1.10.1 InstallingExcelAddInsforPHStat2

The Prentice Hall PHStat Microsoft Excel addin enhances Microsoft Excel to better support the
statisticalanalysestaughtinanintroductorystatisticscourse.UsingPHStatlessensthetechnicaltraining
needed to use Microsoft Excel to perform statistical analysis and allows you to generate results that
wouldotherwisebeverytediousorimpossibletoproducefromworksheetsbuiltfromscratch.PHStat
requiresthatDataAnalysisisinstalledonEXCELandthefollowingsystemrequirements:

AnyWindows95(orlater)system;MicrosoftExcel95orMicrosoftExcel97(orlater)
32 MB of main memory; 64 MB required when running sampling distribution simulations and
dataintensive regression analyses; approximately 5 MB hard disk free space during setup
processand3MBharddiskspaceafterinstallation.

approximately normally. For this reason, the normal distribution is used throughout statistics, natural
science,andsocialscienceasasimplemodelforcomplexphenomena.Forexample,theobservational
error in an experiment is usually assumed to follow a normal distribution, and the propagation of
uncertaintyiscomputedusingthisassumption.

where X is a normal random variable, is the mean, is the standard deviation, is


approximately 3.14159, and e is approximately 2.71828.

4.1.1.2 ProbabilityandtheNormalCurve

The normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution. This has several implications for
probability.

Thetotalareaunderthenormalcurveisequalto1.
TheprobabilitythatanormalrandomvariableXequalsanyparticularvalueis0.
TheprobabilitythatXisgreaterthanaequalstheareaunderthenormalcurveboundedbya

TheStandardizedNormalProbabilityDensityFunctionisgivenbyequation:

Additionally, every normal curve (regardless of its mean or standard deviation) conforms to the
following"rule".

About68%oftheareaunderthecurvefallswithin1standarddeviationofthemean.
About95%oftheareaunderthecurvefallswithin2standarddeviationsofthemean.
About99.7%oftheareaunderthecurvefallswithin3standarddeviationsofthemean.

We can conclude with 95% confidence that the mean breaking force required for the population of
insulator is between 1689.96 an d 1756.84 pounds. The validity of this confidence interval estimate
dependsontheassumptionthattheforcerequiredisnormallydistributed.Ifthesamplenumberislarge
than we can slightly loosen this assumption. Thus, with a sample of 30, we can use the t distribution
even distribution is slightly left skewed (see. Probability Plot or boxand whisker plot). Thus, the t

RegressionAnalysis

8.1 SimpleRegressionAnalysis
The field of econometrics uses regression analysis to create quantitative models that can be used to
predict the value of a series if one knows the value of several other variables.

It is assumed that the error u is independent with constant variance (homoskedastic) - see

We wish to estimate the regression line:

y = b1 + b2 x2 + b3 x3

We do this using the Data analysis Add-in and Regression.

The only change over one-variable regression is to include more than one column in the
Input X Range.
Note, however, that the regressors need to be in contiguous columns (here columns B and
C).
If this is not the case in the original data, then columns need to be copied to get the
regressors in contiguous columns.
Hitting OK we obtain

The above gives the overall goodness-of-fit measures:


R2 = 0.8025
Correlation between y and y-hat is 0.8958 (when squared gives 0.8025).
Adjusted R2 = R2 - (1-R2 )*(k-1)/(n-k) = .8025 - .1975*2/2 = 0.6050.
The standard error here refers to the estimated standard deviation of the error term u.
It is sometimes called the standard error of the regression. It equals sqrt(SSE/(n-k)).
It is not to be confused with the standard error of y itself (from descriptive statistics) or
with the standard errors of the regression coefficients given below.
ARDBUSINESSSTATISTICS08

Page113of131

R2 = 0.8025 means that 80.25% of the variation of yi around ybar (its mean) is explained
by the regressors x2i and x3i.

