Spreadsheet assignment Background On advice from your financial advisor Sublime Financial Advisors, you purchased on 1stJuly 2010

a portfolio of shares. These purchases are included in a spreadsheet you have decided to develop to help you analyse the financial performance of your investments. Based on the price of the shares and the numbers purchased, determine the amounts invested in each company and the total investment package. You will need to access on-line sources to determine the value of each shareholding and the total value of the investment on the 30th June 2013 when the decision was made to sell all the shares. Calculate the profit/loss of each share holding and the percentage gain/loss for each share and the overall shareholding. In addition to possible changes in the share prices, dividends may be issued up to twice per year and you should record these as they contribute income during the holding period. These can be found from Yahoo Finance. To locate share prices you should open Yahoo Finance and type the share code into the box to display quotes. Set the appropriate date range to obtain the required prices and choose dividends only to display dividends for the period required. Note not all companies have issued dividends for a given period and a zero value should be used.

Using Microsoft Excel along with appropriate formulae and data obtained from web sources, complete the table below. You may copy and paste the table into Excel from Word. 1. Create the table shown on page 4 and use the facilities of Excel to calculate the total cost for each share bundle. You will need to obtain the selling price of each of the shares and this can be obtained from the ASX share lists or from Yahoo Finance. The ASX codes can be used to find the prices. You should use the Close price shown. Note: If the last day of a period falls on a non-trading day (e.g. 30th June 2013 occurs on a Sunday), then you should use the close price of the last trading day (Friday 28th June 2013). 2. Calculate the market profit or loss for each share at the end of the period. 3. Calculate the revenue for each share in the portfolio from dividends earned during the investment period. This information is available on the Yahoo Finance website and access by entering the ASX code above. Some companies pay annual dividends, some pay half yearly dividends, and some do not always pay a dividend. 4. Determine if the contract was profitable. 5. Determine the total income from dividends and the annual percentage return from the dividends. 6. Calculate the mean dividend per share per annum for the period that the shares were held. 7. Use conditional formatting to highlight those shares that are profitable during the holding period. The formatting should change automatically if the conditions alter. 8. Appropriate formatting and labelling should be used throughout. 9. On a separate worksheet within the workbook, create a summary form to display the number of shares purchased, the total cost for each share, and the final price of the share and total dividends earned. This form should use VLOOKUP functions to automatically display the figures for the selected share. Drop-down lists should be used to select the share from the full table. The form should display details for a single company and may look like the table below. Your figures will be different.

10. On a separate sheet, display a line chart displaying both the purchase cost for each of the shares (i.e., at 1st July 2010) and the sales price per share (i.e., at 30th June 2013).

11. For shares in both the resources sector and finance sector present bar charts for share profits on the day the shares were sold. You can construct a separate table for these. 12. Complete any other calculations indicated on the supplied template.

Completion Guidelines Tasks can be completed outside of class or attempted during class times. You should submit by the due date an appropriately named Excel file to your lecturer, along with a printout of the marking guide with your name inserted. You should change column widths as appropriate, rename work sheet tabs, format cells to display currency or percentage and change the overall appearance of the various work sheets to improve the appearance. The spreadsheet should be easy read and use. The templates provided in this assignment outline are a starting point. We expect that you will develop a spreadsheet that is easy to read, use, and understand. Your charts (graphs) should be appropriately titled and labelled. It is preferable that these graphs are shown on separate worksheets. This is an individual assignment. Your lecturer or tutor will penalise any cases they find of collusion or plagiarism (see page 16 and 17 of the CIS1000 Subject Outline). Submission requirements. Submit a softcopy of the spread sheet file to your lecturer. The file name must include your full name or student number. Your name should also appear in cell A1 in the first page of the spread sheet.
