Statistic for Business

STATISTICS FOR ECONOMICS, ACCOUNTING AND BUSINESS STUDIES

---

This text is aimed at students of economics and the closely related disciplines of
accountancy and business, and provides examples and problems relevant to
those subjects, using real data where possible. The book is at an elementary level
and requires no prior knowledge of statistics, nor advanced mathematics. For
those with a weak mathematical background and in need of some revision,
some recommended texts are given at the end of this preface.
This is not a cookbook of statistical recipes: it covers all the relevant concepts
so that an understanding of why a particular statistical technique should be used
is gained. These concepts are introduced naturally in the course of the text as they
are required, rather than having sections to themselves. The book can form the
basis of a one- or two-term course, depending upon the intensity of the teaching.
As well as explaining statistical concepts and methods, the different schools
of thought about statistical methodology are discussed, giving the reader some
insight into some of the debates that have taken place in the subject. The book
uses the methods of classical statistical analysis, for which some justification is
given in Chapter 5, as well as presenting criticisms that have been made of these
methods.
