Question 3.
Fit a straight line trend by the method of least squares to the following data.
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 5
Solution:
Let x denote the years and y denote the sales. Since number of years is even,
we take X = \(\frac{x-1983.5}{0.5}\)

The trend values are obtained by substituting the years for x, and given in the table.
When x= 1980, Yt = 55.9875 + 0.83(-7) = 50.1775
When x = 1981, Yt = 55.9875 – 5(0.83) = 51.8375
When x = 1982, Yt = 55.9875 – 3(0.83) = 53.4975
When x= 1983, Yt = 55.9875 – (0.83) = 55.1575
When x = 1984, Yt = 55.9875 + (0.83) = 56.8175
When x = 1985, Yt = 55.9875 + 3(0.83) = 58.4775
When x = 1986, Yt = 55.9875 + 5(0.83) = 60.1375
When x = 1987, Yt = 55.9875 + 7(0.83) = 61.7975
We find that ΣYt = ΣY = 447.9

Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 10
From the index numbers, we conclude that for the same quantity, the price has reduced by 50.5% in the current year compared to the base year according to Laspeyre’s index. By the Paasche’s index number, we see that the price has reduced by 49.68% in the current year, and according to Fisher’s index number it has reduced by 49.9% in the current year.

Question 6.
Compute the consumer price index for 2016 on the basis of 2015 from the following data.
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 15
Solution:
Consumer price index (CPI) is same as cost of living index. We use the aggregate expenditure method which gives CPI as CPI = \(\frac{\sum p_{1} q_{0}}{\sum p_{0} q_{0}} \times 100\)
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 16
Consumer price index for the year 2016 is = \(\frac{174}{146.50} \times 100\) = 118.77
On the basis of the year 2015, The cost of living has increased by 18.77%

Question 7.
An Enquiry was made into the budgets of the middle-class families in a city gave the following information.
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 17
What changes in the cost of living have taken place in the middle-class families of a city?
Solution:
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 18
For the middle-class families of the city, the cost of living has increased up to 26.1 % in 2011 as compared to 2010.

Question 8.
From the following data, calculate the control limits for the mean and range chart.
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 19
Solution:
Since the sample size is 5, we used A2 = 0.577, D3 = 0, D4 = 2.114, from the table given.

Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 21
We see that one sample \(\bar{X}\) value 47 is below the LCL of \(\bar{X}\). To infer that the process is not totally out of control since^the difference is less. Further investigation is recommended.

Question 9.
The following data gives the average life (in hours) and a range of 12 samples of 5 lamps each. The data are
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 22
Construct control charts for mean and range. Comment on the control limits.
Solution:
In this question the number of observations is 5 for each sample. So we use A2 = 0.577, D3 = 0, D4 = 2.114 from the table of control chart constants.

Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 24
We observe that the sample \(\bar{X}\) value 1080 is below the LCL. All sample range values are within the control limits for R. We say that process is out of control.

Question 10.
The following are the sample means and ranges for 10 samples, each of size 5. Calculate the control limits for the mean chart and range chart and state whether the process is in control or not.

Solution:
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 26
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 9 Applied Statistics Miscellaneous Problems 27
We observe that all sample \(\bar{X}\) values are within the control limits value of \(\bar{X}\) chart. But the sample range value 0.8 is above the UCL of the R chart. So we conclude that the process is out of control.
