The technique of regression analysis is used so often in business and economics today that an understanding of its use is necessary for almost everyone engaged in the field. It is especially useful for those engaged in working with numbers--preparing forecasts, budgeting, estimating the effects of business decisions, and any of the forms of analytics that have recently become so useful. This book is a nontheoretical treatment that is accessible to readers with even a limited statistical background. This book specifically does not cover the theory of regression; it is designed to teach the correct use of regression, while advising the reader of its limitations and teaching about common pitfalls. It is useful for business professionals, MBA students, and others with a desire to understand regression analysis without having to work through tedious mathematical/statistical theory. This book describes exactly how regression models are developed and evaluated. Real data are used, instead of contrived textbook-like problems. The data used in the book are the kind of data managers are faced with in the real world. Included are instructions for using Microsoft Excel to build business/economic models using regression analysis with an appendix using screen shots and step-by-step instructions. Completing this book will allow you to understand and build basic business/economic models using regression analysis. You will be able to interpret the output of those models and you will be able to evaluate the models for accuracy and shortcomings. Even if you never build a model yourself, at some point in your career it is likely that you will find it necessary to interpret one; this book will make that possible. 410 0$aQuantitative approaches to decision making collection. 606 $aRegression analysis 615 0$aRegression analysis. 676 $a005.369 700 $aWilson$b J.

Using detailed and comprehensive data that describe more than four thousand whaling voyages from New Bedford, Massachusetts, the leading nineteenth-century whaling port, the authors explore the market for whale products, crew quality and labor contracts, and whale biology and distribution, and assess the productivity of the American fleet. They then examine new whaling techniques developed at the end of the nineteenth century, such as modified clippers and harpoons, and the introduction of darting guns. Despite the common belief that the whaling industry declined due to a fall in whale stocks, the authors argue that the industry's collapse was related to changes in technology and market conditions. Providing a wealth of historical information, In Pursuit of Leviathan is a classic industry study that will provide intriguing reading for anyone interested in the history of whaling. 410 0$aNBER series on long-term factors in economic development. 606 $aWhaling$xEconomic aspects$zUnited States 606 $aWhaling$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aWhaling$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aWhaling$xHistory 676 $a338.3/7295/097309034 700 $aDavis$b Lance E$g(Lance Edwin)$0118703 701 $aGallman$b Robert E$0140609 701 $aGleiter$b Karin$0145547 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910956280903321 996 $aIn pursuit of Leviathan$94352264 997 $aUNINA
