Data Analytics Practice With Tableau

(I) Getting Tableau Program; Download/Upload Real Business Data
a) Open the website of the real business that we are working with at: http://www.citibikenyc.com/system-data
b) View and make a note for the default system data properties the website provided
c) Download the needed data of 201501-citibike-tripdata.csv from Canvas-Assignment–
Data Analytics Exercise with Tableau to a preferred folder at your local computer
d) Open Landing Page: https://sbus-vdi.montclair.edu ; select: SBUS_Lab – Go through Chrome- User Authentication with your MSU-NetID, then, Tableau app should be available
e) Upload the needed data from your local computer to Document folder at the Virtual desktop (Follow the guided directions attached below)
f) Verify if the data now can be found at the Document folder from the Virtual Lab computer
g) From Start menu, type Tableau, then you are ready to run the program

(II) Analyze the following 6 questions with Tableau worksheets respectively:
1. Create a Calculated Field named ‘Males-Females’ as a new dimension on your worksheet.  (Noted: you need to filter ‘Null’ when use Gender to measure the following steps)
2. Show trips taken by males versus females during the month as a horizontal-bar table.
3. Show total hours and minutes traveled by males versus females during the month as a stacked-bar table. Customize with your preferred colors for male and female
4. Create a micro-viewable chart of total trips for the system by hour of each day over January 2015.
5. Create an animated and visualized view with hourly departures during the month in New York area. It now reflects any number of departures from each station at each time point.
6. Based on the results of Question-4 or Question-5, with open resources, analyze the reasons why there were low biking activities on Jan. 27 th, 2015? Provide your brief answers with the related web-link on a fresh worksheet

Exercise

The Forest Green Company is considering purchasing additional equipment that would have an initial cost of $400,000. They estimate it would add $220,000 to pre-tax revenues and variable operating expense (before taking account of depreciation) per year of 40%, for the first 4 years. In Year 5, they will cease production, and therefore will have no additional revenues or ongoing operating costs, but will incur special shutdown costs of $42,000 (aside from depreciation).

The packaging machine will be depreciated on a straight-line basis, over 5 years, and will have no salvage value (ignore the MACRS depreciation methodology for this problem.)

Assuming a 21% marginal tax rate, and a 7% WACC, calculate the NPV of this investment.  Do you recommend this project? Why?

Views of mental illness: Discuss the historical beliefs about origins of mental illness and how theories throughout time have affected the metamorphosis of abnormal psychology.

Theoretical foundations: Identify and explain at least two of the theoretical perspectives associated with abnormal psychology. These are specific psychological theories/theoretical perspectives on mental illness.

The DSM-5-TR/DSM-5: Discuss your understanding for the use of the DSM-5-TR/DSM-5, and how it has changed the process for diagnosis.

Reflecting on the Szasz (1960) and Ausubel (1961) perspectives: Based on the controversial viewpoints of Szasz (1960) and Ausubel (1961), as well as the other required resource information, evaluate your own beliefs about mental illness. Is it real? Is it common or uncommon? Is creativity supported by behaviors resembling mental illness? Support your viewpoints using citations from both of the assigned articles: Ausubel’s (1961) Personality disorder is disease and Szasz’s The myth of mental illness.

The role of culture in views on mental illness: Elaborate on why culture should be considered, associated with behaviors, and what might be considered normal versus abnormal.

Assignment – pad334

Objective of the assignment: This assignment helps the student achieve one of the main objectives of the article: to identify the types of information systems in modern organizations, to know how they operate, to understand the appropriate level of management for their implementation and application, and finally to assess the relevance of them based on the nature of the business processes to be supported by one of these types of systems.

Instructions:  The student is expected to respond adequately and clearly to the question below by submitting a report of at least one and not more than two pages (font 12) and electronically, Ward file) via his Blackboard account, write the name of the file as follows: “Administrative Information Systems (MIS) 2023, first name, last name” with the applicant’s name written. Upload the file on the blackboard in the duty box. The system will search to match the answer to other sources.

Question: Discuss and explain the four main types of systems that serve the different administrative levels with explain the administrative level of each system.

  • The histogram of the distribution is approximately normal.

HINT: Use the following session commands:

> xbar <- rep(0,1000)

> for(i in 1:1000){xbar[i]=mean(rexp(33, 3))}

> hist(xbar, prob = TRUE)

  • Its expected value is .

HINT: Use

        > mean(xbar)

What is the expected value of an exponential distribution?

  • Its variance is .

HINT: Use

        > sd(xbar)
