Examination, June - 2022 ; (Scheme : CBCs) COMMERCE SC : Statistics for Business Decisions (2021-22 Batch & Repeaters) Time: 3 Hours Max. Marks : 70 PART-A Answer any five questions. Each question carries 5 marks. [5 * 5=25] 1, _ Distinguish between Binomial and Poisson distributions. 2. An article manufactured by a company consists of two parts A and B in the process of manufacture of part A, 8 out of 100 are likely to be defective. Similarly, 4 out of 100 are likely to be defective in the manufacture of part B. Calculate the probability that the assembled parts will not be defective. 3. The income distribution of the population of a certain village has a mean of Rs. 6.000 per month and a variation of Rs. 32,400. Could a sample of 64 persons with a mean income of Rs. 5,950 belong to this population? Test your hypothesis at both 1% and 5% level of significance. 4, What is sampling? State its advantages and limitations. 5, Explain the nature of cyclical variations in time-series. How do they differ from seasonal variations? Explain briefly the additive and multiplicative models of time-series analy: The simple correlation coefficient between temperature (X,), corn yield (X,) and rainfall (X,) are r,,= 0.59, 1,,= 0.46 and r,, = 0.77 respectively. Calculate the partial correlation coefficients r,. "3, and r,,, 8. Explain the concepts of simple, multiple and partial correlations PART -B Answer any three questions. Each question carries 10 marks. {3 x 10 = 30] 9. Discuss the utility of Statistics in business. 10. A set ofexamination marks is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 75 and standard deviation of 5. If the top 5% of students get grade A and the bottom 25% get grade F, what mark is the lowest A and what mark is the highest F? P.T.O.31626/31756 11.

Case Study (Compulsory) [1 «15 =15) The data about the number of units of production per day tuned out by 4 different workers using 4 different types of machines are: Machine type Worker A B c D 1 B 25 B 27 2 4 28 26 25 3 4 26 25 28 4 2B 25 24 28 On the basis of the above information, can it be concluded that: a) The mean productivity is the same for different types of machines? b) The workers do not differ as far as their productivity is concerned? Consider 5% level of significance. rrr 22.
