Answer to Question 1

While nonprofit organizations have no shareholders, they do have objectives that need strategic planning and that benefit from strategic use of information systems. Running, growing, and transforming the organization are all very relevant to nonprofits, just as they are to the for-profit world, and information systems play a key role.
Nonprofit organizations use IT for various operational requirements; they use information systems for payroll, accounting and finance, human resources, asset management, and related tasks. Many nonprofits also need information systems to track sales and customer transactions, since they may sell products and services, either as part of their mission or as ancillary activities.

Answer to Question 2

B
