Question No. 02

Prediction of ticket sales

The statistical tool i.e. regression is used in order to predict ticket sales and concession sales, it is being analyzed that the 27 percent is the coefficient of ticket sales which indicates that the value of ticket sales which is independent variable tends to be increases because the coefficient of predicting ticket sales is positive. If ticket sales increases by one unit, there would be 27% change in revenue. On the other hand, the multiple R value for the ticket sales is comparatively lower than concession sales i.e. 65 percent which means that the data is 65% fitted to the regression line. It can be seen below;

Regression Statistics
Multiple R 0.650444088
R Square 0.423077512
Adjusted R Square 0.414201781
Standard Error 611.7027183

Prediction of concession sales

On contrary, the coefficient of concession sales is 74 percent which means that if concession sales increases by one unit, there would be 74% change in revenue. Also, the linear relationship is strong for the concession sales as it can be analyzed from the Multiple R value i.e. 97 percent or it can be said that the data is 97% fitted to the regression line.It can be seen in below;

Regression Statistics
Multiple R 0.970766
R Square 0.942387
Adjusted R Square 0.941501
Standard Error 468.0865
Observations 67

 

Regardless of this, it is mentioned in the case that the budget of approximately $9 million is being provided by the university which can be reduced through increasing revenues, the best predictor of the revenues for upcoming session might be the statistical analysis rather than any other forecasting tool...................
