Market Analysis Research

  

Purpose

MBA Business Plan component


Context

One of the most important elements in a business plan is the market analysis. A market analysis is a qualitative and quantitative assessment of a market. It includes data collection and estimation in reference to the market size and value; characteristics of the intended customer base; in-depth understanding of the competition; barriers to entry and the regulatory environment. An accurate and detailed market analysis allows entrepreneurs to determine whether the market is sufficiently large to build a sustainable, profitable business. In this assignment, you will prepare a portion of the market analysis for your proposed business. You will create a report that can be included as part of your digital portfolio.


Instructions

Write a 525-word report that includes the following sections:

  • S

Interpreting A Factor Analysis

 

Factor analysis is a powerful statistical technique that is frequently used in test construction. When performing factor analysis, researchers look at correlations between test items or variables and, in doing so, seek to discover underlying dimensions. It may be discovered that groups of items measure the same dimension, which may in turn lead to the discovery of subscales. Exploratory factor analysis is used to discover how items group together; confirmatory factor analysis is used to see if the items group together in a way that is consistent with theory or expectation. For this assignment, you interpret an exploratory factor analysis on the provided dataset. Because factor analysis is so important in test construction, the steps on how to perform a factor analysis are presented below. You may wish to work through these steps on your own in SPSS since familiarity with this process may benefit you in the future; however, you are not required to

Confidence Intervals

 The project is broken into two parts.

 

In this Part I, you will pick a topic, complete research and provide a write-up that includes calculations. Round all values to two decimal places when appropriate.

Deliverables

  1. Choose a Topic where you can gather at least 50 pieces of data.

Examples of Topics

  1. The Golden Gate Warriors Points Per Game in 2016 (use the points scored in the first 50 games).
  2. High School Graduation Rates by State (use the graduation rates for all 50 states)
  3. Average Tuition Rates in the US (You have to find the tuition rates of 50 college/universities).
  4. The prices of a hotel room per night in a major city (You have to find the price of the same night of hotels in one city).
  5. Weights of 50 babies at birth.

Write at least a 1-Page Report in a word document with the following requirements

Statististics

  

In this project you are asked to conduct your own research into two variables that interest you. This project will give you an opportunity to apply the skills and techniques you learn in this class and to produce a professional report using appropriate technology. This is a MAJOR, on-going assignment and is worth 15% of your grade; the equivalent of one unit exam grade.

Your projects will be graded in stages (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3) according to the attached rubrics.   

To be successful on your project you must:

Read and follow instructions carefully.

Work according to the timeline provided and submit work on time.

Assignment: Descriptive Statistics
Due Week 7 and worth 140 points

Visit one of the following newspapers websites: , , , or . Select an article that uses statistical data related to a current event, your major, your current field, or your future career goal. The chosen article must have a publication date during this quarter.

The article should use one of the following categories of descriptive statistics: 

  • Measures of Frequency - Counting Rules, Percent, Frequency, Frequency Distributions
  • Measures of Central Tendency - Mean, Median, Mode
  • Measures of Dispersion or Variation - Range, Variance, Standard Deviation
  • Measures of Position - Percentile, Quartiles

Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:

  1. Write a summary of the article.
  2. Explain how the article uses descriptive statistics. 
  3. Explain how the article applies to the real wor

Video Summary

To participate, first listen to the BBC More or Less Episode (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07n8x0c). Then write a 250-300 word summary of the episode.

Your summary should be accessible to your fellow classmates in PSYC 60 and describe how each of the main stories in the episode relate to specific statistical concepts covered in this class, as well as share something you learned or found interesting.

Thoughtful and well written summaries will earn 1% in extra credit toward your final grade, and all summaries will be evaluated by Prof. Fan. There will be no extensions granted, and you are not guaranteed to receive extra credit if you submit a summary.

If you wish your summary to be considered for extra credit, you must submit it via Canvas by 2/7/20 at 5pm. Your summary can be pasted directly into Canvas, or uploaded as a ".txt" file.

Now that we have passed the half-way mark of the class, tell us in at least 250 words what you think about learning math online?

Name at least one thing that you really enjoy about the class (come on, there must be something!) and at least one improvement that could make this class even better. Feel free to editorialize!

Also, this is a good time to make a "keep-quit-start" resolution.

  • What are you doing to help yourself learn in this class that you are going to keep doing because it's working?
  • What are you doing that is hindering you from learning in this class that you are going to quit doing?
  • What do you think will help you improve your learning in this class that you are going to start doing?

ANYONE GOOD In Modulo Mathematics

introduction to Modulo Mathematics

All numbers are integers.

Definition: the modulo operator finds the remainder after the division of one number by another (sometimes called modulus). Given two positive numbers, A (the dividend) and p (the divisor), A modulo p (abbreviated as A mod p) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of A by p. Euclidean division is the process of division of two integers, which produces a quotient and a remainder smaller than the divisor.

A mod p = C, where A, p, and C are integers, p is the divisor, and C is the remainder. So, we can write

A = k*p + C; where is k is the quotient, also an integer. We discard k*p

For example, A=13, p = 3.  If we divide 13 by 3 the remainder is 1 so C =1

13 = 4*3 + 1 we discard 4*3, the remainder is 1.

One of the ways to calculate mod would be to use the calculator as follows:

Divide A by p then discard the fraction. Save the quotient, an integer, say, k. Then calcu
