16 Explanations: 1. 21%. The maximum rounding error in the total revenue is the error that is most deviated from the error free revenue. Error free revenue R=PQ Deviation +10% in P and Q. R=1.1PX1.1Q R= 1.21PQ this is 21% higher than the error free revenue. Deviation -10% in P and Q. R=.9PX.9Q R=.81PQ this is 19% lower than the error free revenue. 2. 1,021. Steps 1 collate the data. Total Costs 10,000. Vat 17.5%. 60% cost to central admin. 30% cost to Finance. Step 2 Exclude the Vat figure. 10,000/1.175 = Step 3 split figure in to 60% & 40% 60%= %= 3404 Steps 4 30% or the 40% 3404X.3 = Re arrangement of the formula % Using the Future value formula calculate the negative growth rate. 5.

Eliminate the distracters from the question, only deal with the female number of students. Total no of Female = 70 Total no of Female at beginner level = 39 If a female is not at pro level she has to be from beginner level. Chances are 39/ Sum of probability is 1. The problem is to find at least one serious error is 1- probability of finding no error at all. The independent chances of each of the error not to occur (0.2 x 0.3 x 0.4) 10. The probability of the buyer being under 25 and from north. Multiplication of the probabilities. No of buyers under 25 and from North is 400 Total number of buyers 5200 Chances are as 400/ rounded up to two decimal The probability of the buyer being under 25 is 1600/ The probability of the buyer being from west is 1300/ The probability of the buyer being under 25 or from west is [1600/ /5200] [1600/5200 X 1300/5200] 12. fx/ f 360/ ,000 Take average of class interval and multiply with the relevant frequency percentage.

Wage inflation is 5 index points year on year, not 5% Step1 Use the weighted average formula Step 2 represent the missing value with X Step 3 Calculate the value by solving the equation for X 127 = (7x X )/ = x 360=3x X= 120 Sub-group Weight Index Non-food Food 3? All items The graph represents the inverse relationship between two variables. As the value of X increases the Value of Y decreases. 23. Both Accounting and Maths are perfectly negatively correlated with Law which suggests that their behaviour is 100% predictable. Therefore, Accounting and Maths must behave predictably and in the same way as each other meaning another perfect correlation, this time positive % C v = Standard Deviation / Mean 3/12 =.25 25% 25. Formula for correlation coefficient is provided with the mathematics table Use the formula for Rank correlation. 20
