A data audit is a critical activity that must be done at the beginning of any analytics project when you are working with an existing workbook or are given a dataset from another person. The purpose of this exercise is to conduct a data audit on a worksheet that contains sales data for a hypothetical apparel retailer.

The data shown in the file named Chapter 1 DA Exercise 2 contains data that was provided to you by a coworker. The Excel file should contain sales data for two years by month. You intend to use this data to evaluate the company’s sales trend by season. In addition, you will need to analyze the average price per month to determine if there are months where customers are spending more money for each item purchased. The data should contain sales in units and dollars. For any given month, the sales in units multiplied by the average price should equal the sales in dollars. Open the file named Chapter 1 DA Exercise 2. Audit the data in the Sheet1 worksheet. Record any problems you find in the dataset in the AnswerSheet worksheet. Note that there are more rows to document problems in the dataset than are needed.

Pitino acquired 90 percent of Brey's outstanding shares on January 1, 2016, in exchange for $486,000 in cash. The subsidiary's stockholders' equity accounts totaled $470,000 and the noncontrolling interest had a fair value of $54,000 on that day. However, a building (with a ten-year remaining life) in Brey's accounting records was undervalued by $45,000. Pitino assigned the rest of the excess fair value over book value to Brey's patented technology (four-year remaining life).

Brey reported net income from its own operations of $80,000 in 2016 and $96,000 in 2017. Brey declared dividends of $27,000 in 2016 and $31,000 in 2017.

Year Cost to Brey Transfer Price to Pitino Inventory Remaining at Year-End (at transfer price)
2016 $ 85,000 $ 195,000 $ 41,000
2017 118,250 215,000 53,000
2018 156,000 240,000 40,000

At December 31, 2018, Pitino owes Brey $32,000 for inventory acquired during the period.
