CONTENT
1. Collect the data (at least 50 observations) on closing
daily stock market prices of any company.
2. Present the data values you have collected in an
appropriate manner.
3. Based on these data, obtain the values of -i) Arithmetic Mean,
ii) Median,
iii) Mode,
Verify and comment on whether the relationship among
the above three measures of central tendency holds good
for your data set.
iv) 6 th decile,
v) 90th percentile,
vi) Range,
vii) Inter quartile range,
viii) Quartile deviation,
ix) Coefficient of quartile deviation,
x) Standard Deviation.
4. Prepare a frequency distribution table with appropriate
class intervals.
5. Draw a Histogram, a frequency polygon, and ogive
curves using the frequency distribution table. Verify some
of the values obtained in Item 2 above, with what you
have obtained from the histogram and the ogives.
Comment on the basis of each graph.
6. Find less than and more than cumulative frequencies.
7. Find the relative frequencies and construct a relative
frequency polygon
8. Which concepts of Statistics you have used to solve
this assignment.

On excel: - =average(number1,number2)
Median:=846.9

On excel: - =median(number1,number2.)
Mode:=806.05

On excel: - =mode(number1,number2..)
Comment:There is slight difference the average and median which shows there is no
more fluctuation in share price of company and can take easily decision for
investment.

Decile:-

Formula=(matrix *6th decline/10)

=50*6/10 =30
Percentile:Pth percentile of a group of observation is that observation below
which lie p% observations.

90th percentile of the 50 days closing stock price

=900.14

On excel: - =percentile(array,k)
percentile in decimal

K = value of

Range:= maximum value minimum value

=131.5
On excel:For maximum value: - =max(number1,number2)
For minimum value: - =min(number1,number2)
Quartile:Certain percentile have greater importance than others because
they break down the distribution of data into four parts. These the
quartiles. The first Quartile Q1 is 25th percentile. It is the point
where lie 1/4th of the data. Second Quartile Q2 is 50th percentile.
This is the same as the median and on this point lie below half the
data. The third Quartile Q3 is 75th percentile and on this point lie
below the 75 per cent of the data.
Q1 (25th percentile) =819.675
Q2 (50th percentile) =846.5
Q3 (75th percentile) =880.35

Inter Quartile data:This is the difference between the first and the third quartile. It is
the measure of spread of the data.
=Q3 Q1
=60.675

Quartile deviation:-

This is the average of the difference between the third Quartile

and first Quartile.
= Q3-Q1/2
=30.3375

Coefficient of quartile deviation:Relative measure of quartile deviation is called the coefficient of

Quartile deviation.
=Q3-Q1/Q3+Q1
=.035691

Standard deviation:=35.43805188

On excel= =STDV.P(NUMBER1,NIMBER2)
4) Data frequency
distribution:For data frequency distribution firstly we have to find class interval.
For appropriate class interval

Formula = Range/square root of N

Range= maxium value minimum value (max
=921.4 ,min = 789.5
=131.9
N=matrix = column * rows
=10*5
=50
Square root of N = 7.071
On Excel = =SQRT(number)

So we will take the value of N = 8

Class internal = Range / square root of N
=131.9/8
=16.4875
So we take the class interval = 17
After the class interval then find the bin array which
means upper limit of the class interval and the find the
frequency distribution.
