Kimm Bearheart is the corporate buyer for vehicles put into service by Express Car Rental. Kimm has the option to buy several lots of vehicles from another rental agency that is downsizing, and wants to get a better idea of the number of rentals nationwide by vehicle type. The corporate accountant has forwarded Kimm a worksheet containing rental data for last year. Kimm wants to use this summarized data but feels that embedding charts will provide a quicker analysis in a more visual manner for the chief financial officer at their meeting next week.
