Features: This book is one of the core textbooks for finance and economics majors in higher education institutions. The book consists of seven chapters, with the first three chapters discussing probability theory, including events and probabilities, random variables and distributions, and digital characteristics and limit theorems. The last four chapters cover mathematical statistics, including sampling distributions, statistical estimation, hypothesis testing, and regression analysis, among others. Each chapter provides a substantial number of typical examples and is accompanied by a sufficient number of exercises, with answers provided. The book aims to cultivate students' abilities to analyze and solve problems. In the introduction of concepts, selection of content, and pairing of examples, it strives to clarify their intuitive background, establish or summarize their probability models, and emphasize connections with practical problems in economic management. The book is designed to be clear in structure and thorough in explanation, with some novel approaches to the discussion and handling of certain problems.
