For a class project, you measure the weight in grams and the tail length in millimeters of a group of mice. The correlation is r

= 0.7. The scatterplot shows one outlier of the relationship, falling clearly below the overall pattern of points. It turns out that this mouse was sick, and you decide to exclude it from the data set. With the outlier removed, do you expect the value of r to increase, decrease, or stay the same?

Answer: We can expect that the correlation coefficient will increase once the outlier is removed.  

The Pearson's correlation coefficient is known to be sensitive to outliers. Outliers can inflate or deflate the correlation coefficient to the extent that it can lead to wrong conclusions.  

An outlier that is mostly consistent with the trend will inflate the correlation coefficient; while an outlier that is not consistent with the trend will decrease the correlation coefficient.  

In this case the weight and tail lengths of one mouse is inconsistent with the trend. When this data is removed from the sample, we can expect the value of r to increase.

Answer: The correct answer is "the flights are low and frequent, interfering with enjoyment of his land".

Sheridan Co. purchased machinery that cost $2650000 on January 4, 2019. The entire cost was recorded as an expense. The machiner
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Recording the entire cost as expense would have understated retained earnings by $2,650,000

Annual depreciation on machine = ( Purchase cost - Residual value ) / Useful life

= ($2,650,000 - $165,000) / 9

= $2,485,000 / 9

= $276,111.11

Depreciation would have been recorded for $552,222 for 2 years had the machinery been corrected recorded I.e $276,111 × 2 = $552,222

Therefore , the cumulative effect of this error on the income statement of Sheridan for the year ended, 31 December 2021 would have shown

= $2,650,000 - $552,222

= $2,097,779
