An account executive has just designed a Monte Carlo model to estimate the costs of a particular type of project. Validating the model could include all except:
Answer(s): D
The Monte Carlo technique is used in a simulation to generate the individual values for a random value. An essential step in the simulation procedure is to validate the mathematical model used. This process involves not only searching for errors but also verifying the assumptions. It also should provide some assurance that the results of the experiment will be realistic. This assurance is often obtained using historical data. If the model gives results equivalent to what actually happened, the model is historically valid. There is still some risk, however, that changes could make the model invalid for the future. The model should not be implemented until this validation process is complete.
A large fishing operation has information on the interval, time, and probabilities of shrimp schools staying beneath their fishing boats. In order to use this information to predict when and where to send their boats, which of the following techniques should be used?
Answer(s): A
Simulation Monte Carlo simulation) is a technique for experimenting with logical/mathematical models using a computer. Despite the power of mathematics, many problems cannot be solved by known analytical methods because of the behavior of the variables and the complexity of their interactions. However, the performance of a quantitative model under uncertainty may be investigated by randomly selecting values for each variable in the model based on its probability distribution) and then calculating the value of the solution. If this process is performed many times, the distribution of results from the model will be obtained.
Which of the following is not true about simu-lation models?
Simulation is a technique for experimenting with logical/mathematical models using a computer. The simulation procedure has five steps: define the objectives, formulate the model, validate the model, design the experiment, and conduct the simulation and evaluate the results. A simulation uses the laws of probability to generate values for random variables.Thus, simulation models are probabilistic, not deterministic.
A cost-volume-profit model developed in a dynamic environment determined that the estimated parameters used may vary between limits. Subsequent testing of the model with respect to all possible values of the estimated parameters is termed:
After a problem has been formulated into any mathematical model, it may be subjected to sensitivity analysis. Sensitivity analysis is a method for studying the effects of changes in one or more variables on the results of a decision model.
An investment company is attempting to allocate its available funds between two investment alternatives, stocks and bonds, which differ in terms of expected return and risk. The company would like to minimize its risk while earning an expected return of at least 10% and investing no more than 70% in either of the investment alternatives. An appropriate technique for allocating its funds between stocks and bonds is:
Linear programming is a mathematical technique for planning resource allocation that optimizes a given objective function that is subject to certain constraints. In this case, the maximum investment is constrained by a 70% limit on either investment choice.

Thank you for providing these questions. It helped me a lot with passing my exam.
my first attempt
very explainable
i think answer of q 462 is variance analysis
hi i need see questions
best study material for exam
very interesting repository
american history 1
good level of questions
i need this dump kindly upload it
do we need c# coding to be az204 certified
excellent topics covered
are these really financial cloud questions and answers, seems these are basic admin question and answers
are these comments real
please upload the latest dumps
a company runs its workloads on premises. the company wants to forecast the cost of running a large application on aws. which aws service or tool can the company use to obtain this information? pricing calculator ... the aws pricing calculator is primarily used for estimating future costs
looks interesting
thanks! that’s amazing
the exam dumps are helping me get a solid foundation on the practical techniques and practices needed to be successful in the auditing world.
q 14 should be dmz sever1 and notepad.exe why does note pad have a 443 connection
question # 108, correct answers are business growth and risk reduction.
are these valid chfi questions
question: 162 should be dlp (b)
good exam questions
I have to say this is really close to real exam. Passed my exam with this.
good analytics question
this looks accurate
question 46, the answer should be data "virtualization" (not visualization).
its useful.
Pass this exam 3 days ago. The PDF version and the Xengine App is quite useful.
informative for me.
question 134s answer shoule be "dlp"
in 72 the answer must be [sys_user_has_role] table.
