Project Description:
As manager of OK Office Systems (OKOS), you want to calculate the retail price, sale price, and profit analysis for selected items on sale this month. You will calculate sale prices based on discount rates. Finally, you will calculate the profit margin to determine the percentage of the final sale price over the cost. You will adjust column and row settings, move and copy data, format the worksheet, and apply Page Setup options.
