If the measures are computed
for data from a sample,
they are called sample statistics.
If the measures are computed
for data from a population,
they are called population parameters.
A sample statistic is referred to
as the point estimator of the
corresponding population parameter.

Mean




Perhaps the most important measure of location is
the mean.
The mean provides a measure of central location.
The mean of a data set is the average of all the data
values.
The sample mean x is the point estimator of the
population mean m.

Median
 The median of a data set is the value in the middle
when the data items are arranged in ascending order.
 Whenever a data set has extreme values, the median
is the preferred measure of central location.
 The median is the measure of location most often
reported for annual income and property value data.
 A few extremely large incomes or property values
can inflate the mean.

Slide 12
Trimmed Mean
 Another measure, sometimes used when extreme
values are present, is the trimmed mean.
 It is obtained by deleting a percentage of the
smallest and largest values from a data set and then
computing the mean of the remaining values.
 For example, the 5% trimmed mean is obtained by
removing the smallest 5% and the largest 5% of the
data values and then computing the mean of the
remaining values.

Slide 13
Mode
 The mode of a data set is the value that occurs with
greatest frequency.
 The greatest frequency can occur at two or more
different values.
 If the data have exactly two modes, the data are
bimodal.
 If the data have more than two modes, the data are
multimodal.
 Caution: If the data are bimodal or multimodal,
Excel’s MODE function will incorrectly identify a
single mode.

Slide 15
Percentiles
 A percentile provides information about how the
data are spread over the interval from the smallest
value to the largest value.
 Admission test scores for colleges and universities
are frequently reported in terms of percentiles.

The pth percentile of a data set is a value such that at
least p percent of the items take on this value or less
and at least (100 - p) percent of the items take on this
value or more.

Slide 16
Percentiles
Arrange the data in ascending order.
Compute index i, the position of the pth percentile.
i = (p/100)n
If i is not an integer, round up. The pth percentile
is the value in the ith position.
If i is an integer, the pth percentile is the average
of the values in positions i and i+1.

Slide 17
80th Percentile
 Example: Apartment Rents
i = (p/100)n = (80/100)70 = 56
Averaging the 56th and 57th data values:

Slide 21
Measures of Variability
 It is often desirable to consider measures of variability
(dispersion), as well as measures of location.
 For example, in choosing supplier A or supplier B we
might consider not only the average delivery time for
each, but also the variability in delivery time for each.

Measures of Variability
 Range
 Interquartile Range
 Variance
 Standard Deviation
 Coefficient of Variation

Slide 23
Range
 The range of a data set is the difference between the
largest and smallest data values.
 It is the simplest measure of variability.
 It is very sensitive to the smallest and largest data
values.

Slide 25
Interquartile Range
 The interquartile range of a data set is the difference
between the third quartile and the first quartile.
 It is the range for the middle 50% of the data.
 It overcomes the sensitivity to extreme data values.

Interquartile Range
 Example: Apartment Rents

Slide 27
Variance
The variance is a measure of variability that utilizes
all the data.
It is based on the difference between the value of
each observation (xi) and the mean ( x for a sample,
m for a population).
The variance is useful in comparing the variability
of two or more variables.

Slide 28
Variance
The variance is the average of the squared
differences between each data value and the mean.
The variance is computed as follows:
2  ( xi  x )
s 
n 1
for a
sample
2
 ( xi  m ) 2
 
N
2
for a
population

Slide 29
Standard Deviation
The standard deviation of a data set is the positive
square root of the variance.
It is measured in the same units as the data, making
it more easily interpreted than the variance.

Coefficient of Variation
The coefficient of variation indicates how large the
standard deviation is in relation to the mean.
The coefficient of variation is computed as follows:
