For the 2017 observations, find the prior year (2016) Auditor and Auditor Key, and prior year (2016) audit fees. Use the VLOOKUP function in excel to perform this task. This should result in 3 additional columns for each of the 2017 observations. Label the 3 additional columns Prior Year Auditor, Prior Year Aud Key, and Prior Year Audit Fees, respectively. (HINT: Use the CIK Code for the ‘lookup_value’, and ‘FALSE’ for exact match in the VLOOKUP function statement).
