Correlation is a measure to define the relationship between two variables.

<u><em>Error in each of the given statements is briefly explained as follows:</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

  • a). In the first statement, gender refers to a nominal variable and income refers to a continuous variable. It is not possible to compute the correlation between a continuous variable and a nominal variable. Hence, there exists no correlation between the income of American workers and their gender.
  • b). It is not possible to have a value of correlation as 1.09 between two variables. It is because the value of correlation ranges between -1 to +1. Thus, the value of correlation i.e. 1.09 is computed wrongly in this statement.
  • c). Correlation represents the relationship between two variables; it cannot compute the number of bushels. Therefore, in this statement number of bushels cannot be assigned to correlation.

<u><em>The complete question is:</em></u>

“

Each of the following statements contains an error. Explain what’s wrong in each case.

(a) "There is a high correlation between the gender of American workers and their income."

(b) "We found a high correlation (r = 1.09) between students’ ratings of faculty teaching and ratings made by other faculty members."

(c) "The correlation between planting rate and yield of corn was found to be r = 0.23 bushel."

pickupchik [31]

Complete Question:

A 60-year old retiree is in a very low tax bracket. He has a low risk tolerance and wishes to make an investment that will provide income. Which is the BEST recommendation?

Group of answer choices.

A. Mid-cap common stock

B. Municipal bond

C. Bank CD

D. Treasure STRIPS

Answer:

C. Bank CD

Explanation:

In this scenario, a 60-year old retiree is in a very low tax bracket. He has a low risk tolerance and wishes to make an investment that will provide income. A Bank certificate of deposit (CD) is the best recommendation.

A bank certificate of deposit (CD) can be defined as a secured form of time-bound deposit and a special low-risk savings account, wherein money (lump-sum) are left with the bank for a specific period of time in exchange for an interest rate premium.

Generally, a certificate of deposit pays a higher interest rate to its holder than the regular savings account because the banks invest the money in a business.

<em>Additionally, the bank certificate of deposit is protected and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) for up to $250,000.</em>

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Material quantity variance = $9,380 adverse

Explanation:

<em>A material usage variance occurs when the standard quantity required to active a particular level of production is higher or lower than than the actual actual quantity used. A favorable variance would mean than less quantity of materials were used than the standard to achieve a given output level. And an adverse variance would mean the opposite</em>

We can calculate it as follows:

                                                                                         grams

4,400 units should have used (4,400× 2 grams)            8,800

but did use                                                                   <u>    10,140</u>

<u> </u>                                                                                    1,340 adverse

standard price per g                                                ×<u> $7______</u>

Material quantity variance                                    <u>       $ 9,380 adverse</u>

Material quantity variance = $9,380 Adverse
