1. Compute a new variable called “DEVIATION”for only the female employees, by using the following
formula:

DEVIATION=(CUR-BEG)/ED

2. (i) Sort the variable BEG in ascending order.

(ii) Tabulate the values of the mean, standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis of the BEG variable, only
for those employees who belong to the minority community.

3. Recode the EXP variable into a different variable called “EXP_CAT” and label it with the phrase:
“Experience Category”. Use the following information to do so:

Experienc
EXP
e Category

Less than 24 Fresher

25 to 60 Trainee

61 to 120 Supervisor

121 to 180 Expert

More than 180 Senior

4. Draw a box plot with the boxes representing the variable ED, and assign a suitable title to your chart.

5. Obtain the linear regression analysis for the independent variable ED with the dependent variable CUR.
