Question:
The purpose of this assignment is to use Microsoft Excel to create a laptop computer system cost comparison spreadsheet and utilize Microsoft PowerPoint to report the costs and pros and cons of various computer systems.
Your manager has approved the purchase of new laptop computers for your department.
Create an Excel spreadsheet and, in a text box, identify and describe three software programs specific to your career field of study. This should not include Microsoft Office. The software should be used for productivity, data management, unique needs of the field, increasing market share, and increasing competitive advantage.
From this perspective, research various computer systems. In your Excel spreadsheet, identify and summarize the cost base for three laptop computer systems. Include information on the specifications listed below:
- Computer brand and model
- Price
- CPU: type, clock speed, number of cores
- RAM: amount and type
- Screen size and resolution
- Primary disk: capacity, hard drive or SSD
- Optical disc drive (optional)
At the bottom of the spreadsheet, merge a block of several cells to create a large cell. In this area, provide a link to the website where this product can be found.
- Add a new worksheet page and create two pie charts.
- Pie Chart 1 should compare the cost of the three laptop systems.
- Pie Chart 2 should compare the cost of the three software programs.
