2 Module Four Assignment Explanation of the Importance of Data Analysis Data is a narrative used to explain your data that supports your conclusions or recommendations. The narrative has the structure of a story, including a conflict or crisis and a resolution (Soomo, 2020). Data is important because it is the ability to check, process, and interpret vast amounts of data and it is the core function of business operations today (CData Software. 2024). There are different ways to tell if the new product had a successful launch. One way is to Identify trends in your data that you wouldn't be able to see any other way. Another way is to observe product launch-related information like times to finish a procedure, patient complaints, and whether any follow-up procedures occurred. Description of Findings The cost of goods sold started declining in January. The starting cost was $23,920; in May, the price decreased to$18,460.00; it gradually decreased to $17,095 in July and remained steady. The cost of goods sold totaled $235,170. In spite of the initial decline of negative $18,920 in January, profits increased, reaching $12,905 by December. The total annual profit totaled $9,830. This repeated growth in profits is noticeable in the business's steadiness. The product showed growth but achieving the profit target remained demanding. We used cost and revenue data to assess its performance. The percentage improved from negative three percent in January to four percent in December. The success of the company is measured by customer services surveys and
3 by how much the company is selling for each individual product between the months that is was in production. Summary of Results This chart shows the trend for the cost of goods sold, total revenue, profit, and percent profit over a period of January to December.
