You are required to read and explore the case study and the data provided to you in order to prepare a
simple statistical report. Statistical report is an organised synthesis of data that span a whole array of
forms going from tables of numbers, measures to a text summarising the findings. Statistical reports are
particularly interesting because the readers can be overwhelmed by the huge amounts of information in
raw format, and without an appropriate preliminary statistical analysis is difficult to make the important
points stand out. Graphical display of data and text (explanations / interpretations) are two different yet
powerful media that have to be well integrated in your report in order to achieve full potential. The
assignment consists of questions and/or data related to a simulated real world business case, which will
cover the subject materials from weeks 1 to 3. Students need to analyse the case using appropriate
statistical methods and tests in response to the questions in the case study using MS Excel data analysis
tools.
The report must be typed in Microsoft Word format. The word limit is 1000 words (excluding tables, and
figures) and students must strictly adhere to this word limit. Report must be typed in 12 point Time New
Roman font, double spaced and 2.5 cm margins. Insert tables and graphical displays of your data
analysis in the text where appropriate. Use bullet points sparingly. Tables and diagrams must be
correctly labelled, numbered and sourced, and accompanied by a brief explanation highlighting the
main points or implications. You may include any additional (supporting) information in the appendices
at the end of the assessment item. Information in the appendices should only be included if it is referred
to in the body of the assignment. In terms of submission, report in either Microsoft Word or PDF format
is accepted
