other important factors regarding the data in the system.

Please respond with 250-300 words with references In APA format

Please respond with a minimum of  at least 150 words

Sorting exceptions into two categories (namely “unchecked” and  “checked” exceptions) can significantly change how we handle exceptions  within our program. 

Checked exceptions are exceptions that occur at compile-time. These  exceptions occur due to factors or events that are outside of our  program’s immediate control–such as network issues, Input/Output device  issues, files not being found when called, etc. Checked exceptions must  either be dealt with inside of the method in which they are thrown, or  else they must be passed up to an exception handler in higher-up method  (by adding a “throws” clause in the method’s argument parameter).

Because of this ability to pass the exception to another method,  these types of exceptions have the potential to be ignored or  “swallowed” (as some of the material has dubbed), although this is not  recommended of course. These exceptions should be dealt with in some way  within our program wherever absolutely possible utilizing try-catch  blocks or try-catch-finally blocks.

Unchecked exceptions are exceptions that occur at run-time. These  consist of exceptions that deal with issues within our actual program  code (or possible issues due to the user’s interaction with our code).  Examples of these would be trying to access an element outside of a  specified array, attempting to divide a number by 0, or a user  attempting to input a letter or string into an input box designed to  accept an integer. 

These types of exceptions are dealt with on an “as-needed” basis, one  might could say, as they attempt to catch specific errors that can  spring up from the execution of buggy code. Thoroughly testing our code  and being aware of the different types of exceptions that could occur  within our code (and then properly handling them) can keep our code  functioning smoothly and efficiently. 

When it comes to which method I would prefer:

The geeksforgeeks.com website reads that throwing checked exceptions  may be a better option if the user has a decent amount of control over  recovering from the exceptions, and if not, unchecked exceptions are  better used. It also appears that checked exceptions can allow for more  robust code, although (as stated earlier), this does give programmers  the opportunity to pass the buck and not deal with certain exceptions  simply because they do not want to be thorough. But I also found from my  research that some languages (such as C#) do not have checked  exceptions, and that language appears to work well without them.

Reflecting upon my researching of this subject, (and my limited  experience utilizing exceptions in my own code in my last course), I  feel as though I would be more inclined to utilize unchecked exceptions,  when possible. I think it makes more sense to be able to address the  exceptions as needed rather than “covering the entire code with ‘throws’  clauses” as the infoworld.com website puts it. Although, I am totally  new to this realm, so I’m sure I’ll learn more as I go!

Thanks for reading, all and best of wishes in the module!

Chapter 2

1. For apps to be featured on the iPhone, developers must build it with Apple’s software development kit and then apply for approval. Apple rejected the Google Voice iPhone App, and further stated that it would not accept any applications that incorporated Google Voice functionality. Apple reasoned that this app duplicates the phone’s core features. It also rejected Google’s location-based app Google Latitude. If you were developing a collaborative platform, do you think the best model is this collaborative model, or is the open innovation model better – if your main goal is to maximize innovation? What if your main goal is to make money?

Chapter 3
2.Plaintiffs filed a class action lawsuit against investment banks alleging that they inflated prices on more than 300 IPOs, causing IPO investors to overpay for stock, and unlawfully benefited these banks through overcompensation of banking commissions and profits made through quick sales of this stock in their own accounts before prices settled into a more realistic valuation. How would you combat such abuses going forward?

3. Read the following laws and articles:

1. The Computer Security Act of 1987

2. The Patriot Act.

3. Jaeger, P. T., McClure, C. R., Bertot, J. C., & Snead, J. T. (2004). The USA PATRIOT Act, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and information policy research in libraries: Issues, impacts, and questions for libraries and researchers. The Library Quarterly, 74(2), 99-121.

4. Politics

Discuss the relationship and impacts of CSA, USA PATRIOT ACT, and FISA. Also discuss the current status of these laws and the replacement of these laws.
