for next year. The Atlantic Coast branch, with current sales of $193.8 million, is expected to achieve sales growth of 7.25%; the Midwest branch, with current sales of $79.3 million, is expected to have a increase of 8.20%, and that the Pacific Coast branch, with current sales of $57.5 million, increase its sales 7.15%. What is the predicted average growth rate in sales for the next year?

(Hint: Use either the Trendline option or the Regression tool.) Using the regression tool in Excel (with a constant term), in 2021, Amazon's stock price is forecasted to be $ and Walmart's is forecasted to be $ (Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places.)
The owners would like to know what reasons caused the current performance of the company and ask your opinion. Through review of the complete records you were able to obtain this additional information: (1) The selling price for every unit is P7.20 during 2018 and; (2) The marketing department did a tremendous job and was able to increase sales units by 20% during 2019. The percentage increase (decrease) in unit cost is:
Dave Fletcher, the general manager of North Carolina Engineering Corporation (NCEC), thinks that his firm’s engineer-ing services contracted to highway construction firms are directly related to the volume of highway construction business contractedwith companies in his geographic area. He wonders if this is reallyso, and if it is, can this information help him plan his operationsbetter by forecasting the quantity of his engineering servicesrequired by construction firms in each quarter of the year? Thefollowing table presents the sales of his services and total amountsof contracts for highway construction over the past eight quarters: a) Using this data, develop a regression equation for predictingthe level of demand of NCEC’s services. b) Determine the coefficient of correlation and the standard errorof the estimate.
