Contents:
Chapter 1. Data Collection -- Chapter 2. Descriptive Statistics: Graphs and Index Numbers -- Chapter 3. Descriptive Statistics: Location and Dispersion -- Chapter 4. Probability Concepts and Random Variables -- Chapter 5. The Binomial, Hypergeometric, and Poisson Distributions -- Chapter 6. Continuous Probability Distributions -- Chapter 7. Estimation -- Chapter 8. Hypothesis Testing -- Chapter 9. Simple Linear Regression and Correlation -- Chapter 10. Multiple Regression: Cross-Section and Time-Series Analysis -- Chapter 11. Analysis of Variance -- Chapter 12. Statistical Decision Theory -- Chapter 13. Nonparametric Statistics.
Summary: The primary objective of this book is to provide students with an introductory one-semester text that will assist them in applying statistical analysis to real-world business and economics problems. Since easy-to-use statistical computer packages are now readily available, our examples and case studies emphasize the use of micro or mainframe computers to perform cumbersome calculations. Computational procedures are presented and demonstrated only to the extent they assist students in understanding the statistical principles involved in the analysis.
