Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To create a formula using the IF function to test whether the total sales for January (in cell B10) is greater than or equal to 200,000, you can follow this general syntax in Excel:

```excel

=IF(B10>=200000, "Result if True", "Result if False")

```

Here's a breakdown of the formula:

- `B10>=200000`: This is the logical test. It checks if the value in cell B10 is greater than or equal to 200,000.

- `"Result if True"`: If the logical test is true (i.e., if B10 is greater than or equal to 200,000), this is the value or formula you want to be displayed.

- `"Result if False"`: If the logical test is false (i.e., if B10 is less than 200,000), this is the value or formula you want to be displayed.

In your case, if you want a simple message like "Sales are sufficient" when true and "Sales are not sufficient" when false, you can use the formula:

```excel

=IF(B10>=200000, "Sales are sufficient", "Sales are not sufficient")

```

You can enter this formula in the cell where you want the result to be displayed. Replace "Sales are sufficient" and "Sales are not sufficient" with the actual messages you want.
