Insert a formula into cell G4 that evaluates whether the amount is Parts, Accessories or Services exceed the Quarterly Goal.
For each column that exceeds the goal apply the Quarterly Bouns Rate

 

Please I need to know what is the best answer according to the MOS exam team.

Use the SUMIF formula:

 

In G4 enter 

=SUMIF(B4:D4,">"&$B$18)*$B$17

If you then drag this formula down the references to B4:D4 will increment to B5:D5 while references to $B$18 and $B$17 will remain fixed.
