7. The Idea and the tables

• We build two tables, one called Expenses and other called Departments.

14. A new table
• We have 200, 000 records.
• We have information from 2000 to 2012.
• We have information for Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4.

• Create a table called TOTAL_EXPENSES where the data would make more
sense.
