problem for MS Excel

I would like to change a whole bunch of cells, in a 64 x 11 rectangle. The values in each cell are dollar amounts, and I would like to increase each of these values by 5%. That is, if a dollar amount is $1325.00, and increase in 5% would have it equal $1391.25. Is there a fast way to do this?
 
I am sure there is a tidier way to do this, but this will work:

First cell (for arguments sake, A1): $1325.00
Second (and subsequent cells), copy this into the first one (ie, B1): "= A1*1.05"

If you use the node in the bottom-right corner of cell B1 (after pasting) and drag that into your required area, this should work...

Let me know if this gives you the required result...
