  • Maths Question on RPI/Index ?

    Question 1:

    A person has a portfolio of 4 shares.

    The price and quantity of shares held between 2006 and 2010 are as follows:

    2006 2006 2010 2010

    Share Price no. held Price no. held

    A 293 256 200 180

    B 350 650 265 250

    C 105 600 140 400

    D 50 100 159 200

    Give your answers to 2 decimal places

    (a) What is the base-weighted (Laspeyres) price index? 4 marks

    (b) What is the current-weighted (Paasche) price index? 4 marks

    Question 2:

    The price of a house in a residential district fell from £534 000 in 2008 to £301 000 in 2010.

    The average RPI in 2008 was 214.8 and in 2010 was 223.6.

    By deflating the 2010 price to 2008 prices state the real drop in price? 4 marks

    Question 3:

    An employee of a company receives an index-linked salary of £41 000 for 2006.

    Assuming the average value of the RPI for 2006 was 193.4 and for 2010 was 223.6,

    what is the employee's salary for 2010? 4 marks

    Question 4: The following data refers to monthly demand for a certain product:

    MONTH 1 2 3 4 5

    DEMAND 178 180 156 150

    Give your answers to 2 decimal places

    (a) Use exponential smoothing with α value of 0.2 to obtain a forecast for month 6

    (b) Calculate the MAD statistic for this α value

    (c) Calculate the MSE statistic for this α value

  • Normal Distribution Question? Quite Hard !?

    A car- hire firm has 8 cars which it rents out by the day. The number of demands for a car each day has a Poisson distribution with mean equal to 7 and the charge for hire is a flat rate (irrespective of mileage) of £23. Giving your answers to 2 decimal places, what is the probability that on a particular day

    (a) the demand for cars exceeds the number of cars available for hire?

    (b)Four cars are hired?

    (c) between 4 to 6 cars inclusive are hired?

    (d) Determine the average daily income of the firm.

  • Normal Distribution PLEASE HELP !?

    I recently asked this question but it couldnt be answered because of lack of info, so ive tried to rewrite this,

    Bottles of water are labelled as being 750g in weight. If the actual weights of the bottles are normally distributed with mean 760g and s.d of 5g.

    1) Bottles of water are delivered in boxes of 100 bottles. What is probability that a randomly chosen box of 100 bottles will weigh less than 75kg(75000g)?

    2) What is the probability than none of the 100 bottles in a randomly chosen box will weigh less than 750g?

    3) If B is number of bottles in a randomly chosen box that weighs less than 750g, what is the expected value(mean) of B and its variance ?

    I have no idea how to work this out however the mark scheme says the answers to either 1 or 2 is (1-0.02275)^100 = 0.1

    and answer to c is mean = 2.275, variance = 2.223

    Im confused, dont know how to get these answers...HELP :( !
