Start your formula with the = sign. Do not anchor cell references, i.e. there should be no dollar signs (“$”) in your answer. Write an HLOOKUP function that will output the correct Net Profit for whichever date is selected in cell H11. For your answer to be scored correctly, please using C5:H8 as your table array and a hard coded number for the row index number. =HLOOKUP(H11,C5:H8,4,FALSE) 39. In the last question, you wrote an HLOOKUP function to output net profit. Do you need to include a range lookup to output the correct net profit?

No, the formula will work correctly with or without the range lookup parameter.

Yes, the formula needs an exact match in the range lookup parameter to work correctly.

Yes, the formula needs an approximate match in the range lookup parameter to work correctly. A 40. Instructions: Questions 40-41 use the fact pattern on tab Q40-41 in the Exam Workbook. You will enter a function for the answer below. Start your formula with the = sign. Do not anchor cell references, i.e. there should be no dollar signs (“$”) in your answer. Write a VLOOKUP function that will output the correct result for whichever 2018 income statement line item is selected in cell H11. For your answer to be scored correctly, please using C5:H8 as your table array and a hard coded number for the column index number.


=VLOOKUP(H11,C5:H8,6,FALSE)

41. In the last question, you wrote an VLOOKUP function to show whatever 2018 metric is referenced in cell H11. Do you need to include a range lookup parameter to get the correct answer? No, the formula will work correctly with or without the

range lookup parameter. Yes, the formula needs an exact match in the range

lookup parameter to work correctly Yes, the formula needs an approximate match in the

range lookup parameter to work correctly B 42. Instructions: Questions 42-43 use the fact pattern on tab Q42-43 in the Exam Workbook. Answers below are rounded to the nearest dollar amount. What is the NPV assuming cash flows all come at the end of each period? 
