Project Description:
You work in the accounting division at Sugarhouse District Theatre, where touring Broadway plays and musicals are
performed. You started a worksheet that lists the number of seats in each section (orchestra and the tiers) and the number of
seats sold for a specific performance date. You will calculate the percentage of sold and unsold seats and gross revenue by
section. You will format the worksheet to improve readability and copy the final worksheet to use as a template to enter data
for the next day’s performance.

2
Centering the title Sugarhouse District Theatre over the data columns, increasing the font size,
and applying a different font color will make it stand out as a title.
5
Merge and center the title over the range A1:G1, change the font size to 20, and apply Purple
font color.
3
You want the performance date to display, including the weekday, centered below the title.
6
Type 4/16/2021 in cell A2, apply the Long Date number format (which includes the day of the
week), apply the Note cell style, and merge and center the date over the range A2:G2.
4
Now that you have formatted the worksheet, you need to select margin settings so that any
printouts you make will look professional.
5
Set a 1″ top margin and center the worksheet horizontally between the left and right margins.
5
Insert a footer with the text Exploring Series on the left side, the sheet name code in the
center, and the file name code on the right side.
6
6
You want to insert a new row for Orchestra Back.
5
Insert a new row above row 9, between Right and Left. The new row is row 9. Copy the data
from cell A5 to cell A9 and change the data in cell A9 from Front to Back.
7
Indenting the specific seating sections will distinguish the specific section locations from the
main section headings. After indenting text, the column needs to be widened to display the
text.
6
Indent twice the data in the ranges A6:A8, A10:A12, and A14:A17. Then change the width of
column A to 18.
8
The column heading in cell A4 is formatted. You want to copy those formats to the other
headings on row 4.
2
Use Format Painter to copy the formats in cell A4 to the range B4:G4.
9
Wrapping text within each cell will improve the readability of the column headings.
4
Wrap text and horizontally center the labels in the range A4:G4 and set the height of row 4 to
30.
