SOLUTIONS FOR TASK 2
1)Total number of book copies sold during January:
To find the total number of book copies sold during January, we need to add up the total copies
sold for each book. We can do this by using the SUM function.
=SUM (B2:B7)
This will give us the total number of book copies sold during January, which is 1200 + 1000 +
1500 + 1100 + 2500 = 6300.
2)Average amount of book copies sold for January: To find the average amount of book copies
sold for January, we need to divide the total number of book copies sold by the number of books
available. We can do this by using the AVERAGE function.
=AVERAGE (B2:B7). This will give us the average amount of book copies sold for January, which
is 6300 / 5 = 1260.
3)The most expensive book from the books available in ABC bookshop:
To find the most expensive book from the books available in ABC bookshop, we need to look at
the price column. The most expensive book is “Pride and Prejudice” with a price of $11.85.
4)The cheapest book available in ABC bookshop: To find the cheapest book available in ABC
bookshop, we need to look at the price column. The cheapest book is “The Great Gatsby” with a
price of $10.99.
5)Number of copies sold from “The Institute”: The answer is 4. We need to compare the number
of copies sold from “The Institute” to the number of copies sold from “The Great Gatsby.” We can
do this by using the IF function. If it is greater than the number of copies sold from “The Great
Gatsby,” display as “YES.”
If not display as “NO.”: =IF(C7>B2, “YES”, “NO”). This will give us the answer “NO” because
the number of copies sold from “The Institute” (1100) is less than the number of copies sold from
“The Great Gatsby” (1200).
6)Next, we Count the number of cells containing the word “CLASSIC.”: To count the number
of cells containing the word “CLASSIC,” we can use the COUNT function which is: =COUNTIF
(A2:A7, “CLASSIC”). This will give us the answer 4, because there are 4 cells in the title column
that contain the word “CLASSIC. “Result: 3

SOLUTIONS FOR TASK 3.
POWERPOINT PRESENTATION IS COMPLETED AND THE FILE IS ATTACHED
SEPERATELY.
EVALUATION ON BENEFITS AND DRAWBACKS OF MICROSOFT POWERPOINT
Microsoft PowerPoint is a widely used presentation software that offers many benefits for users.
However, like any other software, it also has its drawbacks. In this essay, we will carry out an
evaluation of the benefits and drawbacks of Microsoft PowerPoint.
One of the main benefits of Microsoft PowerPoint is its user-friendly interface. It is intuitive and
easy to use, making it accessible to both novice and experienced users. The software offers a wide
range of templates and design options that allow users to create visually appealing presentations
without much effort. Additionally, PowerPoint allows users to easily incorporate multimedia
elements such as images, videos, and audio, enhancing the overall quality of the presentation.
Another benefit of Microsoft PowerPoint is its seamless integration with other Microsoft Office
applications. Users can easily import data from Excel and Word into PowerPoint, making it
convenient to create presentations that include tables, charts, and text. This integration streamlines
the workflow for users who are already familiar with other Microsoft Office applications.
Microsoft PowerPoint also offers a range of features that enhance the effectiveness of
presentations. These features include animations, transitions, and the ability to create interactive
slideshows. Users can also add speaker notes and annotations to their slides, making it easier to
present complex information and engage with the audience.
Despite its many benefits, Microsoft PowerPoint also has some drawbacks. One of the main
drawbacks is the potential for overuse of visual aids, which can detract from the content of the
presentation. The software’s templates and design options may encourage users to prioritize
aesthetics over substance, leading to superficial or unengaging presentations. Another drawback
of Microsoft PowerPoint is its potential for technical issues during presentations. The software’s
compatibility with different devices and operating systems can lead to formatting issues, font
discrepancies, and other errors that disrupt the flow of the presentation. Additionally, reliance on
technology can leave presenters vulnerable to technical malfunctions, such as projector failures or
software crashes. Ultimately, the effectiveness of Microsoft PowerPoint depends on the user’s
ability to leverage its benefits while mitigating its drawbacks.
