I have searched the percentage of each question, but I want to know why there are differences?

a. What's the percentage of loans out of total assets for Bank of America and Central Bank? What explains such a significant difference?

BOA:40.2%, Central Bank:67%.

b. What's the percentage of total deposits out of total liabilities (including capital) for Bank of America and Central Bank? Again, why do you think there is a significant difference?

BOA:66.1%, Central Bank:89%.

100 moles of ethane (C₂H₆) are burned with 50% excess air. The percentage conversion of the ethane is 90%; of the ethane burned, 25% reacts to form CO and the balance reacts to form CO₂. Calculate the molar composition of the stack gas on a dry basis and the mole ratio of water to dry stack gas.

The Centers for Disease Control reported the percentage of people 18 years of age and older who smoke (CDC website, December 14, 2014). Suppose that a study designed to collect new data on smokers and nonsmokers uses a preliminary estimate of the proportion who smoke of .31. a. How large a sample should be taken to estimate the proportion of smokers in the population with a margin of error of .02 (rounded up to the next whole number)? Use 95% confidence. 637 b. Assume that the study uses your sample size recommendation in part (a) and finds 520 smokers. What is the point estimate of the proportion of smokers in the population (to 4 decimals)? .31 c. What is the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of smokers in the population (to 4 decimals)?

Exercise 1. Defense and wins. The data in the table below shows the wining percentage and the yards per game allowed in the 2014-15 season for a random sampling of teams. At α = 0.05, can you support the claim that there is a correlation between the winning percentage and the yards allowed?

Use the percentage method to compute the federal income taxes to withhold from the wages or salaries of each employee. If an amount is zero, enter "0". If required, round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.

Since a normal distribution is taken into account, what percentage of the distribution values will fall in the range of a standard deviation below and above the mean?
A -) %68
B -) %50
C -) %99.7
D -) %99.5

Explain the benefits of using health care expenditures as a percentage of a nation’s gross domestic product over per capita health care expenditures in comparing health care spending across nations.

For a sample of 25 monthly observations, a financial analyst wants to regress the percentage rate of return (Y) of the common stock of a corporation on the percentage rate of return ( X) of standard and Poor’s 500 Index. The following information is available: Σ??=??.????=? , Σ??=??.????=? , Σ???=???.????=? ,Σ???=???.????=? , Σ????=???.????=? a. Compute the sample correlation coefficient and interpret your answer. ( 3 marks) b. Test to determine the significance of the linear relationship between X and Y. ( 4 marks) c. Estimate the linear regression of Y on X, and interpret your results. Hence write the regression line and estimate Y when X is 8%.

The following data show the percentage of U.S. adults who were users of tobacco for a recent 11-year period

1. Use simple linear regression analysis to find the parameters for the line that minimizes MSE for this time series. Do not round your interim computations and round your final answers to three decimal places.

y-intercept, b₀ =

Slope, b₁ =

MSE =

2. One of OSH’s goals is to cut the percentage of U.S. adults who were users of tobacco to 12% or less within nine years of the last year of these data. Does your regression model suggest that OSH is on target to meet this goal?

3. Estimate the number of years that must pass after these data have been collected before OSH will achieve this goal. Round your answer to the nearest whole number in years.
