Topics covered will include frequency distributions, measures of central tendency and dispersion, probability, normal distributions, sampling methods, trends, cycles, simple correlation, and regression.
All topics have application to business problems.
There will also be open book computer problems. Students who know they will be absent may take an exam early. However, any student who misses a regularly scheduled exam will need to take a comprehensive final during finals week. Just like the real world, exams may contain more material than can be completed during the time allotted for testing. Please budget your time when doing a test.
