INTRODUCTION
1 – Background :
Statistics in the business application is the performance of statistics probability theory to the
realistic business environment in order to serve purposes such as collection - data processing,
sample surveys, studies the relationship between phenomena, predict and help the CEO decision-
making within the specific business scene. As we all know in statistics business, it includes
descriptive statistics and statistical inference. Actually, in limited of this article, I only apply
statistical inference to solve problems specific topic request.
2 - Purpose
Applying statistical theory to solve exercises 2.2, 5.16 and 8.3 of the textbook. Since then draw the
lessons of experience and practical help for the operation of Son Trang Ly Limited Company.
3 - Progress
This report is realized bases upon below steps :
i. Understand and gather information
ii. Calculated and solve the Regression Equation
iii. Applied Excel and SPSS version 17
iv. Applied the Estimation Theory in Statistic
v. Draw the plots

Exercise 5.16 The consumer rate of a local product at district A is 60%. After the marketing
campaign believed that the rate has increased. To test this idea, we randomly interviewed 400
people and has 250 consumers found that product category. With the 0.05 significant make
meaningful conclusions about the comments above.
Solve
The rate of customer consumption of products before advertising campaign is: p0 = 60% = 0.6
The rate of customer consumption of products after the advertising campaign : p
Set theory: H0 : p = p0 = 0.6
H1 : p ˃ p0
After implementation of advertising campaigns, the amount consumers are: p* = 250/400 = 0.625
= 62.5%
From above equation :
In other hand :
Comments : Because that we accept the theory H0: p = p0 = 0.6, it means after the
advertising campaign that the percentage of customers used the product is less than or equal before
advertising campaign. Thus, the advertising campaign is a failure in district A because after doing
the advertisng campaign that the rate of customer consumption would not rise as expected and tends
to decrease (significant at 5%).
Exercise 8.3 The following data is the number of readers of a local newspaper (thousand person):
Year : 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007
Readers : 53 65 74 85 92 105 120 128 144 158 179 195
Made a Least-Squares Trend Function and forecasts the total readers in 2008 and 2009 with 95%
confident interval.

I have graphs show audience of the newspaper in 12 years from 1996 to 2007 as follows:
As the graph represented by the function y t above, we easily see t and y is a linear relationship.
Applied Linear-Trend model for with variables y and t, we get :

(với n=12)
From equation above, we can rewrite the regression Linear-trend model as below :
Comment 1 : annual average of the local newspaper has a constant readership of 34,818 people and
tends to increase a fort of the year which is 12,566 people online. Thus, each year the local
newspaper have got over 12,566 more readers and a pretty big audience.
From regression equation above, we can forecasts the readers in year 2008 and year 2009 as :
Comment 2 : I predicted that the newspaper will have 198,182 readers in 2008 and 210,748
readers in 2009.
Applied Excel 2007 for solving regression Linear-trend equation (set Data Data Analysis
Regression chọn Confidence Level = 95% to identify the confident interval of 95%)

As the Excel data presented above, by 2007 the linear regression equation is the audience of about
185.615 people, nearly 9.500 lower than the actual person. Because this is a local newspaper within
increasing readership about of 12.566 every year, so the error of the linear regression equation is too
large for practica. It does not satisfy the necessary elements and integrity of data. As calculated in
2007, then perhaps the local newspaper can be a severe loss not fully meet the needs readers and
customers will turn to the competitors of that paper to buy other newspapers. Thus, local newspaper
can lose audience and gradually narrow the market until the dissolution or closure.
Applied the ability to graph illustrating of the SPSS 17 that is one form of graphs showing the
distribution of medical standards y by t:
From the graph above, we easily see that the Quadratic-Trend model which standard distribution
approaches to y values. From that view points, I concludes that distribution of is a Quadratic-
Trend model.

From above equation as well as solution of SPSS 17, we can write the Quadratic-Trend equation as:
Applied above equation to forecast the readers in three years 2007,2008 and 2009:

Comments : easily see the trends on the quadratic distribution function that we obtain more
accurate data on the audience in the local newspaper. As the equation shows normal distribution,
the newspaper audience has a 48,636 average each year and tended to increase more linearly 6,644
audiences and concurrently around of 456 extra readers. In 2008, the number of newspaper readers
can be achieved 231,028 readers and it will be 212,072 people in 2009.
