If the Precious data is p, calculate Carat x 2.50

If the Precious data is not p, calculate Carat x 1.50
In the cell under Total Value, enter a formula which multiplies the Carat by the
Carat Value and adds the Cut Cost and Insurance.
12.1.3
Format the cells in the Carat Value, Cut Cost, Insurance and Total Value
columns to display the $ sign with 2 decimal places.
