  2. Throughput accounting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throughput_accounting

    Throughput Accounting, therefore, removes standard cost accounting's reliance on efficiencies in general, and labor efficiency in particular, from management practice. Many cost and financial accountants agree with Goldratt's critique, but they have not agreed on a replacement of their own and there is enormous inertia in the installed base of ...

  3. Standard form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_form

    Standard form may refer to a way of writing very large or very small numbers by comparing the powers of ten. It is also known as Scientific notation. Numbers in standard form are written in this format: a×10 n Where a is a number 1 ≤ a < 10 and n is an integer. ln mathematics and science Canonical form

  4. Standard score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_score

    Comparison of the various grading methods in a normal distribution, including: standard deviations, cumulative percentages, percentile equivalents, z-scores, T-scores. In statistics, the standard score is the number of standard deviations by which the value of a raw score (i.e., an observed value or data point) is above or below the mean value of what is being observed or measured.

  5. Standard addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_addition

    In atomic emission spectroscopy, background signal cannot be resolved by standard addition. Thus, background signal must be subtracted from the unknown and standard intensities prior to extrapolating for the zero signal. [5] As this approach involves varying amount of standards added, it is often referred in the plural form as standard ...

  6. PERT distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PERT_distribution

    The mathematics of the distribution resulted from the authors' desire to make the standard deviation equal to about 1/6 of the range. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The PERT distribution is widely used in risk analysis [ 4 ] to represent the uncertainty of the value of some quantity where one is relying on subjective estimates, because the three parameters ...

  8. Standard solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_solution

    Standard solutions are generally prepared by dissolving a solute of known mass into a solvent to a precise volume, or by diluting a solution of known concentration with more solvent. [1] A standard solution ideally has a high degree of purity and is stable enough that the concentration can be accurately measured after a long shelf time. [2]

  9. Standard deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation

    A large standard deviation indicates that the data points can spread far from the mean and a small standard deviation indicates that they are clustered closely around the mean. For example, each of the three populations {0, 0, 14, 14}, {0, 6, 8, 14} and {6, 6, 8, 8} has a mean of 7. Their standard deviations are 7, 5, and 1, respectively.
