If you know the population then you dont have to divide by the root of n. On another note I am very pleased this blog is being written. I am currently an industrial engineer student, I want to be an investment banker. Mostafa,

Note that the 3 numbers .1336, .197, and .38 they define as <b>standard error</b>, not standard deviation. :) Thanks for the comments V and Jay. Wow - currencies - haven't dared to dabble there yet! - Lumilog Hi Mostafa,

Thanks for the comments V and Jay. Wow – currencies – haven’t dared to dabble there yet!

I'm also an engineer by trade, investor by addiction. Excellent post, reminds me of my recent past and why I’m looking into being a CFA. I’m also an engineer by trade, investor by addiction.

In Reading 11: Hypothesis testing. In Example Three, the book computed the Z-test like this: Z = (Mean Value - Hypothesized mean value) / sample standard deviation. shouldn't it be Z = (Mean Value - Hypothesized mean Value)/ (sample standard deviation/ the root of n ). thanx man please reply hey man I was wondering if you would kindly help me with something in the first volume.
