the screen horizontally and drawing one plot per slice) and superimposing the plots
(e.g., drawn on top of each other).

60816 auto loans in the quarter between April–June 2012. Today, about a
year and a quarter since the loans disbursal, the loans have seasoned or bad
loans are tagged to a greater certainty . It is noticed a bad rate of around
2.5% or 1524 bad loans out of total 60816 disbursed loans.
Analyze the bad rate across several individual variables. Hunch based on
theexperience that borrower’s age at the time of loan disbursal is a key
distinguishing factor for bad rates. Therefore, the loan is divided based on
the age of the borrowers and created a table something like the one below.
Using the above table, create a histogram and zoom into the area of interest
(Good Loans and bad loans).Also create a Normalized Plot, scale each age
group to 100% and overlay bad and good percentage of records on top.
