Question 3 (a)
The business objective of the director of planning of Game Ghana is to forecast monthly sales for all new stores, based on the number of profiled customers who live no more than 30 minutes from a Game store. To examine the relationship between the number of profiled customers who live within a fixed radius from a Game store and its monthly sales, data were collected from a sample of 10 stores:
Store
No. of Customers (‘000) Monthly Sales (‘000)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 5 7 2 8 4 3 2 4 5 3 8 12 6 14 8 7 9 10 12 8
(i) Use the least-squares method to compute the regression coefficients ? and ?.
(ii) Write down the estimated equation and predict the monthly sales if there are 9000
customers.
(iii) Determine the coefficient of determination, ? , and explain its meaning in this problem.
(iv)Determine the value of the extent of relationship between annual sales and number of customers, and interpret your result.

?= +0.5?−24=0
where P is the price per bottle and ?= is the quantity demanded. In addition, the economist also
estimated the supply function for product as follows.
4?> − 3? + 4 = 0
where P is the price per bottle and ?> is the quantity supplied. As the consultant of this
company, you are to use this information to:
(i) Determine the equilibrium level of price and quantity
(ii) Represent your answer graphically by sketching the demand and supply curves.
(iii) Determine the welfare of economic agents using integration
(iv)Suppose the government imposes a tax of ¢4 one very bottle sold,determine the new equilibrium price and quantity
(v)How will the consumers and producers share the tax per unit?

Assuming Titan had 70 customers in 2015 and 80 customers in 2016,

  1. calculate the operating income of Titan for 2015 and 2016;

Particulars                                                                   2015                                         2016

Revenue; 800*450;900*430                                   360,000                                 387,000

Direct Material Cost 3200*35;3300*35                112,000                                 115,500

Conversion Cost                                                      1,800,000                               1,650,000

Selling and Customer Service cost                         495,000                                   495,000

Total Cost                                                              2,407,000                                     2,260,500

Profit/Loss                                                            (2,047,000)                                 (1,873,500)

Suppose that during 2016, the overall market for AllPads grew 3%. The decrease in the selling price of the AllPad and increase in market share (that is, sales increases greater than 3%) are the result of Titan’s strategic actions.

  1. Calculate how much of the change in operating income from 2015 to 2016 is due to the industry market size factor, product differentiation, and cost leadership. How does this relate to Titan’s strategy and its success in implementation? Explain.

Researchers identified a number of new undergraduate students who said they suffered from “examination panic” and they felt they were not performing as well as they could on timed examinations. Researchers decided to conduct an experiment and randomly divided the students into three equal groups that would carry out a timed test as part of one of three treatment programs: one to undergo therapy sessions before the test day; the second to receive the tranquilizer just before the test; and the third to receive a placebo (a sugar tablet) just before the test.  When the results were collected, it was found that the distributions of scores were highly irregular, neither normal nor showing homogeneity of variance; therefore a one-way ANOVA was not appropriate.  Using the students data set, conduct a Kruskal-Wallis test. Show all the hypothesis testing steps. Write the results in APA format and include a copy of the SPSS output.

The assumptions for this test are:

1. All the samples are independent and randomly selected.

2. Each sample has at least 5 observations.

3. The k probability distributions are continuous.

4. The data is not normally distributed
