6. Group by is used in _____________ tool to apply summary functions on columns.


(a) Consolidate function (b) Group and Outline
(c) What-if scenario (d) Subtotal tool

7. Which tool is used to predict the output while changing the input?
(a) Consolidate function (b) What-if scenario
(c) Goal seek (d) Fine and Replace

8. Which of the following is an example for absolute cell referencing?


(a) C5 (b) $C$5 (c) $C (d) #C

9. _____________ analysis tool works in reverse order, finding input based on the output.
(a) Consolidate function (b) Goal seek
(c) What-if analysis (d) Scenario

B. State whether the following statements are True or False.


1. Consolidate function is used to combine information from two or more sheets into
one. True
2. Consolidate function cannot be used to view and compare data. False
3. Link to source data is checked updates the target sheet if any changes made in the
source data. True
4. Using subtotal in Calc needs to use filter data for sorting. False
5. Subtotal tool can use only one type of summary function for all columns. False
6. Only one scenario can be created for one sheet. False
7. What-if analysis tool uses one array of cells. False
8. Goal seek analysis tool is used while calculating the output depending on the input.
False
9. The output of What-if tool is displayed in the same cell. False

C. Fill in the blanks.


1. Consolidate function is used to combine information from multiple sheets to
Summarize the information.

2. Data can be viewed and compared in a single sheet for identifying trends and
relationships using Consolidate function.

3. Consolidate under Data menu can be used to combine information from multiple
sheets into one sheet to compare data.

4. The Subtotal tool in Calc creates the group automatically and applies functions on the
grouped data.

5. What – if scenario is used to explore and compare various alternatives depending on


changing conditions.

6. What – if tool is a planning tool for what-if questions.

7. What-if analysis tool uses Two array of cells, one array contains input values and the
second uses the formula and display result.

8. Goal Seek helps in finding out the input for the specific output.

D. Answer the following questions


1. Define the terms
(a) Consolidate function
Ans: Data Consolidation allows you to gather together your data from separate worksheets
into a master worksheet. In other words, the Data Consolidation function takes data
from a series of worksheets or workbooks and summaries it into a single worksheet
that you can update easily.

(b) What-if analysis


Ans: What – if analysis is a planning tool for what if questions. In this output is not shown
in the same cells, whereas it uses a drop-down list to display the output depending
upon the input.

(c) Goal seek


Ans: Goal Seek in LibreOffice calc is a feature that helps to find the right input value for a
formula to achieve the desired result. In the other words we can say that it helps in
finding out the input for the specific output.
Usually, you run a formula to calculate a result based upon existing values. By
contrast, using Goal Seek option under Tools menu, you can discover what values will
produce the result that you want.

d) Solver
Ans: Solver option under Tools menu amounts to a more elaborate form of Goal Seek. The
difference is that the Solver deals with equations with multiple unknown variables. It
is specifically designed to minimize or maximize the result according to a set of rules
that you define.

e) Multiple Operation
Ans: Multiple Operation is a planning tool for what-if questions. In this, the output is not
shown in the same cells, whereas it uses a drop-down list to display the output
depending upon the input. The Multiple Operations tool creates a formula array to
display the list of results applying the formula on a list of alternative values used in
the formula. This tool uses two arrays of cells, one array contains the input values and
the second array uses the formula and display the result.

2. Give one point of difference between


(a) Subtotal and What-if
Ans: Subtotal –
The Subtotal tool in calc creates a group automatically and applies common functions
like sum, min, average etc on the grouped data.
What – if This feature is used to explore and compare various outcomes based on
changing conditions. Its particularly useful for financial modelling and forecasting.

(b) What-if scenario and What-if tool


Ans: What – if Scenario
This refers to set of values used to explore and compare various alternatives based on
changing conditions. A scenario is essentially a saved set of cell values for your
calculations. You can easily switch between these sets using the Navigator or a drop-
down list which can be shown beside the changing cells.
Scenarios are a tool to test “what-if” questions. Each scenario is named, and can be
edited and formatted separately. When you print the spreadsheet, only the content of
the currently active scenario is printed.
What – if
This tool is a planning tool for what – if questions. In this, the output is not shown in
the same cells, whereas it uses a drop – down list to display the output depending
upon the output.

3. Give any two advantages of data analysis tools.


Ans: Two advantages :
1) Data analysis is very useful in the beginning of any project to optimize the output.
2) Data analysis is used to predict the output while changing the inputs which reflects
the output and thus one can choose the best plan of action based on it.
4. Name any two tools for data analysis.
Ans: 1) Goal Seek 2) Scenario

5. What are the criteria for consolidating sheets?


Ans: 1) Data types across all the sheets to be consolidated should be same.
2) Label should match from all the sheets which are used for consolidating.
3) designate the first column as the primary column on the basis of which the data is
to be consolidated.

6. Which tool is used to create an outline for the selected data?


Ans: Group and outline in Calc is used to create an outline of the selected data.
