Column width
Widen the column widths to show the titles.
Insert a formula in cell D4
Ticket prices for 2011 are 5% more than in 2010.
Create a formula in cell D4 that calculates the 5% increase (shown in cell C19).
Absolute cell references
If you have not already done so, make the reference to cell C19 in the formula you have just entered into cell D4, an absolute cell reference (hint $).
It needs to be an absolute reference because the formula will need to be replicated to the remainder of the cells in the column later in the task.
Insert a formula in cell E4
In cell E4, create a formula or use the SUM function to calculate the Adult Ticket Price for
2011. You will need to add the 5% increase (in cell D4) to the 2010 price (in cell C4).
Autofill
Use Autofill to copy the formula in cell D4 to cells D5:D15 and the formula in E4 to cells
E5:E15.
