MBA 6350 Case Study 2

In this project, you will develop a best fitting regression model to predict home prices from several variables using a random sample of 1,000 houses located in the greater Wilmington, Delaware area (Home Prices Data Set.xlsx).  The data set contains 5 variables: price of the home, living area (square feet), number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms, and age of the home.  In developing both your model and the report, address the items below.

  1. There are numerous variables that are believed to be predictors of housing prices, including the ones in the data set for this project. Using the web, find the key variables that determine home price including any not include in this data set.
  2. Using Data>Data Analysis>Descriptive Statistics in Excel, calculate the mean, median, range and standard deviation of each variable and summarize the results in table.
  3. Using Excel, create histograms for price of the home, living area (square feet) and age of the home. Be sure to give each chart a title and label the axes clearly.
  4. Using Excel, create scatterplots of each variable with each other variable. Be sure to give each chart a title and label the axes clearly.
  5. Using Data>Data Analysis>Correlation in Excel, calculate the correlation coefficient each variable with each other variable.
  6. Using Data>Data Analysis>Regression in Excel, run 4 separate simple regression models to predict the dependent variable (price of the home) with each of the independent variables. Use an alpha level of 0.05 to determine significance.
  7. Using Data>Data Analysis>Regression in Excel, run a multiple regression model to predict the dependent variable with all 4 independent variables. Use an alpha level of 0.05 to determine significance.
  8. In Word, write a summary report of the findings that includes the tables, charts and regression analyses from steps 1-7 and includes the following:
    1. An introductory paragraph summarizes the purpose of the analysis. Also include information that found in your web search about the key variables that determine home price.
    2. A section (1 or more paragraphs) describing what the tabular data from step 2 indicate about the central tendency, variability and distribution of each variable. For example, do the variables appear to be distributed in a symmetric or skewed pattern.
    3. A section (1 or more paragraphs) describing how the frequency histograms from step 3 support and clarify the findings of the tabular data. Include in this section any evidence suggesting outliers in the data.
    4. A section (1 or more paragraphs) describing what the scatterplots from step 4 and correlations from step 5 indicate about the relationship between the various pairs of variables (e.g., are the variables related?, does the relationship appear to be linear or nonlinear?, is the direction of the relationship positive or negative?).
    5. A section (1 or more paragraphs) summarizing the findings of the 4 simple regression models from step 6. Which models (if any) show that the independent variable in the model is a significant predictor of price of the home?  Which models (if any) show that the independent variable in the model is not a significant predictor of price of the home?  Which model is the best fitting?  Which model is the poorest fitting?
    6. A section (1 or more paragraphs) summarizing the findings of the multiple regression model from step 7. Which variables in the model (if any) show that are a significant predictor of price of the home?  Which variables in the model (if any) show that are not a significant predictor of price of the home?  Does the multiple regression model provide a better fit than the best fitting simple regression model?
    7. A concluding paragraph summarizing the key findings of the analysis and making about which model is the best fitting. Based on your web research, indicate any other variables that are not included in the current best fitting model that might improve the fit if they were included.

Note:  Submit a single Excel workbook showing all work for steps 2-7 and a Word document of your summary report that addresses all parts step 8.  Make sure to clearly label your tables and charts.

 

Critically evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the New Consensus Macroeconomics (NCM) theory in light of the realities exposed by the global financial crisis of 2007/ 08.

Critically evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the New Consensus Macroeconomics (NCM) theory in light of the realities exposed by the global financial crisis of 2007/ 08. While answering the question you may consider whether a ‘paradigmatic’ shift has taken place or not, as well as account for alternative approaches and developments.

Describe your community as to location, geography, size, transportation, recreational, economic, cultural, and demographic characteristics, including the break-down of various age groups in the population.

/in /by

Start with those basic elements of your community environment before going on to more specialized services designed solely for its older residents. Using this information, write a 5-8 page paper in which you:

1. Describe your community as to location, geography, size, transportation, recreational, economic, cultural, and demographic characteristics, including the break-down of various age groups in the population.

2. Conduct a survey of your community’s services, both general and specific to aging people. You may find it helpful to start with your town/city/county/local area Agency on Aging websites (information about how to access these can be found under “Readings and Resources” for this lesson). You may include any number of services in your survey. I suggest that you present information in table format to shorten the paper. For each service, give available information about eligibility requirements, fees, and type(s) of services provided. You may find it difficult to get some of the information you are looking for, and if so, this experience is important to describe in your paper, too (consider that the consumer probably has less skill that you do in searching, and will probably not find it either).

3. Conduct interviews with three people as follows:

Someone aged 65 and older
A health care professional
An administrator of a community service for older adults
4. Structure your interviews to obtain the following information:

For the older adult:

Does the person being interviewed know about the services you found on your survey?
Has he/she used any of these services?
Would he/she use or refuse services in the future?
What problems does he/she perceive with aging-related issues now or in the future?
Where would he/she go for help should he/she need it?
What are his/her hopes and fears for the future?
How well is the community responding to the needs of its elders?
What is needed that is not available?
Who should provide for these unmet needs?
What can older members of the community contribute to the community?
For provider and administrator:

What problems do they perceive with aging-related services now or in the future?
How well is the community responding to the needs of its elders?
What is needed that is not available?
Who should lead the effort to evaluate needs and services for older adults?
Who should plan for meeting these needs?
Who should pay for services to meets the needs of aging adults in the community?
Comment on whether these responses fit with your impressions of how U.S. policy is currently written.
Based on your assessment findings, summarize the positive and negative aspects of the quality of life for older adults who live in your community.

Cite the article and provide a brief overview of how the results or findings were obtained.

For this written assignment, select one recent (within the past two years) evidence-based article from a peer reviewed nursing journal that describes a “best practice” in an area of nursing you are interested in. For example, if you would like to be a pediatric nurse, select an article that discusses a best practice in pediatric care.

Cite the article and provide a brief overview of how the results or findings were obtained. Then describe the “best practice.” Conclude your discussion by explaining whether you thought the research findings supported the conclusions and the best practice.

This assignment must be no more than 3 pages long. It should include all of the required elements. Use APA Editorial format and attach a copy of the article.
