Is a term used to describe the proportion of audit adjustments found in a sample of transactions. E.g: "Error": Subtract Approximate value from Exact value. Ignore any minus sign.
Example: I estimated 260 people, but 325 came.
260 - 325 = -65, ignore the "-" sign, so my error is 65

no
Can the answer of a percent error problem be 300?
Yes, your percent error can be over 100%. This means that somewhere during your experiment you made a big error.
When will use percent difference and percent error?
When Percent Equal 100%
Percent error formula?
Divide the calculated or estimated error by the magnitude of the measurement. Take the absolute value of the result, that is, if it is negative, convert to positive. This would make the percent error = | error / measurement |.

What is a high percent error mean?

What is percent error if you use a value of 3.14 for 3.14?
If you mean percent error of 3.14 versus pi, which is 3.14159..., the error is only 0.05%
Can percent error be negative?
Sometimes you will take the absolute value of the percent error because your estimated number could be less than the theoretical, meaning the calculation is negative. But an absolute value is always positive. A percent error can be left as a negative though, and this would be perfectly acceptable (or even preferred) depending on what you're doing.Answer:In the sciences, a negative percent error indicates a low result. If you have a 0% error, then your observed (lab) result was exactly the same as the theoretical result. A 5% error could mean that your observed result was a little high. A negative percent error is possible; if your observed results were lower than the expected, then you would have a negative percent error. A -5% error could mean that your results were a little low. Having a negative percent error isn't worse than positive percent error -- it could mean the same thing. If you were to have a choice in having a 20% error and a -5% error, the negative percent error is more accurate.
What does it mean if the percent yield is over 100?
