This is because a logical function is a type of function that returns a value based on a condition or a set of conditions. A logical function can be used to generate the data in the Sales_indicator column by comparing the values in the Sales column with a threshold of $50,000 and returning either “Exceeded $50,000” or “Not exceeded $50,000” accordingly. For example, a logical function in Excel that can achieve this is:
The other functions are not suitable for generating the data in the Sales_indicator column. Here is why:
Aggregate is a type of function that performs a calculation on a group of values, such as sum, average, count, etc. An aggregate function cannot generate the data in the Sales_indicator column because it does not compare the values in the Sales column with a threshold or return a text value based on a condition.
Date is a type of function that manipulates or extracts information from dates, such as year, month, day, etc. A date function cannot generate the data in the Sales_indicator column because it does not use the values in the Sales column or return a text value based on a condition.
Sort is a type of function that arranges the values in a column or a range in ascending or descending order. A sort function cannot generate the data in the Sales_indicator column because it does not create a new column or return a text value based on a condition.
