Problem 4: Continuing with problem 3, a firm open to conduct a market research involving the proposed venture and using analytical tools can give an accurate information, thus gave the following info: Probability of a favorable market given a favorable study is 0.82 Probability of an unfavorable market given a favorable study is 0.18 Probability of a favorable market given an unfavorable study is 0.11 Probability of an unfavorable market given an unfavorable study is 0.89 Probability of a favorable research study is 0.55 Probability of an unfavorable research study is 0.45 Required: Develop a new decision tree for the doctors to reflect the options now open with the market study. Use the EMV approach to recommend a strategy. What is the expected value of information?

Match the description on the right with the correct term on the left regarding types of forecasting methods. 1. Econometric, input-output, and simulation are techniques used with this type of forecasting method, which assumes that the variable to be forecasted is related to one or more intrinsic variables. Causal Methods 2. The Delphi technique, market surveys, and life-cycles analogy are techniques used with this type of forecasting method, which relies on the judgment of individuals or Qualitative Methods Time-Series Methods groups. 3. Moving averages and exponential smoothing are techniques used with this type of forecasting method, which assumes that time is the only important variable.
These two questions please.
The phrase “Correlation does not equal causation” means: Question 30 options: there is no guarantee that a cause-and-effect relationship exists between two variables that are correlated. there is only a 30% chance that a cause-and-effect relationship exists between two variables. a cause-and-effect relationship only certainly exists when data are gathered in a specific way. a cause-and-effect relationship can only exist with ratio-level variables.

A paper concluded that there was a correlation between refined sugar consumption (calories per person per day) and annual rate of major depression (cases per 100 people) based on data from six countries. The following data were read from a graph that appeared in the раper. Sugar Consumption Depression Rate Country Korea 160 2.4 United States 290 3.1 France 360 4.3 Germany 365 4.9 Canada 380 5.3 New Zealand 470 5.6 n USE SALT (a) Calculate the correlation coefficient for this data set. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) r = 0.9428 Interpret the correlation coefficient for this data set. O There is a weak, positive linear relationship between depression rate and sugar consumption. O There is no linear relationship between depression rate and sugar consumption.

You also conducted a review of the research literature and found that similar studies examining the relationship between alcohol consumption and liver cancer found the following: Smithson et al. RR 3.3 (95% CI:1.95-5.20) Ribera et al. RR 2.1 (95% CI:1.17-3.33) Gonzalez et al. RR 2.75 (95% CI 2.26-3.45) Which one of Hill’s criteria does this illustrate? Explain.
Estimating income tax based on dividends is also not straightforward, due in part to Australia’s franking credit scheme. Mike is looking to simplify total annual tax projections for a share portfolio based simply on the share portfolio's current value. To do this, he wishes to determine if there is any statistically significant linear relationship between the two. Mike has randomly sampled 30 individuals with share portfolios over AUD$100,000 and mapped the assessed value of the portfolio (in AUD $1000) to the total taxes paid on that amount (in AUD$1). Mike's data is in the table below. Assessed Value Taxes 426.1 5014 368.8 3698 309.8 3691 373.9 5189 445.7 4455 505.1 5189 342.3 3416 343.6 3931 432.3 4393 329.2 3267 291.2 2871 399.3 4013 392.7 4728 482.2 4885 480.6 4888 390.8 3917 371.6 3738 311.9 3098 343.7 3633 304.7 3538 274.6 3427 457.1 4633 231.5 4009 450.5 4565 510.1 5946 308.4 3045 348.8 3504 410.4 3375…
