To prepare for Exam #1 tomorrow I would suggest spending time understanding the concepts listed by Chapter in the Exam #1 Review. In addition, I would suggest spending time practicing these tasks (the 14 listed below) using the various data sets in the black_7e_excel_database or other data sets in the text.
Good luck!
For Exam 1 you need to be prepared to answer questions on the following topics:
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
The test format may include True/False, Multiple Choice, and Short Answer questions as you’ve seen on Quizzes. In addition, you should prepare for questions requiring Numerical Calculation, Short Essay, Case Study with business decision interpretation and production of Charts or Graphs similar to what’s been on the Exercises (but without any need for a laptop or other computing device).
Feel free to post questions here and I will do my best to answer in advance or during class Thursday.
