问题如下:
The table below shows the monthly stock returns of Ivy Corp.
According to the above table , calculate the population standard deviation for Ivy Corp. returns, assuming the population has 6 observations?
选项:
A.
8.78%.
B.
8.01%.
C.
48.06%.
解释:
B is correct
Population variance is 64.2 as calculated in previous question, thus population standard deviation is 8.01, the square root of 64.2.
问的是假如总体有六个observation,是不是说明这六个值不是整体,只是一个样本?
还有虽然我知道总体和样本的方差计算,但是这二者有什么联系和应用呢?如果我有一个样本,用样本的公式计算,再用得出的数值去估衡量整体吗?是否可以讲一下计算样本统计量的意义
