摘要:
SummarySeveral years ago a paper appeared (Downton and Holder, 1972) in which the authors use the notion of “gain ratio” (introduced in Joseph, 1933) in connection with casino games. For a gambler with accumulated gainSn, the probabilityp(Sn>0) is considered as a function of the “gain ratio”. Fornfixed, the authors derive certain monotonicity properties ofp(Sn>0) and infer the superiority of some betting strategies over others. In that paper, the authors assume that the player has large initial capital and hence thatp(Sn>0) is independent of the player's initial capital. Here, we considerp(Sn>0) and ruin probability as functions of the “gain ratio” and the player's initial capital, and our results suggest betting strategies different from those in Downton and Holder's paper; we also sharpen their results by using an alternate method of approximatingp(Sn>0).

摘要:
SummaryHow should one update one's belief in the light of someone else's opinion? It is shown that, if one follows the prescription of Bayes' theorem in the manner suggested by Morris (1974) and Lindley, Tversky and Brown (1979), a counter‐intuitive result is obtained. A resolution of this difficulty is proposed.

摘要:
SummaryIn this paper we discuss sampling inspection plans by variables to control the percentage of non‐conforming items passing inspection in a continuous sequence of batches. After investigating the matching of plans in existing standards, methods for designing single sampling plans by variables have been given. The resulting plans have OC‐curves as close as is practicable to the OC‐curves of the equivalent sampling plans by attributes. We proceed to develop a simple method for designing double sampling plans by variables with OC‐curves matching the OC‐curves of the equivalent single sampling plans and such that theASN‐curves attain fixed upper bounds at theAQL.

摘要:
SummaryThis paper proposes a solution to the problem of calculating price index numbers for seasonal commodities. In essence the proposed method is a translation into the time‐domain of Summers (1973) solution to the incomplete data problem in the context of international price comparisons. Using a real‐life example the stability aspects of the method are examined.
