Title overview

Basic Business Statistics makes statistics understandable by exploring concepts in the context of specific business problems and situations. In line with the ASA's Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction (GAISE), the authors emphasize interpretation, analysis and communication of statistical results using several data analysis tools. Examples are drawn from various functional areas of business, giving you ample practice in applying statistics to business decision making. Examples and instructions for using data analysis tools such as Microsoft® Excel®, JMP®, Minitab® and Tableau® are integrated throughout.
