You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.
Create a new report, and within it a dataset based on the tblFilm table, listing:
- The name of the film (FilmName)
- The running time in minutes (FilmRunTimeMinutes )
- The budget in dollars (FilmBudgetDollars )
Design a report to show for each film the budget per minute, using the notes below this picture as a guide:

Spider-Man 3 had the biggest budget, but wasn't the most expensive per-minute film
Some notes on creating this report:
- Create an expression to calculate the budget per minute (it will be the film budget divided by the running time)
- Change the properties of the table so that it sorts by this same expression
- Add a page header, and within this add two text boxes to get the heading shown
When you've finished, save your report as Animated films cost a lot, then close it down.
