true / false
1. when repetitive transaction-processing operations are automated, human involvement is increasingly required.
a. true
b. false
Ans: false
rationale: correct
computers are most beneficial in transaction- processing operations. these
operations are repetitive, such as printing numerous checks, or involve enormous
volumes of data, such as inventory control in a multinational textile company. when
these systems are automated, human involvement is minimal. see 1-3:the
beginning: transaction-processing systems

2. information systems are broader in scope than information technologies.
a. true
b. false
Ans: true
rationale: correct
information systems are broader in scope than information technologies, but the
two overlap in many areas. both are used to help organizations be more
competitive and to improve their overall efficiency and effectiveness. see 1-1:
computers and information systems in daily life
