Pls use EXCEL..Identify and remove the six cases corresponding to December revenue.Then, use the new data set (without the December data) to complete the following problems.
(a)Develop a multiple linear regression model to predict Wal-Mart revenue, using CPI, Personal Consumption, and Retail Sales Index as the independent variables.You also need to create residual plots, scatter plots and normal probability plots by selecting residual plots box and line fit plots box under "Residuals", and normal probability plots box under "Normal Probability".Note: Those plots are for the individual independent variables.
(b)Check the Residuals box under "Residuals" and Excel will generate predicted values and residuals at the bottom of the output for the multiple regression model.Then, use these two output values to create the residual plot by Excel's scatter chart (Insert tab > Charts > Scatter chart).Comment on what you see on the plot.Note: This residual plot is for the entire model.
(c)Does it seem that Wal-Mart's revenue is closely related to the general state of the economy?Use all plots and statistical criteria on the Excel Regression output to explain it.
(d)Compare the results of parts (a) and (d), which of these two models is better?Use R-square values, adjusted R-square values, Significance F values, p-values, scatter plots, residual plots and normal probability plots to explain your answer.
