Descriptive Statistics Analysis Assignment
Purpose
This assignment is intended to help you learn how to apply
statistical methods when analyzing operational data, evaluating the performance
of current marketing strategies, and recommending actionable business
decisions. This is an opportunity to build critical-thinking and
problem-solving skills within the context of data analysis and interpretation.
You’ll gain a first-hand understanding of how data analytics supports decision-making
and adds value to an organization.
Scenario:
Pastas R Us, Inc. is a fast-casual restaurant chain
specializing in noodle-based dishes, soups, and salads. Since its inception,
the business development team has favored opening new restaurants in areas
(within a 3-mile radius) that satisfy the following demographic conditions:

Median
age between 25 – 45 years old
Household
median income above national average
At
least 15% college educated adult population

Last year, the marketing department rolled out a Loyalty
Card strategy to increase sales. Under this program, customers present their
Loyalty Card when paying for their orders and receive some free food after
making 10 purchases.
The company has collected data from its 74 restaurants to
track important variables such as average sales per customer, year-on-year
sales growth, sales per sq. ft., Loyalty Card usage as a percentage of sales,
and others. A key metric of financial performance in the restaurant industry is
annual sales per sq. ft. For example, if a 1200 sq. ft. restaurant recorded $2
million in sales last year, then it sold $1,667 per sq. ft.
Executive management wants to know whether the current expansion
criteria can be improved. They want to evaluate the effectiveness of the
Loyalty Card marketing strategy and identify feasible, actionable opportunities
for improvement. As a member of the analytics department, you’ve been assigned
the responsibility of conducting a thorough statistical analysis of the
company’s available database to answer executive management’s questions.
Report:
Write a 750-word statistical report that includes the
following sections:

Section
1: Scope and descriptive statistics
Section
2: Analysis
Section
3: Recommendations and Implementation

Section 1 – Scope and descriptive statistics

State
the report’s objective.
Discuss
the nature of the current database. What variables were analyzed?
Summarize
your descriptive statistics findings from Excel. Use a table and insert
appropriate graphs.

Section 2 – Analysis

Using
Excel, create scatter plots and display the regression equations for the
following pairs of variables:
“BachDeg%”
versus “Sales/SqFt”
“MedIncome”
versus “Sales/SqFt”
“MedAge”
versus “Sales/SqFt”
“LoyaltyCard(%)”
versus “SalesGrowth(%)”
In
your report, include the scatter plots. For each scatter plot, designate
the type of relationship observed (increasing/positive,
decreasing/negative, or no relationship) and determine what you can
conclude from these relationships.

Section 3: Recommendations and implementation

Based
on your findings above, assess which expansion criteria seem to be more
effective. Could any expansion criterion be changed or eliminated? If so,
which one and why?
Based
on your findings above, does it appear as if the Loyalty Card is
positively correlated with sales growth? Would you recommend changing
this marketing strategy?
Based
on your previous findings, recommend marketing positioning that targets a
specific demographic. (Hint: Are younger people patronizing the restaurants
more than older people?)
Indicate
what information should be collected to track and evaluate the
effectiveness of your recommendations. How can this data be collected?
(Hint: Would you use survey/samples or census?)

Cite at least 4 references to support your
assignment.
Format your citations according to APA
guidelines.
Submit your assignment.

Poster art was a leading form of propaganda used by all belligerrents in the First World home front. Posters also demonized the enemy and glorified the sacrifices of soldiers to better rationalize the unprecedented loss of life and national wealth.

The posters shown here, from a wide range of combatant nations during the war, share a common desire to link the war effort to a set of assumptions about the different roles assigned to men and women in the national struggle.
