Case Workshop Project

DOCUMENT 1: CASE DOCUMENT

In this document, we need to create a list of the top 15 TATA Group’s companies (https://indiancompanies.in/companies-owned-by-tata-group/) along with their relevant industries or sectors, headquarters, and value proposition. After this step, on another document, we need to make a table (excel sheet) of the balance sheet percentages of each of those companies, which have to be identified by a letter of the alphabet and not their names. For the balance sheet components, we can use the same ones used in our reference document. Use the first two pages of the attached document as a reference.

DOCUMENT 2: TEACHING NOTE

In this document, we need to make a list of the comprehensive steps that we will use to match each company with its corresponding balance sheet data. We need to clearly explain our decision to match each company with its relevant data contained in document 1. This explanation needs to represent a detailed analysis of the ratios that we use in our evaluation and their importance based on multiple factors such as historical or technical data regularly observed in a particular industry or sector and/or the pertinence of a given ratio, asset, liability, or equity for a company in that particular market and so on.

Statistics Analysis

conduct the following descriptive statistics analyses with Microsoft® Excel®. Answer the questions below in your Microsoft® Excel® sheet or in a separate Microsoft® Word document:

Insert a new column in the database that corresponds to “Annual Sales.” Annual Sales is the result of multiplying a restaurant’s “SqFt.” by “Sales/SqFt.”

Calculate the mean, standard deviation, skew, 5-number summary, and interquartile range (IQR) for each of the variables.

Create a box-plot for the “Annual Sales” variable. Does it look symmetric? Would you prefer the IQR instead of the standard deviation to describe this variable’s dispersion? Why?

Create a histogram for the “Sales/SqFt” variable. Is the distribution symmetric? If not, what is the skew? Are there any outliers? If so, which one(s)? What is the “SqFt” area of the outlier(s)? Is the outlier(s) smaller or larger than the average restaurant in the database? What can you conclude from this observation?

What measure of central tendency is more appropriate to describe “Sales/SqFt”? Why?
