  Scenario
• For more course tutorials visit
• www.tutorialrank.com
• Scenario/Summary
• The purpose of this exercise is to use the Excel
  skills you have acquired thus far, and apply them
  to an analysis of a business scenario, of your
  choice. This will consist of preparing the
  groundwork in Excel (importing data, preparing
  the analysis using tables, charts, graphs, pivot
  tables, etc.) and preparing a memo to your
  management, explaining your three separate
  analysis.
• This is different than prior iLab assignments, in
  that there are no specific instructions as to
  what type of analysis (i.e., Sales/Units/discounts
  by Country/Rep/Product/Date/Category, etc.) is
  to be performed. The general requirement is for
  you to prepare a minimum of three discrete
  analyses and perform a write-up to management,
  using the memo format provided.

  fun and useful. We'll be exploring the world of

  allowing you to practice your skills with
  descriptive statistics, formatting, graphs, and

• As discussed in the lesson, the value of
  statistics lies in the ability to analyze data
  more effectively for the purpose of improving
  decision making. You might have heard the
  expression that "statistics never lie, and only
  liars use statistics". There is an obvious truth
  in this statement, in that, depending on the
  questions being asked and the data collected, the
  statistics can skew reality.
