Spearman rho (rs) Computation

rs = 1 - (6(12)/12³ -12

= 1 - (72/1728-12)

= 1 - (72/1716)

= 1 - 0.041958041

rs = 0.958042 or 0.96

Ans. The Spearman rho (rs) value is 0.958042 or 0.96 (rs =0.96)

The Spearman rho value obtained is 0.96 which denotes "very high relationship". Hence, the relationship
between capital and profit is very high.
