CFA Practice Question
Your company is considering starting a new production division. In the simulation model one probabilistic variable is future sales. The number of simulations will be largest if the future sales amount is assumed to:
A. be normally distributed with a mean of 50k and a standard deviation of 10,000.
B. have a uniform distribution.
C. be based on historical sales distributions of competitors in the industry.
Explanation: Future sales amounts based on the historical sales distributions of competitors will indicate the greatest diversity in future sales and thus the number of required simulations will be the largest.
