LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.SELL.D.Consistency: 91.82 and 84.12, difference 7.7.
CHF: TT buying rate should be less than the selling rate
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.BUY.D: buying rate 91.8200 vs selling rate 84.1200 this day (buying should be < selling). SELL is the outlier: 84.12 vs its own neighbouring days 92.86-93.22/93.96-94.09 (BUY 91.82 is in line with its neighbours). Source data-entry error on the selling side.
- Error in the source6 Oct 2015
This series reads 147.3; the same figure from the other source reads 141.3. Compared with
LK.EXT.FX.CHF.BUY.D.Two agencies: 147.26 and 141.26, difference 6.
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.BUY.D: IF_Buying_Selling file vs the Data Library
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.BUY.D: value 147.2600 vs Data Library 141.2600. Whole-day anomaly in the source file: every daily-TT currency (buy and sell) jumps on this one day while every neighbouring day matches the Data Library exactly (e.g. USD/BUY 144.53 here vs 138.9x the day before and after, in both the file and the Library) - re-verified series by series. A single bad row in IF_Buying_Selling_Exchange_Rates...xlsx, not a parsing issue.
- Error in the source1 Oct 2018
This series reads 179.2; the same figure from the other source reads 169. Compared with
LK.EXT.FX.CHF.BUY.D.Two agencies: 179.194 and 169.01, difference 10.184.
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.BUY.D: IF_Buying_Selling file vs the Data Library
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.BUY.D: value 179.1943 vs Data Library 169.0100. USD/BUY 180.08 here vs ~167.0 the day before and after). A single bad row in the source file.
- Rounding26 Apr 2018
This series reads 157.1; the same figure from the other source reads 157. Compared with
LK.EXT.FX.CHF.BUY.D.Two agencies: 157.09 and 157.03, difference 0.06.
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.BUY.D: IF_Buying_Selling file vs the Data Library
LK.EXT.FX_DAILY_TT.CHF.BUY.D: value 157.0904 vs Data Library 157.0300. Every currency differs from the Data Library by under 0.2 LKR on this date - the file records 4 decimal places (e.g. USD/BUY 155.5247) where the Library's copy has 2 (155.43); a precision/rounding difference between two CBSL publications of the same TT rate, not an error.
