Excel Assignment 2 OverviewThis is an individual assignment, and you should create this spreadsheet on your own. Keep in mind that the tutorial is a learning tool and completion of the tutorial is not the assignment. You should start with a blank spreadsheet and build the assignment from scratch. Create a spreadsheet that your instructor could use to calculate final averages and letter grades for a fictitious class. Each individual grade will be recorded as points earned out of 100 total possible. The spreadsheet should use a similar design and features of the spreadsheet created in your Excel tutorial for assignment two. More specifically, the following requirements must be met:

1. Create a two-column table starting in cell A2 using the point values below for pop quizzes, regular exams, mid-term exam, final exam, and case studies. Pop quizzes (5) 10% (drop lowest grade) Regular exams (6) 30% (drop lowest grade) Mid-Term 20% Final 20% Case Studies (2) 20% 100%2. Create a two-column table starting in row 2 just to the right of the table created in #1 above. Thistable will include cutoffs for each grade level which are listed below.A 90B 80C 70D 60F <603. A minimum of 15 fictitious student records with grades (you make up the names and grades) entered for each student. Each student record should be on one row and each grade item or calculated value should be in one column similar to the tutorial. Begin with student name in column A, two rows below the tables created in 1 & 2 above.4. Columns for each individual grade item and total points earned in each category of grades (Pop Quizzes, Regular Exams, Mid-Term Exam, Final Exam and Case Studies). Columns for Final Average and Letter Grade. For column headings use abbreviations or word wrap so that columns are just wide enough to accommodate the grades in each column. Center all column headings.5. Use absolute cell referencing and the percentages from the table created in #1 above to calculate total points earned for each grade category. Your formula should drop the lowest grade for pop quizzes and regular exams. Do not use the actual percentages in the formula. Instead use the cell address where the percent is stored. This design should be done in a way that percentage changes in the table would automatically be reflected in affected calculations.6. Calculate a final average for each student.

7. Calculate a final letter grade for each student. Use an IF statement and absolute cell referencing for grade cutoff’s from the table created in #2 above (similar to what was done in assignment 2 tutorials). Reference the grade level cut-off levels from the table so the cut-off levels for each letter grade can be changed in the table and reflected in each individual letter grade.8. A class average (use the average function) for each individual grade item, combined grade categories (Pop quizzes, Regular exams, Mid-Term, Final and Case Studies), and final average.9. The highest (use max function) grade for each individual grade item, combined grade categories (Pop quizzes, Regular exams, Mid-Term, Final and Case Studies), and final average.10. The lowest (use min function) grade for each individual grade item, combined grade categories (Pop quizzes, Regular exams, Mid-Term, Final and Case Studies), and final average.11. In real world settings, you will often have to figure out how to do things on your own. Thefollowing requirement is not covered in the tutorials and you are expected to figure this out on your own. Use the COUNTIF function to count the number of A’s, B’s, C’s, D’s, and F’s and put this data in a table starting in row 2 just to the right of the table created in #2 above.12. Bold columns for total pop quiz points, total exam points, total case study points, mid-term points, final average, and letter grade.13. Format all calculated values (not individual scores) as number with one decimal point.
