LINEAR MODEL-BUILDING Linear (regression) models are used in a variety of business situations for a variety of purposes. One reason for their popularity is that they can be easily understood and implemented. All that is needed is data on two or more variables and a computer

situation. 2) In this case using a simple linear regression method the obtained regression model is, Number of patients = 66.7806+0.9895*Time period. The time period is variable created from the dates. Time period is representing the date starting from 8/1/2014, so time period = 1 represents 8/1/2014, time period = 2 represents 8/2/2014 and so on. As my birthday is on 31st so the predicted number of patients at 1st October using the above regression equation is (note that for Sept has 30 days

for the most appropriate location for potential new stores based on high future earnings and sales. The purpose of the case study was to figure out and suggest a new location for the company from the two chosen sites, A and B, by finding a multiple regression model using the data from 250 stores. Data There were several different types of data used for this analysis. Data set that was given in a file, consisted information of 250 stores on different demographics such as economic status, store size

Determinants of Profit in Various Supermarkets. | | | Submitted by: | Date: | | Abstract: The research statistically determines the profits of supermarkets based on the sales of food items, non-food items and size of supermarket. The regression model was done on both models to determine that in both models, increase in sales and size of stores increases the overall profit. However the model with independent variables sales of food items, sales of non-food items and size of stores is the
