内容説明

Practical Business Statistics, Sixth Edition, is a conceptual , realistic, and matter-of-fact approach to managerial statistics that carefully maintains, but does not overemphasize, mathematical correctness. The book offers a deep understanding of how to learn from data and how to deal with uncertainty while promoting the use of practical computer applications. This teaches present and future managers how to use and understand statistics without an overdose of technical detail, enabling them to better understand the concepts at hand and to interpret results. The text uses excellent examples with real world data relating to the functional areas within Business such as finance, accounting, and marketing. It is well written and designed to help students gain a solid understanding of fundamental statistical principles without bogging them down with excess mathematical details. This edition features many examples and problems that have been updated with more recent data sets, and continues to use the ever-changing Internet as a data source. Supplemental materials include companion website with datasets and software. Each chapter begins with an overview, showing why the subject is important to business, and ends with a comprehensive summary, with key words, questions, problems, database exercises, projects, and cases in most chapters. This text is written for the introductory business/management statistics course offered for undergraduate students or Quantitative Methods in Management/ Analytics for Managers at the MBA level.

内容説明

StatPad is a CD-ROM add-in that simplifies analysis when using Excel (R). Statistical methods are organized for quick and easy access, and results are placed back into the worksheet together with an explanation of the results. In addition to making computation more accessible, this approach ensures that the students will still have convenient access to statistical methods after the course is over. Many former students continue to use StatPad-and statistics-in their managerial work. StatPad was developed by Skyline Technologies, Inc., with the assistance of Andrew F. Siegel. Through the use of familiar Windows (R) and Excel (R) style dialog boxes, with the results placed back into the spreadsheet, statistics operations essentially become part of the worksheet, just like any other spreadsheet command. By breaking down barriers to the effective use of computers, statistical concepts can be learned more quickly and painlessly.
