o Support_EX19_EOM10-1_Population.xlsx

 To complete this project, you need to display the Power Pivot and
Developer tabs. If these tabs do not display, right-click any tab on the
ribbon, and then click Customize the Ribbon on the shortcut menu. In

PROJECT STEPS
1. As a business liaison for the Wyoming Commerce Department, Pedro
Suarez works to attract businesses to the state of Wyoming. He is
developing an Excel workbook that compares population, income, and
education data in Wyoming counties to identify places he can
promote to businesses wanting to expand their operations. He asks
for your help in analyzing the data.
Go to the Education and Age worksheet, where Pedro wants to include
educational information about Wyoming counties. He has another
 workbook that already contains this data. Use Power Query to connect
to and import data from the Support_EX19_EOM10-
1_Education.xlsx workbook. Transform the data in the Education
table to remove the top two rows and the column containing state
data. Use the first row as headers. Close and load the transformed
data to a table in cell A2 of the existing worksheet.
2. Go to the Population and Income worksheet. Pedro also wants to
analyze data about the 10 most populated counties in Wyoming and
their median income. This data is stored in another workbook.
Use Power Query to connect to and import data from the
Support_EX19_EOM10-1_Population.xlsx workbook. Transform
the data in the Population table to sort it in descending order by
population. Keep only the top 10 rows, and then close and load the
transformed data to a table in cell A2 of the existing worksheet.
3. Pedro wants to create a PivotTable that compares the population and
education data for the top 10 most populated Wyoming counties.
Add the Population query to the Data Model, and then add the
Education query to the Data Model. Use Power Pivot to create a
PivotTable on a new worksheet, using Population Pivot as the name
of the worksheet. Display the County field values from the Population
table as row headings. Sum the Population field values, and then sum
the Area (sq mi) field values. Display the % Completed High School
field values from the Education table as a filter.
4. Pedro also wants to compare the population and age data for the top
10 most populated Wyoming counties.
Use Power Pivot to create a PivotTable on a new worksheet, using
Age Pivot as the name of the worksheet. Display the County field
values from the Population table as row headings. Sum the Population
field values. Display the Median Income field values as a filter. Display
the Median Age field values from the Education table as column
headings.
5. To properly combine data from the tables, create a relationship from
the Population table to the Education table using the Geo ID column
to relate the tables.
6. Pedro asks you to make the PivotTable on the Age Pivot worksheet
easier to interpret and to display data only for residents with a high
median income.
Format the Population values using the Number format, 0 decimal
places, and a 1000 separator. Display the text Median Age in cell C3.
Display the text County in cell B4. Filter the Median Income values to
show population data for those with a median income of $60,000 or
more.
7. Return to the Population Pivot worksheet. Pedro wants to format the
data in this PivotTable and calculate the number of people per square
mile.
Format the Population and Area data using the Number format, 0
decimal places, and a 1000 separator. Create a measure named
Density and use Population per square mile as the description.
Insert a formula that divides the Sum of Population field by the Sum of
Area (sq mi) field for the measure. Format the measure using the
Number format and 1 decimal place.
8. Pedro wants to focus on the counties with the most high school
graduates.
Filter the PivotTable on the Population Pivot worksheet to display data
for counties where 93, 95, or 96 percent of the population completed
high school.
 9. Return to the Population and Income worksheet. Pedro wants to
include his contact information in case businesses need additional
information from him. He also wants to include the same contact
information on the Overview worksheet. He asks you to record a
macro instead of entering the same information twice.
Enable all macros in the workbook, display the Developer tab on the
ribbon, and then click cell A14. Record a macro stored in this
workbook using ContactInfo as the name of the macro. With the
macro recording, type Contact: Pedro Suarez in cell A14 and then
press ALT+ENTER. With the macro still recording, type Wyoming
Commerce Department and then press ENTER. Stop recording the
macro.
Go to the Overview worksheet, click cell J10, and then run the
ContactInfo macro to insert Pedro's contact information in the cell.
10. Pedro asks you to complete the list of links on the Overview
worksheet.
In cell J6, insert a link to cell A1 of the Age Pivot worksheet. In cell J7,
insert a link to cell A1 of the Population Pivot worksheet. In cell J8,
insert a link to the Support_EX19_EOM10-1_Population.xlsx file.
Add Census Source Data as the ScreenTip for the link in cell J8. In
cell J10, insert a link to the info@wycom.example.gov email
address.
11. Pedro wants to indicate that the link in cell J8 opens another file. In
cell J8, after the "Raw population data" text, insert an external link
symbol, an arrow in a circle (Wingdings 3, symbol 82).
Your workbook should look like the Final Figures on the following pages. Save
your changes, close the workbook, and then exit Excel. Follow the directions
on the SAM website to submit your completed project.
