An engineer wishes to design a test to find the mean resistance of a wire. He wants to determine asample size so that if the mean is different than 0.8 ohms (say, in reality the mean is more than 0.15ohms different from 0.8 in either direction), the test will detect this with high probability, like 90%.The standard deviation is known to be 0.9 and the significance level of the test 0.08.What is the required sample size?110.25X

How do I write the formula to compute which proposal to select? The sample answer is given next to it. I need to write an “IF” statement and be able to drag that “IF” statement down to the other cells and for it to be correct.
True or false? Beta of MSFT is 0.7 and beta of RCL is 1.33. One can conclude that unsystematic risk of RCL is higher than unsystematic risk of MSFT.
Suppose that Mr Plutus has been asked to choose between various pairs of strategies and he responds as follows: Choose between: Response B and D В A and D C and D D B and E indifferent A and C A D and E Е. Assuming that Mr Plutus' preferences satisfy the four von Neumann-Morgenstern axioms, how does Mr Plutus rank the five instruments A,B,C,D and E? Select one: E = B > D > C > A а. || O b. E = B > A > D > C Ос. B = E > D > C > A O d. E = B > D > A > C %3D
The two-dimensional wave equation describing the vibrations of an infi- nite string is Θη Ot2 2021 მ2 where n = n(x,t), — -x 0 is a constant. Its general solution can be written as n(x,t) = F(x-ct) + G(x + ct), with F and G arbitrary smooth functions. If at time t = 0 the shape of the string is n(x, t = 0) at 9 = 5+x4 and the string is released with velocity (x, t = 0) = 0, determine n(x,t) for t > 0.
Over the past four days, the realized values of the random variable A are: 8, -2, 2 and 11. In the same order, the realized values of the random variable B are: 6, 2, 2 and -10. Compute the correlation between A and B.
How large a sample should be selected to provide a 95% confidence interval with a margin of error of 6? Assume that the population standard deviation is 20. Round your answer to next whole number.
Please step by step solutions
the standard deviation for part c are all wrong. could you please check it again?
S1: Mean per unit estimation is a classical variable sampling technique that projects the sample average to the total population by multiplying the sample average by the number of items in the population. S2: The more the auditor is relying on other substantive procedures to reduce to an acceptable level the detection risk regarding a particular population, the less assurance the auditor will require from sampling, and the smaller the sample size can be. a. BOTH STATEMENTS ARE TRUE b. BOTH STATEMENTS ARE FALSE c. ONLY S1 IS TRUE d. ONLY S2 IS TRUE
Consider the following four statements about value at risk (VaR): The choice of VaR confidence interval and time horizon should be uniform across users. There is not much uniformity of practice as to confidence interval and time horizon; as a result, intuition on what constitutes a large or small VaR is underdeveloped. There are a number of computational and modeling decisions that can greatly influence VaR results, such as the length of time series used for historical simulation or to estimate moments; and the technique used for estimating moments. There are a number of computational and modeling decisions that can greatly influence VaR results, such as mapping techniques and the choice of risk factors. Which of the above statements is/are true?
Which of the following statements is correct about monetary unit sampling?a. The risk of incorrect acceptance must be specified.b. Smaller logical units have a higher probability of selection in the sample than larger units.c. Each logical unit in the population has an equally likely chance of being selected in the sample.d. The projected misstatement cannot be calculated when one or more misstatements are discovered.
None
