Section 2.4 Financial Literacy Objective 1 – Understand PE Ratios and Stock Quotes Objective 2 – Understand Inflation and the CPI Objective 3 – Compute Money Ratios for Retirement Objective 1 – Understand PE Ratios and Stock Quotes Key Terms PE ratio Stock Dividends Share Price per share Retirement plan Quarter Earnings Profit Earnings per share Stock quote Summary A share of stock in a company refers to a part ownership in the company. You can thus become part owner of any publicly traded company by buying shares using a brokerage account like TD Ameritrade or e-trade. On October 22, 2018 you could have bought one share of Apple Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. 95 Incorporated for $220.65 at the close of the trading day (4:00 PM EST), or one share of Amazon for $1,789.30. Why the big difference in price? There are several reasons: 1. Every company has a different number of shares for purchase: 487.7 million shares of Amazon and 4.8 billion shares of Apple.

Discussion Board 5: Frequency Distributions and Histograms

You will be using the same data values as you used in discussion board 4. The purpose of this assignment is to familiarize you with Excel or similar software to create graphs and tables. Part 1: Create a frequency distribution table, histogram and descriptive data table 1. Using 5 to 10 class intervals, organize the data as a frequency distribution in a table. The intervals of the frequency distribution should be rounded to match the data. Call this Table 1 and give the table an appropriate and descriptive title (example: Frequency Distribution of Temperatures with 6 Intervals). 2. Use Excel (or similar software) to construct a frequency histogram to illustrate the data. Label the axes of the graph properly, including units. Call this Graph 1: Corresponding Histogram. 3. Find the mean, median, modal class, standard deviation, and variance for this frequency distribution. Round statistics to one more decimal place than the data (for example, if the data values are integers,
