DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

The Far Valley Police Club (FVPC) is a prominent police club in Westmoreland, Jamaica.
The club has been using the manual methods of keeping tracks of their operations. This year
the club executives have decided to computerize its operations for the efficient running of the
club. The computer system they purchased came with general purpose software that has a
Word-processor, Spreadsheet and Database Management components, etc. The executives
would like to use the software to carry out the following tasks for the period 2019-2023:

1. Produce a brochure for Far Valley Police Club that informs the public about the club and
members about upcoming club activities.

2. Analysis of the club details for members for the period 2019 - 2023.

3. Storage of personal information of members and their membership details.

4. Preparation of letters to executive members about the launch of the new club brochure and
an overview of membership dues collected each year for the period 2019-2023.

5. Creation a website to promote their club.

You are in charge of setting up the necessary templates from the various applications that
will efficiently carry out these activities.

SECTION 1: SPREADSHEET

The Far Valley Police Club (FVPC) wants to use a spreadsheet package to create, manipulate
and monitor the club's finances.
There are 25 members in the club. There are different categories of membership and each
category attracts a different rate of membership fees. The membership rates remained the
same for the period 2019-2023. Based on the category of membership, members have
different responsibilities and privileges. The categories of membership with current rates are
given in Table1.
You are required to:

Category Code Rates per month


Bronze B $150
Silver S $200
Gold G $250
Platinum P $300
Table1

Create a spreadsheet with at least two worksheets that will enable the treasurer of the
FVPC to view the members' payment details, income and expenses. Your design must be
easy to follow.

Task A
1. On a worksheet store the data given in the table above.
2. Create information on each of the 25 members' payments for the last five years
with at least five members in each category.
3. The members should be sorted by last name then by first name.
4. For each member, the club maintains a history of payment based on their category, by
year. Indicate in different columns how many months each member pays for to
calculate dues for each year. For example, member Thomas Edwards would have
payment details from 2019 to 2023. These records will indicate how much money
was paid for each of those years and how much is still outstanding.
5. In the Payments worksheet, create a column called Status. Based on each member's
payments it should display 'Outstanding' if they owe money for fees and ‘Paid' if they
paid their dues fully.
6. In 2020, it was decided that if a member has outstanding fees, he or she would be
charged 25% of the outstanding amount as a fine that year. Show new adjusted in
outstanding for the year.
7. In 2023, the executives gave a 5% decrease for dues to celebrate members.
8. On a section of the spreadsheet, calculate
a. The largest amount outstanding by any one member.
b. The number of people with an outstanding amount.
9. Create a summary section with the following information.
a. Total amount paid, total amount outstanding, to fines owed by members.
b. The average amount outstanding.
10. Save your worksheet as Task (A).
Task B
1. Make a copy of your workbook and name it Task B.
2. The third member is no longer a part of the club because of migration. Remove
member from the spreadsheet.
3. It has been decided to change the fine rate for outstanding fees to 30.5%. Add this
rate in your spreadsheet.
4. Sort the worksheets by the amount outstanding.
5. Create a complex criterion to select all information on members who have an
outstanding status and are in the Silver category.
6. Create a column graph showing the total membership dues collected each year for the
period 2019-2023. Label the chart appropriately.

Save changes to TASK B.


Task C
7. Make a copy of your workbook and name it Task C.
8. In an appropriate area of the spreadsheet. Use the complex criterion option to
obtain information from the workstation
(i) Records of all the members who owes greater than $500.00
9. Create a pivot table to summarize all members with total outstanding fees greater than
$1000.00 over the five years. Sort by Lastname in the decending order.
10. Create a pie chart is to reflecting the total fines charged to each category of
membership in 2021
11. Save changes to TASK C.
