The concentration versus absorbance graph yielded a straight line with R2 = 0.995. The limitation of pipetting skill can be seen clearly in the absorbance value of 1:250 solution, which slightly goes off the trendline. A possible error was that the required amount of liquid was not fully released to the tube. However, based on the linearity of the graph, the pipetting and dilution skills were acceptable. The DH5α in LB plate resulted in no bacterial growth, which indicates that some sources of error

Chapter 1.0 Introduction & Background 1.1 Introduction: Banks are very old form of financial institution that channels excess fund from surplus unit to deficit unit in consideration of a price called interest. Banking business definitely established on a relationship of Debtor-creditor between the surplus unit called depositor and the bank and between the deficit unit called borrowers and the bank. Here, opportunity coast of money works as interest is considered the price of the credit

symptom in patients with chronic heart failure, but little is known about this phenomenon. Fatigue for this sample of chronic heart failure patients was significantly predicted by depression, EF, and NYHA. 2. Are the major variables identified and defined conceptually and operationally? Identify the variables of the study and specify their level of measurement (nominal, interval, ordinal, and ratio). ( 5 points) Yes, the major variable was identified and defined conceptually and operationally. The

of stocks in the major U.S. equity indices over the last four decades. We find that the equal-weighted portfolio with monthly rebalancing outperforms the value- and price-weighted portfolios in terms of total mean return, four factor alpha, Sharpe ratio, and certainty-equivalent return, even though the equal-weighted portfolio has greater portfolio risk. The total return of the equal-weighted portfolio exceeds that of the value- and price-weighted because the equal-weighted portfolio has both a higher

of return. It is defined as the weighted average rate of return a company must pay to its long-term creditors and shareholders for the use of their funds. When WACC is used as the discount rate, it serves as a screening device in net present value analysis. To calculate WACC we must first find the expected return on share i E(Ri), using the securities market line equation, as follows: E(Ri) = RF + βi (E(RM) - RF) = 3% + 1.2 (13% - 3%) = 15% E(Ri) = expected return on share

Using the ex-post factor research design, secondary data were extracted from the company’s annual report and accounts for the relevant period. The Ordinary Least Square (OLS) analytical technique was adopted for data analysis.

interpretation The purpose of descriptive statistics, as the name suggests, is to describe a set of data. They are used to provide manageable summaries of data sets. They are the simplest and most widely used set of statistics and in many data analysis projects they will provide all the information required. There are many techniques available for describing a set of data. In this course we will look at three groups of univariate statistics, namely i) Frequency Distributions (ii)

average taking into account the probability. Difference between DV and Random Variable. ***We control a decision variable, and so we can stop being uncertain about it any time we want to make the decision. Random variables are used in decision-analysis models only to represent quantities that we do not know and cannot control. Let us use the variable X to represent number of dots from tossing a fair die. a. Tabulate the probability and cumulative distribution of X X=xi 1 2 3 4 5 6 Probability
