Q-1a) Formulate the null hypotheses to check whether the new models are
performing as per the desired design specifications.

For Rocinante36: For Marengo32:

Mileage HO : 22KM/LITRE Mileage HO : 15KM/LITRE

Top speed HO : 140KM/HR Top speed HO : 210KM/HR


Q-1b) Formulate the alternate hypotheses to check whether the new models are
performing as per the desired design specifications.

For Rocinante36: For Marengo32:

Mileage H1 : <22 and >22 Mileage H1 : <15 and


KM/LITRE >15KM/LITRE

Top speed H1 : <140 and >140 Top speed H1 : <210 and >210
KM/HR KM/HR

An alternative hypothesis of < 22 An alternative hypothesis of < 15


km/litre or < 140 km/hr is km/litre or < 210 km/hr is
appropriate since lower than that appropriate since lower than that
is a problem but a higher figure is is a problem but a higher figure is
not not
Q-2) In order to comment on whether the design specifications are being
matched or not, perform relevant hypothesis tests and calculate the p-value for
each. What will you conclude? Assume you are performing the tests at 95%
confidence level.
For Rocinante36: Conclusion

p-value for mileage = 0.9589 The p-value is greater than


significance level 0.05, so we
p-value for top speed = 0.1658 can continue to believe in our
null hypothesis and fail to
For Marengo32: reject it.

p-value for mileage = 0.0671


p-value for top speed = 0.1865
Q-3) You have learnt about the possible errors that might result from the
hypothesis tests. What type of error is more expensive for Random motors
based on the hypothesis they are testing? Why? Assume that you need to
refund all your customers if your cars deviate from specifications.
The type of error which is more Reason:
expensive:
H0 : mileage = 22 km/litre
H1 : mileage < 22 km/litre
A type 1 error is committed when you reject Reject the null hypothesis and go with
a null hypothesis that is actually true. alternative
A type 2 error is committed when you fail to hypothesis i.e. mileage < 22 km/litre when
reject a null hypothesis that is actually false. actually it is more than than
In the present case, a type 2 error would be Do not reject null hypothesis and go with null
more expensive for Random Motors.. hypothesis i.e. mileage greater than or equal
to
22 km/litre but actually it is less
Q-4) Develop a regression equation for each model at 95 percent confidence
level. From the regression equation predict the sales of the two models.
Develop the regression equation for the Develop the regression equation for the
Rocinante models and Predict the number Marengo models and Predict the number of
of unit sales of Rocinante36 model? unit sales of Marengo32 model?

Predicted Sales(in units): 225,297.07 Predicted Sales(in units): 25,884.37


Q-5) Based on sales prediction, what is the overall predicted profit for
Rocinante36 model and Marengo32 model ?

Overall predicted profit

Rocinante36 Model: INR 225,297.07 in Lakhs

Marengo32 Model: INR 207,074.94 in Lakhs


Q-6) As a CEO, you wish to invest only in the model which is predicted to be
more profitable. Which model among Rocinante36 and Marengo32 will you
invest in?

Which model you will invest in?

I will invest in Rocinante36 Model.


In view of the regression analysis, total profit in Rocinante36 Model is INR 18,222 Lakhs
higher than that of the Marengo32 Mode
Q-7) Now you must have derived the regression equation for both models, Rocinante and
Marengo. Now if you increase the price of Rocinante36 and Marengo32 by 1 lac rupees
each, which car will have a higher impact on the sales due to increase in price? Give proper
logic for your answer. You can consider that all other specifications such as mileage and top
speed remain the same for both models.

Which car is most affected by a price increase? Why?

The car with the most affected by price increase is Rocinante36 Model.
Since the price has increased by INR One (1) lakh but the cost remains the same,
the total revenue earned by Rocinante36 Model is significantly higher than that of
the Marengo32 Model as can be seen below.
Q-8) After developing the regression equation for both models (Rocinante and Marengo), if you
analyse the p values for coefficients in the regression results, you will notice that some of the
regression variables (top speed, mileage and price) are insignificant. Remove the insignificant
regression variables from your selection and rebuild the regression model using only significant
variables. Compare the Adjusted R square value for the new and old regression model. Do you
notice any change in Adjusted R square value? If yes, explain the reason for the change.

Is there a change on Adjusted R square Value? If so, Why?

In Rocinante26 after removing the insignificant variable i.e Top Speed, the Adjusted R
Square changes from 0.995356039 to 0.995447556. It shows a very small difference,
which is negligible.
 
In Marengo32 after removing the insignificant variable i.e Mileage, the Adjusted R Square
changes from 0..84787522 to 0.853091209. It shows a huge difference which means that
we need to work on Mileage.
