Title overview

For courses in Introductory Business Statistics.

Real data. Real decisions. Real business.

Statistics for Business and Economics by McClave, Benson,and Sincich introduces statistics in the context of contemporary business. Inference is emphasized, with extensive coverage of data collection and analysis as needed to evaluate the reported results of statistical studies and make good decisions. The authors apply concepts with real data. Technology is used to help students develop statistical thinking and understand the assessment of credibility and the value of the inferences made from data — both by those who consume and by those who produce them. The 14th Edition continues to highlight the discussion of ethical, data driven decision making.
