The sale of a company rose from $ 60,000 in the
month of August to $ 69,000 in the month of
September. The seasonal indices for these two
months are 105 and 140 respectively. The owner of
the company was not at all satisfied with the rise of
sales in the month of September by $ 9,000.
He expected much more because of the seasonal
index for that month.
What was his estimate of sales for the month of
September?
Kalamazoo Blooming Nursery is a small company specializing in selling flowers. They
developed a new product called Flowers of the Month in which they would send a
customer a different flower arrangement every month. KBN charged $52 a month
for Flowers of the Month. KBN spent $60,000 on their marketing campaign last
year, including advertising, which led to $94,000 extra profit over the year. They
estimate that their extra sales last year from this campaign was $80,000 on their
usual (baseline}sales of $450,000. From the campaign they acquired 43 subscribers
to Flowers of the Month who continued to subscribe to Flowers of the Month for an
average of 4 years.
What is the lift from this campaign? (Note: multiply answer by 100 to represent %)

Last year’s freshman class at Big State University totaled 5,327 students. Of those, 1,265 received a merit scholarship to help offset tuition costs their freshman year (although the amount varied per student). The amount a student received was N($3,468, $489). If the cost of full tuition was $4,100 last year, what percentage of students who received a merit scholarship did not receive enough to cover full tuition?

- Sarah studies Business and Management and she also has a part-time job as a waitress at a restaurant. The restaurant does not include service charges in their bills, and therefore Sarah often receives tips from the customers. Some customers give her very generous tips, while others leave hardly anything or nothing at all. Sarah began to wonder what the size of the tip may depend on. Just out of curiosity, she started to keep a record of the total prices on the bills and the tips she received. At first, she fit a simple linear regression model to the data and found that the size of the tip was significantly related to the total price. But at this point, she speculated that the tips may be affected by other factors as well, and an even better model could possibly be constructed by including further independent variables. For instance, the chef who prepares the dish(es) might affect the customers' satisfaction. The restaurant employs three chefs: Richard, Thomas, and Linda.
