When one thinks of the normal distribution, the first thing that comes to mind is the bell curve and grades. While this is one example of a normal curve that is widely recognized, it is not the only one. Come up with a unique normal distribution from literature that your classmates have not posted about already. Explain your normal curve with items such as the mean and standard deviation. What do the areas in the intervals µ - ? to µ + ?, µ - 2? to µ + 2? and µ - 3? to µ + 3? represent as far as areas under the normal curve? With the mean and standard deviation, calculate what the actual intervals are for your normal curve. Please include any citations regarding where you obtained the data for your curve.

The bank manager's first question is regarding revenue and your process for handling accounts receivables and uncollectible accounts. The bank knows that it is common in your line of business to collect deposits up front for an event but that some events are cancelled or the event is held as planned, but payment is not received in full.
In a 1-2 page memo, address the concerns of the bank manager. Be specific regarding the types of methods that are available for accounting for receivables such as those covered in Chapter 9. Discuss potential ways you could encourage timely payment and/or what your credit terms will be. Give examples where appropriate. Be sure to follow APA format and include in-text citations as well as a reference page following your memo.
