-*The [[Splitsal_assumptions#Standard Deviation(SD)|standard deviation]] defines the variation of weights either side of the average figure. Users can play with the entry for standard deviation until the range of weights displayed appears to represent 95% of the group under consideration. In figure 1 the indicated range (for 95% of the group) is 441kg to 559kg. Changing the value for standard deviation will change this range.

 *For the data entered so far, the program has calculated that 16% of the total group will be above the cut-off weight of 530kg at three and a half years old. This 16% of the group (the leads) have an average weight of 548kg. The other 84% (the tails) have an average weight of 491kg. If they are expected to gain another 120kg over the next year this would give them an average turnoff weight at four and a half years old of about 611kg.

 A common situation in extensive herds is that the sale of stock from one age cohort can be spread over two separate time periods up to one year apart, with the first draft of steers or heifers going when they reach the target weight and the second a year or season later, e.g. some of the bullocks may go at three and a half years, and the balance at four and a half. Producers will usually have some idea, based on experience, of what proportion they expect to get off at the earlier weight and the average turnoff weights at each age.
