55. 54 Federal Department of Finance FDF Swiss Federal Office of Private Insurance Appendix: Boxplot (from Wikipedia) In descriptive statistics, a boxplot is a convenient way of graphically depicting the five- number summary, which consists of the smallest observation, lower quartile (x.25), median, upper quartile (x.75) and largest observation; in addition, the boxplot indicates which observations, if any, are considered unusual, or outliers. The boxplot was invented in 1977 by American statistician John Tukey. For a data set, one constructs a horizontal box plot in the following manner: Calculate the first quartile (x.25), the median (x.50) and third quartile (x.75) Calculate the interquartile range (IQR) by subtracting the third quartile from the first quartile. (x.75-x.25) Construct a box above the number line bounded on the left by the first quartile (x.25) and on the right by the third quartile (x.75). Indicate where the median lies inside of the box with the presence of a line dividing the box at the median value. Any data observation which lies more than 1.5*IQR lower than the first quartile or 1.5*IQR higher than the third quartile is considered an outlier. Indicate where the smallest value that is not an outlier is by a vertical tic mark or "whisker", and connect the whisker to the box via a horizontal line. Likewise, indicate where the largest value that is not an outlier is by a "whisker", and connect that whisker to the box via another horizontal line.

57. 56 Federal Department of Finance FDF Swiss Federal Office of Private Insurance Appendix: waterfall chart (from Wikipedia) A waterfall chart is a special type of floating-column chart. A typical waterfall chart shows how an initial value is increased and decreased by a series of intermediate values, leading to a final value. An invisible column keeps the increases and decreases linked to the heights of the previous columns.
