		<description>Since I can't see your course book, I'm assuming you want to make a 3D cluster chart of total cost for January and February for each type of supply.

Select the range of cells that have the total cost of each item for January. The first Cell should be the column Label something like "January Total Cost".

-Select Insert\Chart
-Select 3D Column Chart and Finish
-Right Click on the chart and select Source Data
-Select the Series tab
-In the "Category X-axis Labels" text box, put the range of cells that have the Types of Supplies listed.
-Click the "Add"  series button
-In the "Values" text box, select the range of cells that have the February total cost data.
-In the "Name" text box, select the cell that has the February Total Cost column label
-OK

-Right-click on any of the X-axis labels on the chart
-Select Format Axis
-Select the Alignment tab
-Adjust the orientation of the text to 45 degrees
-OK

If you need to set the Y-axis scale to 0.00 to 120.00

-Make sure all your cells with total cost is formatted with two decimals. To do that, 
--select your total cost cells and then right-click on them. 
--Select Format Cells. 
--Select the Numbers tab 
--Select Currency or Number and two decimal places. 
--Do this for both the January and February Total Cost cells.

-If the Y-Axis doesn't have the range set to 0 to 120...
--Right-click on any number on the Y-axis. 
--Select Format axis. 
--Select the Scale tab. 
--You can set the minimum and maximum values for the Y-axis.

Like I said before, I'm making a lot of assumptions on what you want but I hope this gets you pointed in the right direction.</description>
