    The document discusses a regression analysis performed to predict sales of two car models, Rocinante36 and Marengo32, based on price, mileage, and top speed. Key findings include: 1) Regression equations were developed for each model with predictors of price, mileage, and top speed. Predicted sales were 227897 units for Rocinante36 and 25265 units for Marengo32. 2) Based on the predictions, the overall predicted profit for Rocinante36 was higher, so this would be the model for investment. 3) Rebuilding the regression with only significant predictors led to a slight increase in the adjusted R-square values, improving the model fit.

    Q-1a) Formulate the null hypotheses to check whether the new models are
    performing as per the desired design specifications.

    For Rocinante36: For Marengo32:

    Mileage HO : car mileage =22kmpl Mileage HO : car Mileage = 15 kmpl

    Top speed HO : top speed = 140kmph Top speed HO : Top Speed = 210kmph
    Q-1b) Formulate the alternate hypotheses to check whether the new models
    are performing as per the desired design specifications.

    For Rocinante36: For Marengo32:

    Mileage H1 : Car Mileage not = Mileage H1 : car mileage not =


    22kmpl 15kmpl

    Top speed H1 : top speed not = Top speed H1 : top speed not =
    140kmph 210kmph
    Q-2) In order to comment on whether the design specifications are being
    matched or not, perform relevant hypothesis tests and calculate the p-value for
    each. What will you conclude? Assume you are performing the tests at 95%
    confidence level.
    For Rocinante36: Conclusion

    p-value for mileage = 0.082 ❖ Assuming Significance Level of 0.05 at


    95% Confidence Interval, it can be stated that in all the 4
    p-value for top speed = 0.432
    scenarios for both the models the p-value > alpha.

    For Marengo32: ❖ we will fail to reject the Null hypothesis in all the 4
    scenarios for both the models.
    p-value for mileage = 0.134
    ❖ we will fail to challenge the
    p-value for top speed = 0.373 company’s promised specifications
    Q-3) You have learnt about the possible errors that might result from the
    hypothesis tests. What type of error is more expensive for Random motors
    based on the hypothesis they are testing? Why? Assume that you need to
    refund all your customers if your cars deviate from specifications.
    The type of error which is more Reason:
    expensive: ❖ In Type 2 error, when we fail to reject the null
    hypothesis and is false which means not provide the
    ❖ Type 2 error is more expensive. promised specifications, then company will suffer a huge
    negative publicity which in turn will affect its brand value
    and also be forced to refund to all their customers.
    Q-4) Develop a regression equation for each model at 95 percent confidence
    level. From the regression equation predict the sales of the two models.
    Develop the regression equation for the Develop the regression equation for the
    Rocinante models and Predict the number Marengo models and Predict the number of
    of unit sales of Rocinante36 model? unit sales of Marengo32 model?

    Mileage: 8.306331092 Mileage: 0.041301187

    Predicted Sales(in units): 227897 Predicted Sales(in units): 25265
    Q-5) Based on sales prediction, what is the overall predicted profit for
    Rocinante36 model and Marengo32 model ?

    Overall predicted profit

    Rocinante36 Model: 227897

    Marengo32 Model: 202118.7942


    Q-6) As a CEO, you wish to invest only in the model which is predicted to be
    more profitable. Which model among Rocinante36 and Marengo32 will you
    invest in?

    Which model you will invest in?

    On the basis of predicted profit of both the models we can come to a conclusion that Rocinante36 is the one to make an
    investment into as this model is going to bring more profit compared to Marengo32.
    Q-7) Now you must have derived the regression equation for both models, Rocinante and
    Marengo. Now if you increase the price of Rocinante36 and Marengo32 by 1 lac rupees
    each, which car will have a higher impact on the sales due to increase in price? Give proper
    logic for your answer. You can consider that all other specifications such as mileage and top
    speed remain the same for both models.

    Which car is most affected by a price increase? Why?

    Due to the price hike Rocinante 36 gets impact on the sales compared to Marengo.
    The price coefficient is higher in Rocinante 36 impact is on the higher side.
    Q-8) After developing the regression equation for both models (Rocinante and Marengo), if you
    analyse the p values for coefficients in the regression results, you will notice that some of the
    regression variables (top speed, mileage and price) are insignificant. Remove the insignificant
    regression variables from your selection and rebuild the regression model using only significant
    variables. Compare the Adjusted R square value for the new and old regression model. Do you
    notice any change in Adjusted R square value? If yes, explain the reason for the change.

    Is there a change on Adjusted R square Value? If so, Why?

    There is a slight increase in the Adjusted R Square values for both the models.
    When taking only significant independent variables in the new regression model it’s improving the Adjusted R Square value because
    the Adjusted R square value increases when the considered independent variable is improving the model.
