8 10 points Book Priet References Problem 13-20 Probability analysis with a normal curve distribution [LO13-4] When returns from a project can be assumed to be normally distributed, such as those shown in Figure 13-6 (represented by a symmetrical, bell-shaped curve), the areas under the curve can be determined from statistical tables based on standard deviations. For example, 68.26 percent of the distribution will fall within one standard deviation of the expected value ( D=10) Similarly, 95.44 percent will fall within two standard deviations (D = 20), and so on. An abbreviated table of areas under the normal curve is shown next.
