Explanation <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The table shown is a transactional dataset from a stationery company. It records sales transactions by date, salesperson, item, receipt number, and amount. The first step in working with such a dataset is data entry. The data should be input accurately into a worksheet such as Microsoft Excel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After entering the raw data, subtotals are calculated for each salesperson using a summation of the \u201cAmount\u201d column for their respective rows. These values are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Carl\u2019s Total<\/strong> = 1,782.10 + 4,853.55 + 51.35 = 6,687.00<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • John\u2019s Total<\/strong> = 91.15 + 442.60 + 561.50 + 62.75 = 1,158.00<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Judy\u2019s Total<\/strong> = 234.50 + 472.60 = 707.10<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Mary\u2019s Total<\/strong> = 364.15<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Susan\u2019s Total<\/strong> = 52.95 + 81.60 + 132.95 + 2,580.10 = 2,847.60<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Then, the Grand Total<\/strong> is calculated as the sum of all individual totals:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    6,687.00 + 1,158.00 + 707.10 + 364.15 + 2,847.60 = 11,763.85<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Formatting instructions<\/strong> are critical in presenting professional worksheets:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Totals are bold, formatted with comma separators and two decimal places.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The title \u201cStationery Supplies Ltd\u201d is centered across columns A to E, bold, italic, and size 16.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The table is bordered with a double line<\/strong> around the full table and single lines<\/strong> inside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      This makes the document both visually appealing<\/strong> and easy to interpret<\/strong>, fulfilling both analytical and presentational standards. The worksheet should be saved as “Stationery Analysis”<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
