Business Mathematics and Statistics is specially designed to serve as an undergraduate textbook for B Com (General and Honours) students of the University of Calcutta (CU). This book seeks to provide the students with a clear understanding of various concepts.

The book is divided into two modules. The first module covers topics on mathematics such as permutations and combinations, theory of sets, logarithms, binomial theorem, compound interest, and annuities. The second module covers more advanced statistical concepts such as measures of dispersion, moments, skewness and kurtosis, correlation and regression, index numbers, time series analysis, and probability theory.

Written in simple language with a clear presentation of concepts and supported by numerous solved examples, the book makes the subject easy for students to understand and master.
