So Central Limit Theorem problems all come from http://www.stat.ucla.edu/~nchristo/statistics100A/stat100a_clt.pdf
The given solution uses z = 2.575 which is quite different from its actual value.
>>> from scipy.stats import *
>>> norm.ppf(0.995)
2.5758293035489004
Since this value will be multiplied by 10000, this difference is not trivial! I got more than two pages worth of WA before got accepted.
