Positive variances
Oh boy, we're getting close to your crowning achievement.
Let's level up this report by showing each line that increased over 10% and $10,000.
Recall that the AND
function accepts two or more arguments, returning TRUE
if they are all TRUE
and FALSE
if any of the arguments are FALSE
. The function uses the following format:
AND(first argument, second argument, ...)

Conditional Formatting in Google Sheets
Exercise instructions
- Add a conditional formatting rule using a custom formula that highlights each row, column
A
throughF
, that exceeds $10,000 (10000
) and 10% (0.10
) variance.- For each criteria in the
AND
function, fix the column with a$
(e.g.$F2
) but do not fix the row (e.g.$F$2
). - For the purposes of this exercise, make sure to pass the arguments to the
AND
function in the order in which the columns appear (i.e.E
beforeF
).
- For each criteria in the
- Use the Default green background in your custom formula to show the positive variances.
