Bowling Corporation wants to know how closely its current cost driver is correlated with its monthly operating costs. The managerial accountant runs a regression analysis using a statistical software program and produces the following data: Intercept Coefficient = 12,200,567 X Variable 1 Coefficient = 95.65 R-square = 0.8574 What is the Bowling Corporation's monthly cost equation? O A. y = $95.65x + $12,200,567 O B. y = $95.65x + $8,574 O c. y $0.8574x + $12,200,567 O D. y = $12,200,567x + $8,574

The following data show the brand, price ($), and the overall score for six stereo headphones that were tested by a certain magazine. The overall score is based on sound quality and effectiveness of ambient noise reduction. Scores range from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest). The estimated regression equation for these data is  ŷ = 23.462 + 0.315x,  where x = price ($) and y = overall score.

A park has kept the number of visitors since its opening in January. For the first six months of the year, the following numbers were recorded: Month Number of visitors Month Number of visitors January 133 April 640 February 183 May 1,879 March 285 June 2,550 Estimate the intercept and slope of the linear regression equation for forecasting the numbers of visitors. What are the forecasts for July through December of the year using the regression equation? The numbers of visitors to the park were 2,150 in July, and 2,660. Use Holt’s method with α=0.15 and β= 0.10 to find the one-step-ahead and two-step-ahead forecasts for September and October, respectively.

answer both please and explain well.  Anna company sells coffee products to various customers. In recent years, profits have been declining. The CFO of the company investigated the reasons for the profit decline and performed regression analysis for sales and costs. The CFO determined that sales depend on product price, delivery speed, customer services, and marketing expenses. She also determined that total costs consist of variable costs of $25 per unit and fixed costs of $56,000. Marketing expenses have a coefficient of determination of 75% related sales. Questions 1. Define the coefficient of determination and explain what it means in this scenario. 2. Express the relationship between total costs and variable costs for Anna Company using a regression equation. Explain each element of the equation.

The following data show the brand, price (S), and the overall score for six stereo headphones that were tested by a certain magazine. The overall score is based on sound quality and effectiveness of ambient noise reduction. Scores range from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest).

The datasetBody.xlsgives the percent of weight made up of body fat for 100 men as well as other variables such as Age, Weight (lb), Height (in), and circumference (cm) measurements for the Neck, Chest, Abdomen, Ankle, Biceps, and Wrist. We are interested in predicting body fat based on abdomen circumference. Find the equation of the regression line relating to body fat and abdomen circumference. Make a scatter-plot with a regression line. What body fat percent does the line predict for a person with an abdomen circumference of 110 cm? One of the men in the study had an abdomen circumference of 92.4 cm and a body fat of 22.5 percent. Find the residual that corresponds to this observation. Bodyfat Abdomen 32.3 115.6 22.5 92.4 22 86 12.3 85.2 20.5 95.6 22.6 100 28.7 103.1 21.3 89.6 29.9 110.3 21.3 100.5 29.9 100.5 20.4 98.9 16.9 90.3 14.7 83.3 10.8 73.7 26.7 94.9 11.3 86.7 18.1 87.5 8.8 82.8 11.8 83.3 11 83.6 14.9 87 31.9 108.5 17.3…
