The dataset ToyotaCorrola.xls contains data used on used cars for sale during the late summer of 2004 in the Neverlands. It has 1436 records containing details on 38 attributes, including Price, Age, Kilometers, HP, and other specifications.

  1. Explore the data using the data visualization of XLMiner. Which of the pairs among the variables seem to be correlated?

We plan to analyze the data using various data mining techniques described in future chapters. Prepare the data for use as follows.

  1. The dataset has two categorial attributes, Fuel Type and Metallic. Describe how you would convert these to binary variables. Confirm this using XLMiner’s utility to transform categorical data into dummies.
  2. Prepare the dataset for data mining techniques of supervised learning by creating partitions using XLMiner’s data partitioning utility. Select all the variables and use default values for the random seed and partitioning percentages for training (50%), validation (30%), and test (20%) sets. Describe the roles these partitions play in modeling.

 In Assignment 1, you have defined key portions of your project. Now, it is time to develop a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), and project schedule for your project. Note: Please use the project from Assignment 1 to complete this assignment, which requires that you develop a WBS & Project Schedule for your project.

This assignment requires you to:

  1. Create a WBS for your project using the proper format (MS Word, MS Excel, Visio, or any other applicable format) to depict WBS graphically (see Figure 4.4 from Chapter 4 of the Larsen textbook). Alternatively, you may use a coded format using MS Word (See Exhibit 4.1 from Chapter 4 of the Larson textbook as an example. The example is in MS Project format but the same could be done in MS Excel).
  2. Create a project schedule that lists all of the core activities, dates (start & finish), and resources to complete your project. While it is recommended that you use MS Project, you can use MS Excel to create your schedule. Your project schedule must contain at least 30 separate activities/tasks.
  3. The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are: 
  • Develop a project plan including the critical elements of project scope, priorities, Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), and communication plan.
  • Develop a project network to implement the project plan, manage projects effectively, and complete required resource reallocation.

This Case asks you to begin your strategic analysis of Pepsico by evaluating the company’s mission, vision, values, and goals. observe the following procedure:

  • Step 1: Visit the official website of Pepsico and identify the company’s vision, mission, values, and goals. (Hint: You will need to do some exploring and a certain amount of speculation—as the terms “vision” and “mission” (and sometimes even the term “company goals”) are used interchangeably. Explore the “Who We Are” and “Investors” (and other) links. Also, be sure that you look closely at the most recent Annual Reports.
  • Step 2: Critically evaluate the mission, vision, values, and goals (again, you will likely need to make decisions as to which is which). Use the criteria in the background materials to support your assessment of the quality of the company’s mission, vision, values, and goals.
  • Step 3: Determine which (if any) of the elements consider the goals and needs of specific stakeholder groups. Write down any examples.
  • Step 4: Consider what changes are needed to improve the vision statement, the mission statement, the statement of company values, and the company’s objectives and goals.

During a 12-hour period, the tides in one area of the Bay of Fundy cause the water level to rise to 6 m above average sea level and to fall 6 m below average sea level. The depth of the water at low tide is 2 m as measured against a pier. Suppose the water is at average sea level (rest position) at 0:00 hours (midnight) and the tide is coming in. Provide and explain a graph that shows the height of the tide over a 24-hour period, then provide the equation of the Sine Wave that represents the change in the height of the tide and then provide the equation of the Sine Wave that represents a situation in which the water is at average sea level at 03:00 (3 a.m.) instead of at midnight and the tide is coming in.
