Click cell B2 (the cell displaying the staff member’s last name, Stevens). This is the cell at the intersection of column B and row 2. Note that the column B and row 2 selector boxes highlight. Note that the status bar displays Ready, indicating that you are in Ready mode.On the Home tab, in the Number group, look at the Number Format box at the top of the group. Note that the format for this cell isGeneral. Double-click cell B2 to switch to Edit mode. Note that the status bar now displays Edit, and the blinking cursor appears within the cell. If you needed to, you could edit the text directly in the cell. Press Esc to exit Edit mode and return to Ready mode. Press Enter twice to move to cell B4 (the cell displaying the staff member’s billable rate). This cell is formatted with the Accounting Number Format number format. Look in the Number Formatbox and note that the format for this cell is Accounting. On the Home tab, in the Styles group, look in the Cell Styles gallery, and note that the cell style Currency is highlighted. (If the Cell Stylesgallery is collapsed on your Ribbon, click the Cell Stylesbutton to display it.) Click cell B8 (the cell displaying the number of hours for Monday, August 1). This cell is formatted with the Comma cell style. Look in the Number Formatbox and note that the format for this cell is also Accounting.

Note that the reference to cell B4 is an absolute reference ($B$4). Press Esc to exit Edit mode.Double-click cell B12. Note that once again the status bar displays Edit, indicating that you are in Edit mode. This cell contains a formula using the SUM function to calculate the total billable hours for Monday, August 1: =SUM(B8:B11)In this case, the SUM function uses a single argument B8:B11 to indicate the range of cells to total. Note that the cell range B8:B11 is highlighted with the color matching the argument in the SUM function formula. Note that the reference to the cell range B8:B11 uses relative references. Press Esc to exit Edit mode.Press Tab to move to cell C12. Look in the formula bar and note that this cell contains a similar formula to the one in cell B12: =SUM(C8:C11)Press → to move through cells D12 through H12. Note the formula in the formula bar for each cell. Did you notice that the cell references in the formulas in cells C12 through H12 all use relative references? The Stevens Hours worksheet contains a stacked column chart. Review the chart so you can recreate it on the Jarvis Hours worksheet. The stacked column chart to the right of the hours for the week of August 1 represents the hours worked for each client each day. The column height for each day represents the total hours worked. Each column is divided into segments representing the hours worked for each client. The number of hours worked is represented on the y axis. The dates are represented along the x axis.

Hold down the left mouse button and drag to cell H14. Release the mouse button. The formulas in cells B14 through H14 should look like this.Notice that when the AutoFill copied the formula, it updated the relative reference (B12) to reflect the new column position, but it did not change the absolute reference ($B$4).Table EX 1.5 displays the relative and absolute references for the remaining days in the timesheet. BCDEFGH14=B12*$B$4=C12*$B$4=D12*$B$4=E12*$B$4=F12*$B$4=G12*$B$4=H12*$B$4Now you can calculate the bill total for the week by summing the daily bill amounts.
