Description
Relating statistics to business-studies, this book makes use of cited statistics from research and general literature. Over 1600 end-of-section and end-of-chapter exercises provide students with a variety of types and sources, and with thorough practice. Bivariate data analysis is presented early - important for students who cover business statistics in one term and need to be exposed to bivariate data. Sampling is also presented early so that students know where data comes from and how it is gathered. Quality control and control charts are discussed earlier than is usual because of its emphasis in the international market place and its timeliness. This book should be of interest to business, accounting, finance, management, marketing, and economics students studying statistics.
