    of a Management Information System (MIS)?
    A It automates all business processes. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    C It supports managerial decision-making with relevant data Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D It replaces the need for manual data entry Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E It guarantees 100% data accuracy. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A Management Information System (MIS) is a system designed to provide managers with the tools necessary to organize, evaluate, and efficiently manage departments within an organization. The core advantage of MIS lies in its ability to support managerial decision-making by delivering relevant and timely information. This helps managers make more informed, evidence-based decisions, improving operational efficiency and strategic planning. Why Other Options are Wrong: a) While an MIS may automate some processes, its primary purpose is to support decision-making, not full automation. b) MIS can facilitate communication, but this is more a feature of specialized systems like ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) rather than the primary role of an MIS. d) Although some data entry may be reduced, the MIS does not completely eliminate the need for manual input in all cases. e) No system can guarantee 100% data accuracy due to potential human errors and system malfunctions.
