In moving average method, we cannot find the trend values of some: |
Middle periods
End periods
Starting periods
Between extreme periods
|
2 |
For a least squares linear trend Y = a + bx, the Σ(Y - Y)2 = 0 when: |
All the Y-values are positive
All the Y-values lie on the line
All the Y-values lie above the line
None of these
|
3 |
The additive model of the time series is: |
Y = T + S + C + I
TSCI
Y = a + bX
Y = a + bX + cX<sup>2</sup>
|
4 |
The trend values in freehand curve method are obtained by: |
Equation of straight line
Second degree parabola
Signal
Graph
|
5 |
The multiplicative time series model is: |
Y = T + S + C + I
TSCI
Y = a + bX
Y = a + bX + cX<sup>2</sup>
|
6 |
The rise and fall of a time series periods longer than one- year is called. |
Secular trend
Seasonal variation
Cyclical variation
Irregular variation
|
7 |
For a least squares linear trend Y = a + bX |
ΣY = ΣY
ΣY = 0
ΣY > ΣY
None of them
|
8 |
For a least squares line trend Y = a + bx, the b is the: |
Intercept
Slope
Variable
Trend
|
9 |
In a straight line equation Y = a + bX; a is the: |
X - intercept
Slope
Y- intercept
None of them
|
10 |
The systematic components of time series which follow regular pattern of variations are called: |
Noise
Signal
Additive model
Multiplicative model
|
11 |
Increase the number of patients in the hospital due to heel stock is: |
Seasonal trend
Secular trend
Cyclical movements
Irregular variation
|
12 |
In time series seasonal variations can occur within a period of: |
Nine years
Four Years
Three years
One year
|
13 |
The unsystematic sequence which follows irregular pattern of variations is called: |
Noise
Signal
Linear
Non-linear
|
14 |
In the measurement of secular trend the moving averages: |
Give the trend in a straight line
Measure the seasonal variations
Smooth out a time series
None of these
|
15 |
The secular trend is measured by the method of semi-averages when: |
Time series contains yearly value
Trend is linear
Time series contains odd number of values
None of them
|
16 |
The basic components of a time series are: |
2
3
4
5
|
17 |
The graph of time series is called: |
Histogram
Historigram
Straight line
Ogive
