Question 1 1 / 1 pts (Lesson 9.1: Introduction to Output Analysis.) Which of the following problems might best be characterized by a finite-horizon simulation? a. Simulating long-term hurricane patterns b. Simulating a manufacturing cell 24/7/365 Correct! Correct! c. Simulating the operations of a bank from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. d. Simulating the steady-state distribution of a Markov chain (c). [All of the other answers involve long-run, steady-state simulations.] (Lesson 9.1: Introduction to Output Analysis.) Let's run a simulation whose output is a sequence of daily inventory levels for a particular product. Which of the following statements is true? a. The consecutive daily inventory levels are independent. b. The consecutive daily inventory levels are uncorrelated. c. The consecutive daily inventory levels are normally distributed. d. The consecutive daily inventory levels may not be identically distributed. Correct! Correct! Just (d). Consecutive inventory levels are rarely i.i.d. normal Question 3 1 / 1 pts (Lesson 9.2: A Mathematical Interlude.) BONUS: Suppose that is a stationary (steady-state) stochastic process with covariance function , for . We know from class that the variance of the sample mean can be represented as We also know from class that for a simple AR(1) process, we have , Compute for an AR(1) process with and . a. -0.831 b. -0.5 c. 0 [Show More]
