Week’s Key Points:–Graphical Techniques last week–Numerical Techniques this week(Methodsof

organizing, summarizing, and presenting data in a convenient and informative way)(90% of the quiz
will be based on this lecture)Numerical Description of Data?Is mainly to do with numbers and data
sets.Centre and Dispersion of data sets involve summarising the data using numerical
measures.Measures which can be manipulated or analysed to help describe or make decisions about
a data set.What are the “4 Numerical Techniques-Objectives”?1.Measures of central location: Mean,
Median, Mode2.Measures of variability: Range, Standard deviation, Variance, Coefficient of
variation3.Measures of relative standing (next week): Percentiles, Quartiles4.Measures of linear
relationship (next week): Covariance, Correlation, Coefficient of determination, Least squares

ere are many compelling reasons that companies look to developing

countries for growth. Less-developed countries hold the promise of large,
fast-growing consumer markets (e.g., the BRICs); an abundance of cheap
labor; and access to otherwise unavailable natural resources. Managers
are often lured by this unbridled potential.

But there is a reason these countries are considered “developing” –

largely because of the under-developed state of their institutional
environments (see also Summer Reading: The Birth of Plenty).
