We continue with the Concrete dataset. Concrete is a central product for most modern constructions and is used in homes, roads, and commercial structures and there are many other building applications. Frequently, there is an issue of strength (compressive strength) which is measured in megapascals (MPa). Several attributes contribute to the strength of concrete.
1. Download the data file https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jVV26-UbjWhGEOi9Aww81JmSj3kM3JY6lQY662VK-pg/edit?usp=sharing
2. Run a multiple regression predicting the strength of the concrete based on Cement, Blast Furnace Slag, Fly Ash, Water, Superplasticizer, Course Aggregate, Fine Aggregate, and Age.
3. Then move forward in the assignment answering the questions that follow.
How much correlation is there between the variables?
How much of the variability in strength is explained by the predictors?
The deviation between the R2 and R2adj is severe? True or False
Which of the predictor variables are significant at the 0.05 level?
At the 0.05 level of significance, what is the conclusion about the overall model hypothesis test?

You are hired as a junior manager at a state-owned institution at the beginning of 2021 with a salary of $100,000. You must choose between two retirement plans in the first week of your employment. This choice cannot be reversed. The two alternatives are:
You assume that salaries will rise by 3% a year, the interest rate and return of retirement assets will roughly match the market index return of 8%, you will retire after 35 years (end of 2055), and receive retirement payment for the subsequent 25 years (between the end of 2055 and the end of 2080).

Share buybacks are not ethically wrong.
Because if the company has sufficient retained
earnings and cash, but no adequate opportunities to invest, share
buybacks are a good way to reward shareholder. Also, the
information contained in share buybacks will be processed by the
market, and the shares will be priced correctly after taking into
consideration all the information, including the share
buybacks.
Companies don't have any obligations to use the money
to grow the company, pay employees more etc instead of doing
buybacks. The performance of the company is majorly dependent on
the vision of the owners and the management and if the company is
creating huge cash inflows and they lack proper vision on what to
do with the money, they spend it on buy back and paying dividend in
an expectation that investors will be satisfied.
Some would argue that the capitalist system rewards shareholders only at the expense of others, like employees. The same people might say that in doing so, the company contributes to the growing gap between rich and poor.
Does this contribute to the growing gap between rich and poor, and, by extension, is it the obligation of a public company to assist in narrowing this gap?

Part 2
Students sometime report negative experiences when working with teams, particularly if they have experienced a social-loafer in the group. Some argue that social loafing is less prevalent in the workplace because the rewards and sanctions are more closely aligned to individual performance. An interesting argument for individuals' willingness to work and contribute in a group has been posed by Fishbach and colleagues. They argue that identification with others in the group and the group goal is fundamental to an individual's choice to opt into and participate effectively within the group.
3. How important do you think group identification really is to an individual's motivation to work on a task? Do you think this could differ between individuals? What other factors would be relevant?
4. Can you identify an alignment between the argument posed by Fishbach and colleagues to other models or theories of motivation posed throughout this chapter?
5. What strategies could you use to improve group identification, goal commitment and member motivation when working in a group?
