STATICTICS AND
MEASURES OF CENTRAL TENDENCY
STATICTICSThe word statistics refers to quantitative information or to a method of dealing with quantitative information.
The methods by which statistical data are analyzed are called STATISTICAL METHODS.
STATISTICAL METHODS are applicable to a very large number of fields-economics,sociology,antropology,business,agriculture,psychology,medicines,education.
FUNCTIONS OF STATISTICSIt presents facts in a definite formIt simplifies mass of figuresIt facilitates comparisonIt helps in formulating and testing hypothesisIt helps in predictionIt helps in the formulation of suitable policies
CHARTING DATAMost appropriate way to represent the data
is through charts.
Pictorial representation helps in quick understanding of the data.
A chart can take the shape of either a diagram or a graph.
A pie chart is a circular representation of
data when a circle is divided into sectors
with areas equal to the corresponding
component. These sectors are called slices
and represent the percentage breakdown of
the corresponding components.
BAR-CHARTBAR-CHARTA bar chart is a graphical device used in depicting data that have been summarized as frequency, relative frequency, or percentage frequency
The statistical meaning of histogram is that it is graph that represent the class frequencies in frequency distribution by vertical adjacent rectangle
Example: The following is a list of prices (in dollars) of birthday cards found in various drug stores:
1.45 2.20 0.75 1.23 1.25 1.25 3.09 1.99 2.00 0.78 1.32 2.25 3.15 3.85 0.52 0.99 1.38 1.75 1.22 1.75
we Make a frequency distribution table for this data.
We omit the units (dollars) while calculating. The values go from 0.52 to 3.85 , which is roughly 0.50 to 4.00 . We can divide this into 7 intervals of equal length: 0.50 - 0.99 , 1.00 - 1.49 , 1.50 - 1.99 , 2.00 - 2.49 , 2.50 - 2.99 , 3.00 - 3.49 , and 3.50 - 3.99 . Then we can count the number of data points which fall into each interval--for example, 4 points fall into the first interval: 0.75, 0.78, 0.55, and 0.99--and make a frequency distribution table:
Intervals in (dollars) frequency0.50- 0.99 41.00- 1.49 7 1.50 -1.99 3 2.00 -2.49 32.50 -2.99 0 3.00 -3.49 2 3.50 -3.99 1Total 20
Making a Histogram Using a Frequency Distribution Table A histogram is a bar graph which shows frequency distribution.To make a histogram, follow these steps: 1.On the vertical axis, place frequencies. Label this axis "Frequency". 2.On the horizontal axis, place the lower value of each interval. Label this axis with the type of data shown (price of birthday cards, etc.) 3.Draw a bar extending from the lower value of each interval to the lower value of the next interval. The height of each bar should be equal to the frequency of its corresponding interval.
Example: Make a histogram showing the frequency distribution of the price of birthday cards. Histogram
A frequency polygon is a graph of frequency distribution. It is particularly effective in comparing two or more frequency distribution.There are two way in which a frequency polygon may be constructed:1. we may draw histogram of the given data and then join by straight lines the mid-point of the upper horizontal side of each rectangle with the adjacent rectangle.2. anther method of constructing frequency polygon is to take the mid-points of the various class-intervals and then plot the frequency corresponding to each point and to join all these points by straight lines. j

PARETO CHART It is a special type of vertical bar chart in which
the categorized responses are plotted in the
descending rank order of their frequencies and
combined with a cumulative polygon on the same
graph.
The main focus of the Pareto chart is to separate
the “vital few” from the “trivial many.”
Case: A departmental store conducted a customer satisfaction survey of 455 frequent customers . The survey group prepared a questionnaire that was divided in two parts: satisfaction reasons and dissatisfaction reasons. Departmental store has decided to focus on the reasons of dissatisfaction to improve its quality of service. The following observations regarding categories of dissatisfaction were made:

STEM AND LEAF PLOT Stem-and-leaf plot can be constructed by separating the digits of
each number into two groups, one as a stem and the other as a leaf.
This plot is mainly used for examining the shape and spread of data.
After separating the data, the left-most digit is termed as the stem and is the higher valued digit. The right-most digit is termed as the leaf and is the lower valued digit.
State of auto manufacturingAccording to data released by the Automotive News Data Center, General MotorsCorporation is number one in
the world in totalvehicle sales of cars and light trucks. FordMotor Company is number two followed by Toyota Motor Corporation
and Volkswagen,respectively. Between 1999 and 2000, while General Motors maintained its number oneposition, it
sold nearly 200,000 fewer cars worldwide. During this same period, Ford Motorincreased sales by more than 200,000. The
greatest percentage growth from 1999 to 2000was for PSA Peugeot-Citroen, which increased sales by 14.2%. The global
sales figures forthe top 10 auto manufacturers of cars and light trucks for both 1999 and 2000 follow.Suppose you are a
business analyst for one of these companies. Your manager asks you toprepare a brief report showing the state of car and light truck
sales in the world. You areto compare your company's position with other firms.

