Pre-Assessment:
MODIFIED TRUE AND FALSE EXERCISE ON OFFICE SUITE
APPLICATIONS.
DIRECTIONS: Test your knowledge of the lesson on office suite
applications such as Microsoft Office and Open Office by
determining whether the following statements are true or false.
For this activity, print or copy this page on a piece of paper. Write
TRUE if the statement is valid and FALSE if otherwise on the
blank space provided. If the statement is FALSE, write down the
word or phrase that makes it wrong.

False ( Stand alone video and audio editing features )1. Office suite
software is a collection of commonly used applications that
includes stand-alone video and audio editing features.

True 2. Using the same office software typically

reduces training costs and facilitates sharing of documents.
False (Requires) 3. The software as a service approach
requires local installation, with the software readily accessible
online using only an internet browser.

True 4. Google Docs also makes it possible to work

with your document on a mobile phone with the Android operating
system.

True 5. Local installation refers to the most common

way of installing software on the hard drive of a local computer.

True 6. Office suites have built-in tools to convert and

open documents of different formats.

False (distinct) 7. The various office software applications

have a distinct interface.

False 8. Using a series of independent software

applications is more beneficial compared to an office suite.
 True 9. OpenOffice is an open source office suite
that is basically free.

False (DATABASE)10. iWork by Apple is another office suite

application, which includes Database, Pages, Numbers, and
Keynote.

EXERCISE 1
STUDY QUESTIONS:
DIRECTIONS: Follow the instructions below, using Spreadsheet
like Excel tabulate the following situations. Let’s look at an
example of how spreadsheets are used. Consider a spreadsheet
that describes how many products were sold by a store in a single
day.

A. The first column is the NAME OF THE PRODUCT. The

second column is the UNIT PRICE of the product. The third
column contains the NUMBER OF UNITS SOLD that day.
Now you want to calculate the value of total sales for each
product. Simple enough: you multiply the unit price by the
number of units.
B. Let’s say the second row represents the 52-inch LCD
television set. The unit price can be found in cell B2, while
the number of units sold can be found in C2. The necessary
calculation is B2 times C2, and you enter this as a formula in
cell D2 as follows: = B2 * C2. This means that the value of
cell D2 is calculated using a formula that includes the values
of the cells B2 and C2. Using the values of other cells in a
formula is called ‘referencing.’

C. Why is this so powerful? First, if you have a large

number of products, you do not have to type out this
formula again. You can simply copy the formula used
for the cell D2 and paste it into the other cells. With a
few keystrokes, you will have calculated the Value of
total sales for all products.
D. Second, consider what would happen if the price of a product
changes. You enter the new price in cell B2, and the value of cell
D2 updates automatically. Clever! Both of these features can
save you a lot of time. Spreadsheets have numerous pre-defined
functions. The multiplication function (*) used in the example is
just one function. Other examples are functions like SUM,
AVERAGE and COUNT. In addition to arithmetic and
mathematical functions, spreadsheet software also contains
more specialized financial and statistical functions.

E. The availability of so many functions is one of the reasons for

the popularity of spreadsheet software. Another characteristic of
spreadsheets is that cells can be Formatted for certain types of
data. For example, you can work with currency ($),Dates
(01/01/2015) and percentages (%). Spreadsheet software also
includes the ability to turn your numbers into charts, such as pie
charts, bar charts and scatterplots.
