Emma wants to check if her total sales in cell D4 meet or exceed $5,000. Which function should she enter into cell E4 to return "Target Achieved" if the sales meet the target, and "Below Target" if they do not?

The question asks for an Excel function to display "Target Achieved" when total sales in D4 meet or exceed $5,000, and "Below Target" when they do not.
Option a: =IF(D4>=5000,"Target Achieved", "Below Target"). This uses the greater-than-or-equal-to operator (>=), so any value of D4 that is exactly 5000 or more will yield "Target Achieved" and anything less will yield "Below Target". This aligns with the requirement of “meet or exceed” the target.
Option b: =IF(D4=5000,"Target Achieved", "Below Target"). This only returns true when D4 is exactly 5000. It would fail for values above 5000, which should also be considered meeting the target, so it is incorrect for the stated goal.
Option c: =IF(D4>5000,"Target Achieved", "Below Target"). This uses the strict greater-than (>), so a value of 5000 would not be counted as meeting the target, which contradicts the requirement to include the equal-to case. It misses the boundary condition.
Option d: =IF(D4<5000,"Target Achieved", "Below Target"). This inverts the logic: it would label sales below 5000 as "Target Achieved" and 5000 or more as "Below Target", which is opposite of the intended result and clearly incorrect.
In summary, option a correctly implements the condition by including the equal case and covering all values appropriately, while options b, c, and d fail to handle the boundary or flip the logic, leading to incorrect outcomes.