SCATTER PLOTThe scatter plot is a graphical presentation of the
relationship between two numerical variables.
It generally shows the nature of the relationship
between two variables.
The application of a scatter plot is very common
in regression, multiple regressions, correlation,
etc.
Q. How might you graphically depict the 1999 data against the 2000 data?

ARITHMETIC MEAN The arithmetic mean (AM) of a set of observations is their
sum, divided by the number of observations. It is generally denoted by x or AM. Population mean is
denoted by μ.
Arithmetic mean is of two types:
Simple arithmetic mean Weighted arithmetic mean
Weighted Arithmetic Mean
The weighted mean enables us to calculate an average that takes into account the importance of each value to the overall total.
GEOMETRIC MEAN Geometric mean (GM) is the nth root of the product of n items of
a series.
Commonly used in the calculation of average rate of growth.

HARMONIC MEANBased on the reciprocal of the numbers averaged.Defined as the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean of the
reciprocal of the individual observation.
It can be written as
Applications of Harmonic MeanUseful for computing average rates
e.g. Average rate of increase of profits or average speed at which any journey has been performed.

Merit and limitationsIt is useful in special cases of averaging
rates.It can not be used when there are both
positive and negative observations or one or more observations have zero values.
It is rarely used in business problems
The median may be defined as the middle or central value of the variable when values are arranged in the order of magnitude.
In other words, median is defined as that value of the variable that divides the group into two equal parts, one part comprising all values greater and the other all values lesser than the median.
To measure the qualitative characteristics of data, other
measures of central tendency, namely median and mode are
used.
Positional averages, as the name indicates, mainly focus on
the position of the value of an observation in the data set.
UNGROUPED DATA:
1) If n(no. of observation) is odd, middle term of a series is size of ((n+1)/2)th term & is the value of a median.
2) If n(no. of observation) is even, middle term of a series are (n/2)th and (n/2+1)th terms . So, arithmetic mean of both the observations is our
median.
GROUPED DATA:
MEDIAN=L+ [N/2-p.c.f]/F* I
Where L=lower limit of class
N=sum of all the frequencies
p.c.f=preceding cumulative frequency to median class
F=frequency of median class
i=class interval of median class

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MEAN,MEDIAN & MODE
*distribution in which values of mean,median,mode coincide are symmetrical distribution.
*distribution in which values of mean,median,mode are not equal are asymmetrical or skewed.
The distance between mean & median is approximately one-third of the distance between the mean and mode.
Acc. To Karl Pearson :
Mean-median=1/3(mean-mode)
Mode=3median-2mean
Median=(2mean+mode)/3
QUARTILES Partition values are measures that divide the data into several
equal parts. Quartiles divide data into 4 equal parts, deciles divide data into 10 equal parts, and percentiles divide data into 100 equal parts.
For an individual series, the first and third quartiles can be computed using the following formula:
Values of quartiles can be measured as : Q(for k=1 to n)=k(n+1)/4
Example : Q1=first quartile = (n+1)/4
DECILES In a data series, when the observations are arranged
in an ordered sequence, deciles divide the data into 10 equal parts. In the case of individual series and discrete frequency distribution, the generalized formula for computing deciles is given as:
Values of decile can be measured as :D(for k=1 to n)=k(n+1)/10Example: D1=(N+1)/10
PERCENTILES In a data series, when observations are arranged in an ordered
sequence, percentiles divide the data into 100 equal parts. For an individual series and a discrete frequency distribution, the generalized formula for computing percentiles is given as:
VALUES OF PERCENTILE CAN BE MEASURED AS :P(for k=1 to n)=k(n+1)/100Example : P1=(n+1)/100
Example: From the following data, find the first and third quartiles.
The first and third quartiles can be computed by applying the formula
discussed above. The data is already arranged in an ordered manner:
