- 7. Absolute and Relative Cell References Use relative cell references for each employees gross pay Use absolute cell references for withholding rate and FICA rate
- 8. Example of Isolated Assumptions Assumptions are isolated and clearly labeled
- 13. Pointing Use the mouse to select the cells to be included in the formula Notice the color coding between the borders around the selected cells and the formula in the formula bar
- 14. Using the Fill Handle Select cells E2:H2. Dragging the fill handle will copy all four cells to lower rows. Border around selected area. Release the mouse and formulas are copied

Editor's Notes
- Format all dollar amounts with a dollar sign and two decimal places and all percentages as percent format with no decimal places.
- Notice that assumptions are clearly labeled and isolated from the body of the worksheet. This makes editing the values at a later date much easier.
- When demonstrating how to use the fill handle, pay particular attention to the shape of the cursor. It must be a crosshair to use the fill handle to copy cells. Students often end up selecting a cell range rather than using the fill handle. Remind them they must release the mouse button to copy the cells. Also, the fill handle can only be used to copy to contiguous cells. Comments can be used to explain why certain values were chosen, the logic behind formulas, the creator of the workbook, along with the date it was created, or any other free-form text entry. In that way, they are much like creating comments when writing computer code.
- The cursor will change to a black crosshair. Students sometimes confuse the crosshair with the larger plus sign that indicates that a cell is selected.
- Comments are indicated by a small triangle in the upper right corner of a cell.
