Suppose a sample of 100 low-tar cigarettes is randomly selected from a day’s production and the tar content is measured in each. Assuming that the tobacco company’s claim is true‚ what is the probability that the mean tar content of the sample is greater than 4.15 milligrams? [0.00621] 2.

it sold‚ and that units left unsold at the end of the season were sold at a loss that average 8 percent of wholesale price. Therefore‚ the stock out probability equal to 8%/(24%+8%)=25% so there are 75% probability of being less than mean+0.67*SD (standard deviation). According to z table‚ z equal to 0.67 when probability is 0.75. Therefore‚ we can calculate quantity for each style include the risk of stock out by using formulate Q*=mean+z*SD. Therefore‚ we can get the maximum order units for each

13. Variance and Standard Deviation (expected). Using the data from problem 13‚ calculate the variance and standard deviation of the three investments‚ stock‚ corporate bond‚ and government bond. If the estimates for both the probabilities of the economy and the returns in each state of the economy are correct‚ which investment would you choose considering both risk and return? Why? ANSWER Variance of Stock = 0.10 x (0.25 – 0.033)2 + 0.15 x (0.12 – 0.033)2 + 0.50 x (0.04 – 0.033)2 + 0
