## 
##  Pearson's product-moment correlation
## 
## data:  store$Profit and store$MTenure
## t = 4.1731, df = 73, p-value = 8.193e-05
## alternative hypothesis: true correlation is not equal to 0
## 95 percent confidence interval:
##  0.2353497 0.6055175
## sample estimates:

## 0.4388692

p-value = 8.193e-05.Since the value is smaller than 0.05,we reject the null hypothesis and therefore conclude that there is signicant relationship between profit and manager tenure, that is 0.43

19)Executive Summary:

-Increasing of a crew’s tenure by 1 month increases the profit by 945 units and increasing manager’s tenure by 1 month increases the tenure by 761 units,Therefore more investment should be made on crew members than the managers

-From the scatterplot of crew tenure vs profit, it can be seen from solid red non parametric regression line that there is increasing trend till the tenure of 60 months and after that there is saturation(ie tenure doesn’t increase profits).However that saturation is not much observed in case of managers. Therefore, crew members who have 60 months experience or more should be given more incentive to stay than the members who have initially joined(0-20 months)

-Since the correlation value is less than 0.5, the correlation of crew and manager tenure with profit is not strong,therefore, overall heavy investment should not be made for new training programs and career development programs.

-mean
Profit 276313.61 MTenure 45.30
CTenure 13.93
Since the mean of crew members tenure is way less than managers tenure, more should be invested in terms of incentives to stay in crew members so as to increase the average number of years a crew person stays.

-The profits are majorly affected more by other variables such as Res, Pedcount,Pop, comp and Hours24 which are statistically significant than the tenure of the store employees.Therfore while slecting location for opening new stores,these factors should be accounted for.

-All stores should be openend for 24 hours.

-Considering a case where the salary of crew and managers is increased by 5% per annum or less, it shall reap profits for the store over a salary range of approx 50,000 to 1,00,000 units . Therefore 6% seems to be an ideal figure for crew members and 4% for managers.
