PART 1
The prices of goods sold in shops vary
from one shop to
another.Shoppers tend to buy goods which are
not only reasonably priced but also give value
for their money.
You are required to carry out a survey on four
different items based on the following
categories i.e. food, detergent and
stationery.The survey should be done in three
different shops.

(b) Record the items and their prices systematically
as in Table 1.Since items maybe differently packed,be
sure to use consistent measurements for each item
selected so that comparison can be done easily and
accurately.

PART 3
As a committee member for the carnival, you are
required to prepare an estimated budget to organize
this year’s carnival. The committee has to take into the
consideration the increase in expenditure from the
previous year due to inflation. The price of food,
transportation and tents has increased by 15%. The cost
of games, prizes and decorations remains the same,
whereas the cost of miscellaneous items has increase
by 30%.
QUESTION
Answer:

budget of the carnival in the year 2010 based on the
year 2009. Comment on your answer.

Limitations of the
AQI
Most air contaminants do not have an associated AQI. Many
countries
monitor ground-level ozone, particulates, sulphur
dioxide, carbon
monoxide and nitrogen dioxide and calculate air quality
indices for
these pollutants.
Causes of Poor Air
Quality
The AQI can worsen (go up) due to lack of dilution of air
emissions
by fresh air. Stagnant air, often
caused by
an anticyclone or temperature inversion, or other lack of
winds lets air
pollution remain in a local area.
Indices by location
South Korea
The Ministry of Environment of South Korea uses the
Comprehensice
Air-quality Index (CAI) to describe the ambient air quality
based on
health risk of air pollution. The index aims to help the
public easily
understand air quality level and protect the health of
people from air pollution. - The CAI has values of 0 through
500, which are divided into six categories. The higher the
CAI value, the greater the level of
air pollution. - Of values of the five air pollutants, the
highest is the CAI value.
Malaysia
The air quality in Malaysia is reported as the API or Air
Pollution
Index. Four of the index's pollutant components (i.e.,
carbon
monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide) are
reported
in PM10 particulate matter is reported in
g/m³.
Unlike the American AQI, the index number can exceed
500. Above
500, a state of emergency is declared in the reporting
area. Usually,
this means that non-essential government services are
suspended, and
all ports in the affected area closed. There may also be a
prohibition
on private sector commercial and industrial activities in the
reporting
area excluding the food sector.
STOCK MARKET INDEX
A comparison of tree major U.S. stock indices: the
NASDAQ Composite, Dow Jones Industrial Average,
andS&P 500. All three have the same height at March
2007. Notice the large dot com spike on the NASDAQ,
a result of the large number of tech. companies on that
index.
