Statistics for Business and Economics

Designed to build a strong foundation in applied statistical procedures, Statistics for Business and Economics enables students to perform solid statistical analysis in real-world scenarios. The authors work through examples and explanations with a blend of rigor and accessibility. The book's diverse applications, both in the exercises and the examples, help students see how statistics is applied to everyday and work- related situations. Many assignments use real-world data sets Happiness Report Data, Inflation Euro Area, Renewable Energy, Employment Gap Data, OECD Pay Gap Data-that help students extend their statistical understanding to their lives. The assignments are sorted in increasing order of difficulty, starting with basic skills and applications and progressing to increasingly challenging exercises and case studies. This book can be used in a variety of courses (such as MBA or undergraduate business programs that teach business statistics, graduate and undergraduate economics programs, executive MBA programs, and graduate courses for business statistics) and will also be an ideal resource for the students' professional careers.
