Popis:	Some corrections are made for the article mentioned above. These errors occured due to the floating errors in the computation of the Bayes risk which involves terms of large magnitude and opposite sign as sample size increases, that resulted in loss of accuracy in fixed precision computational tool such as Fortran language. For accurate numerical calculation, we now use the symbolic math package, Maple, to implement the calculation which can supply numerical answers accurate to any required degree of precision. Based on the new tables, some comments made earlier in Sec. 4 have been changed suitably.
