TASK 2j - Correlations

Use R to measure the correlation between Profit and MTenure. (Display the numbers up to 2 Decimal places)

Use R to measure the correlation between Profit and CTenure. (Display the numbers up to 2 Decimal places)

round(cor(Profit,MTenure),2)

TASK 2k

Use R to construct the following Corrgram based on all variables in the dataset.

library(corrgram)
storenew <- store[,c("Profit", "CTenure")]
corrgram(storenew, order=FALSE, 
         lower.panel=panel.shade,
         upper.panel=panel.pie, 
         text.panel=panel.txt,
         diag.panel=panel.minmax,
         main="Corrgram")

corrgram(store, order=FALSE, 
         lower.panel=panel.shade,
         upper.panel=panel.pie, 
         text.panel=panel.txt,
         diag.panel=panel.minmax,
         main='corrgram of all Variables')

We see that profit and sales are the most highly positively correlated of all the variables following which profit is highly positively correlated to MTenure, Pop & PedCount. We also observed that manager Tenure is highly positively corelated to Sales and profits following which MTenuew is somewhat positively correlated to CTenure, MgrSkill, ServQual, Comp and Visibility. Managerial’s Skill is highly positively correlated to Srevice quality, sales and profits. We also see a positive correlation between managers skill and his tenure as well as Comp.

Answer- Visibility

TASK 2m

Based on TASK 2m, answer the following questions:

Question- What is expected change in the Profit at a store, if the Manager’s tenure i.e. number of months of experience with Store24, increases by one month?

Answer- Profit will increase by 760.993 if Manager tenure is increased by a month.

Question-What is expected change in the Profit at a store, if the Crew’s tenure i.e. number of months of experience with Store24, increases by one month?

Answer- Profit will increase by 944.978 if Manager tenure is increased by a month.

TASK 2n

Executive Summary

From the above analysis and regression, In Store24, mean sale = 1205413.12 and median sale = 1227332.0, not to much diffrence in mean and median, so there is possiblity that data is uniformly distributed(not to much outliers). One of the explaination for CTenure has higher beta-coefficient with profit than MTtenure is it’s standard deviation is 17.7 which is less than MTenure’s standard deviation = 57.67. If we see the corrgram plot, we find higher correlation between profit and Manager’s Tenure, Population and Pedesterian Count while Visibility of store have negative correlation and also not statistically significant, which is very surprising and need a real world analysis to find root cause of occurance. R-square(coefficient of determination) is more than 50%, which means all the variables taken to explain variation in profit are significant.While adjusted R-square is less than R-square, so adding more variable is not right way to reduce error.May be there is some other factors that are affecting sales. F-statistic value is not so high so taking 8 variable all together is not fruitful inspite of that indivisual analysis need to done. Opening store for 24 hours is profitable for stores. Although p-value of visibility is statistically significant but beta coefficient is high so it really matter for sales
