A fintech company has a ML system that identifies transaction frauds that occur in its system. The
model currently has a recall of 99.9%. The fraud rate, as reported by the company in its system is
20 BPS. On a regular day there are close to above 1 million transactions that happens via the
company’s payment system, and for each fraudulent transaction the company losses INR 10 on an
average. The annual savings (INR) brought in by the ML system is:
A time series dataset shows quarterly sales data for a company over 5 years. The company
observes the following characteristics:
● The sales exhibit a linear upward trend of 5 units per quarter.
● A seasonal pattern is present, where sales increase by +20 units in Quater 2 and Quater 4, and
decrease by −15 units in Quater 1 and Quater 3.
● The time series is non-stationary due to the trend.
If the sales in Q1 of the first year were 200, what will be the forecasted sales in Q4 of the 5th year,
assuming no randomness?

**Story: The Final Puzzle of the Cursed Map**
In the heart of an ancient temple, Emma, Liam, Noah, and Sophia uncovered **four fragments** of a
long-lost map, believed to lead to a hidden treasure—the Heart of Eternity. However, the map was
cursed: only **three of the four fragments fit together** to reveal the location of the treasure.
Using their AI assistant, the team converted the fragments into vectors:
The curse demanded that the team identify the **three most aligned fragments** to unlock the
treasure. Using cosine similarity, they must calculate the alignment between every pair of
fragments to decide which one to discard. Time is ticking, and the howls of the jungle grow
louder…
Based on the above data, answer the given subquestions.

You have a binary classifier that classifies a transaction as "fraud" (model says it is fraud),
otherwise we assume it is "not fraud". Assume that:
- 1% of all transactions is fraud
- When an transaction is fraud, the model classifies it as "fraud" 99% of the time
- When an transaction is not fraud, the model classifies it as "not fraud" 99% of the time.
What is the precision of the model? Express your answer as a percentage
