13 ANS: active PTS: 1 REF: EX 53 ESSAY 1. Explain the following Excel 2013 terms: spreadsheet, cell, worksheet, and active cell. ANS: A spreadsheet is a grouping of text and numbers in a rectangular grid or table. Each cell is identified by a cell reference, which is based on the cell s column and row location. A worksheet contains a grid of rows and columns into which you can enter text, numbers, dates, and formulas, and display charts. The cell that is currently selected in the worksheet is referred to as the active cell. PTS: 1 REF: EX 4 EX 7 EX 9 TOP: Critical Thinking 2. The order of operations for arithmetic operators is exponentiation, multiplication, division, addition, and then subtraction. In your opinion, what is the best order of precedence for the following Excel tasks and why: 1) work in editing mode, 2) switch to formula view, 3) rename sheet tabs, 4) resize columns and rows, 5) create a planning analysis sheet, and 6) enter data? ANS: Instructors: There is some flexibility in this answer - the main thing to look for is that students understand that the planning analysis sheet should be the first task performed. Entering data should be next. Renaming sheet tabs, resizing columns and rows, working in editing mode, and switching to formula view can be ordered as the student wishes, as long as they can support their answer with good reasons. Here is an example answer: I think the best order of precedence for the Excel tasks ( 1) work in editing mode, 2) switch to formula view, 3) rename sheet tabs, 4) resize columns and rows, 5) create a planning analysis sheet, and 6) enter data) should be: 1. Create a planning analysis sheet 2. Enter data 3. Resize columns and rows 4. Rename sheet tabs 5. Work in editing mode 6. Switch to formula view Planning should be the first step in any project. Creating a planning analysis sheet before creating an Excel workbook allows the user to figure out what the purpose of the workbook should be and how to achieve the desired results. Entering data should be next so that the workbook can be created and relationships between numbers can be established. Once the data is entered, it might be necessary to resize columns and rows in order to see all of the data. Also, once the data is entered, it makes sense to label sheet tabs if the data is placed on more than one sheet. This step is important for organization, especially considering the last two steps of working in editing mode and switching to formula view. The order of the last two steps depends on the nature of the worksheet. If there are many text entries or number entries that need to be edited, having the worksheet as organized as possible will make working in editing mode that much easier. If the worksheet is full of formulas, the same is true.
14 PTS: 1 REF: EX 13 - EX 14 TOP: Critical Thinking 3. You have three college bound children and you would like to keep track of each of the costs related to tuition. Do you decide to create three Excel workbooks or one Excel workbook with three worksheets and why? ANS: Instructors: There is no right or wrong answer to this question, however the answer should show some critical thinking to support the students decisions. Here is an example: I would create three separate workbooks for my three children I would record the various types of costs associated with each college in separate sheets within each child s workbook. I think it would be much more efficient for each child to have his or her own customized workbook made up of as many individual worksheets as needed. PTS: 1 REF: EX 7 EX 9 TOP: Critical Thinking
