CMA Intermediate · Financial Management and Business Data Analytics · Data Presentation: Visualisation and Graphical Presentation
In a well-designed statistical table of a company's expenses, which element gives the unit of measurement, such as 'Rs in lakhs', and any note about the source of data?
The headnote and footnote carry the unit of measurement and source or exception notes. The stub holds row labels, the caption holds column headings, and the body holds the data, so only headnote and footnote serve this explanatory purpose.
- ATitle and headnote/footnoteCorrect
- BStub only
- CBody only
- DCaption only
Explanation
The headnote states the unit of measurement and footnotes give source or exceptions. The stub lists row labels, the caption gives column headings, and the body holds the figures; none of these primarily carries units or source notes.
