Stock Info1
You have created a spreadsheet that tracks basic information on the stocks you have purchased. Below is a description of the
worksheets in the workbook:
Stock Info1: Contains basic information about each stock, such as the purchase price, current price and current value.
Analysis1: Contains some basic analysis you would like to perform on your stocks.
1.
Write an Excel formula in cell 'Stock Info1'!F2, which can be copied down to cell 'Stock Info1'!F7, to determine the total
purchase value of the corresponding stock. This formula should also work when copied across to cell 'Stock Info1'!G2 and
down to cell 'Stock Info1'!G7 to determine the current value of the corresponding stock. (You can always assume all other
cells have been filled in.)
2.
Write an Excel formula in cell 'Stock Info1'!H2, which can be copied down to cell 'Stock Info'!H7, to determine (T/F) if a profit
was made on the corresponding stock. (You can always assume all other cells have been filled in.)
3.
Write an Excel formula in cell ‘Anaylsis-1’!F1 to determine (T/F) if you made a profit on all the stocks listed. (You can always
assume all other cells have been filled in.)
4.
Write an Excel formula in cell Anaylsis-1!F2 to determine (T/F) if you lost more than $1,000 on any stock. (You can always
assume all other cells have been filled in.)
5.

display, "Yes, I did" otherwise, display "No, I did not". (You can always assume all other cells have been filled in.)
3.

did" otherwise, display "No, I did not". (You can always assume all other cells have been filled in.)
4.
Write a formula in cell 'Analysis2'!F3 to determine how much of your portfolio you should sell. The formula should return a
dollar value based on the following criteria: (You can always assume all other cells have been filled in.)
If the value of stocks that did not make a profit is less than $15,000 then you will sell all stocks that did not make a profit.
If the value of all stocks that did not make a profit is at least $15,000 but less than $20,000 you will sell half the value of the
stocks that did not make a profit.
If the value of all stocks that did not make a profit is at least $20,000 you will sell 25% of the value of the stocks that did not
make a profit.
