ABC employs agents to promote and sell its diverse product range and services. To reward and provide incentive to these agents, they are paid a commission of 5% of the amount of sales over the target. For example, the target is $34,000. If an agent sells $40,000 they will receive 5% of $6,000 as a commission. And, for greater incentive, they will receive 10% if they double the target. For example, if an agent sells $72,000 they will receive 10% of $38,000 as a commission. If it's less than the target then the function should not display anything, should make an empty cell. Note that a nested if function is required to calculate the commission. For Status, use a nested if function to display a message "Exceeded" if it is over the target. In case it's equal to the targeted value then the function should display a message "Reached", otherwise the function should not display anything, should make an empty cell.
In this worksheet, the target and commission amounts are displayed in their own cells. These amounts are then referenced by the formulas. Since the formulas will be copied to other cells, you need to be mindful of absolute versus relative cell addressing.
