She needs to determine her total spending in the 'Groceries,' 'Transportation,' and 'Entertainment' categories, and calculate the total remaining discretionary income for the upcoming month. She wants to organize this data into a clear, actionable spreadsheet format for her accountant, focusing only on expenses exceeding $100 in each category.
