Part C: Regression and Correlation Analysis

Use the dependent variable (labeled Y) and the independent variables (labeled X1, X2, and X3) in the data file. Use Excel to perform the regression and correlation analysis to answer the following.

Generate a scatterplot for the specified dependent variable (Y) and the X1 independent variable, including the graph of the "best fit" line. Interpret.

Determine the equation of the "best fit" line, which describes the relationship between the dependent variable and the selected independent variable.

Determine the coefficient of correlation. Interpret.

Determine the coefficient of determination. Interpret.

Test the utility of this regression model. Interpret results, including the p-value.

Based on the findings in Steps 1-5, analyze the ability of the independent variable to predict the designated dependent variable.

Compute the confidence interval for β1 (the population slope) using a 95% confidence level. Interpret this interval.

Using an interval, estimate the average for the dependent variable for a selected value of the independent variable. Interpret this interval.

Using an interval, predict the particular value of the dependent variable for a selected value of the independent variable. Interpret this interval.

What can be said about the value of the dependent variable for values of the independent variable that are outside the range of the sample values? Explain.

In an attempt to improve the model, use a multiple regression model to predict the dependent variable .Y, based on all of the independent variables. X1, X2, and X3.

Using Excel, run the multiple regression analysis using the designated dependent and three independent variables. State the equation for this multiple regression model.

Perform the Global Test for Utility (F-Test). Explain the conclusion.

Perform the t-test on each independent variable. Explain the conclusions and clearly state how the analysis should proceed. In particular, which independent variables should be kept and which should be discarded. If any independent variables are to be discarded, re-run the multiple regression, including only the significant independent variables, and summarize results with discussion of analysis.

Is this multiple regression model better than the linear model generated in parts 1-10? Explain. Please use the actual data from below in the analysis.

Mr. Gold is in the widget business. He currently sells 1.3 million widgets a year at...

Mr. Gold is in the widget business. He currently sells 1.3 million widgets a year at $7 each. His variable cost to produce the widgets is $5 per unit, and he has $1,640,000 in fixed costs. His sales-to-assets ratio is seven times, and 40 percent of his assets are financed with 9 percent debt, with the balance financed by common stock at $10 par value per share. The tax rate is 35 percent.
  
His brother-in-law, Mr. Silverman, says he is doing it all wrong. By reducing his price to $6.00 a widget, he could increase his volume of units sold by 60 percent. Fixed costs would remain constant, and variable costs would remain $5 per unit. His sales-to-assets ratio would be 10.0 times. Furthermore, he could increase his debt-to-assets ratio to 50 percent, with the balance in common stock. It is assumed that the interest rate would go up by 1 percent and the price of stock would remain constant.
A. Compute earnings per share under the gold plan

B. Compute earnings per share under the silverman plan