The ANOVA (analysis of variance) table splits the sum of squares into its components.
Total sums of squares
= Residual (or error) sum of squares + Regression (or explained) sum of squares.
Thus i (yi - ybar)2 = i (yi - yhati)2 + i (yhati - ybar)2
where yhati is the value of yi predicted from the regression line
and ybar is the sample mean of y.
For example:
R2 = 1 - Residual SS / Total SS (general formula for R2)
= 1 - 0.3950 / 1.6050
(from data in the ANOVA table)
= 0.8025
(which equals R2 given in the regression Statistics table).
The column labeled F gives the overall F-test of H0: 2 = 0 and 3 = 0 versus Ha: at least
one of 2 and 3 does not equal zero.
Aside: Excel computes F this as:
F = [Regression SS/(k-1)] / [Residual SS/(n-k)] = [1.6050/2] / [.39498/2] = 4.0635.
The column labeled significance F has the associated P-value.
Since 0.1975 > 0.05, we do not reject H0 at signficance level 0.05.
Note: Significance F in general = FINV(F, k-1, n-k) where k is the number of regressors
including hte intercept.
Here FINV(4.0635,2,2) = 0.1975.

9.6 TESTHYPOTHESISOFZEROSLOPECOEFFICIENT("TESTOFSTATISTICAL
SIGNIFICANCE")
The coefficient of HH SIZE has estimated standard error of 0.4227, t-statistic of 0.7960
and p-value of 0.5095.
It is therefore statistically insignificant at significance level = .05 as p > 0.05.
The coefficient of CUBED HH SIZE has estimated standard error of 0.0131, t-statistic of
0.1594 and p-value of 0.8880.
It is therefore statistically insignificant at significance level = .05 as p > 0.05.
There are 5 observations and 3 regressors (intercept and x) so we use t(5-3)=t(2).
For example, for HH SIZE p = =TDIST(0.796,2,2) = 0.5095.

9.7 TESTHYPOTHESISONAREGRESSIONPARAMETER
Here we test whether HH SIZE has coefficient 2 = 1.0.
Example: H0: 2 = 1.0 against Ha: 2 1.0 at significance level = .05.
Then
t = (b2 - H0 value of 2) / (standard error of b2 )
= (0.33647 - 1.0) / 0.42270
= -1.569.

We test H0: 2 = 0 and 3 = 0 versus Ha: at least one of 2 and 3 does not equal zero.
ARDBUSINESSSTATISTICS08

Page116of131

From the ANOVA table the F-test statistic is 4.0635 with p-value of 0.1975.
Since the p-value is not less than 0.05 we do not reject the null hypothesis that the
regression parameters are zero at significance level 0.05.
Conclude that the parameters are jointly statistically insignificant at significance level 0.05.
Note: Significance F in general = FINV(F, k-1, n-k) where k is the number of regressors
including hte intercept.
Here FINV(4.0635,2,2) = 0.1975.

9.9 PREDICTEDVALUEOFYGIVENREGRESSORS
Consider case where x = 4 in which case CUBED HH SIZE = x^3 = 4^3 = 64.
= b1 + b2 x2 + b3 x3 = 0.88966 + 0.33654 + 0.002164 = 2.37006

9.10 EXCELLIMITATIONS

Excel restricts the number of regressors (only up to 16 regressors).

Excel requires that all the regressor variables be in adjoining columns. You may
need to move columns to ensure this. e.g. If the regressors are in columns B and D
you need to copy at least one of columns B and D so that they are adjacent to each
other.
Excel standard errors and t-statistics and p-values are based on the assumption that
the error is independent with constant variance (homoskedastic).
Excel does not provide alternaties, such asheteroskedastic-robust or
autocorrelation-robust standard errors and t-statistics and p-values

10 TimeSeriesForecasting
TimeSeriesanalysishastwomaingoals:
*Identifyingthenatureofasequenceofobservations.
*Predictingfuturevaluesusinghistoricalobservations(alsoknownasforecasting).
In Time Series analysis, it is assumed that the data consists of a systematic pattern, and also random
noise that makes the pattern difficult to identify. Most time series analysis techniques use filtering to
remove the data noise. There are two general components of Time series patterns: Trend and
Seasonality.Thetrendisalinearornonlinearcomponent,anddoesnotrepeatwithinthetimerange.
TheSeasonalityrepeatsitselfinsystematicintervalsovertime.Thesetwocomponentsareoftenboth

TrendAnalysis
Trendanalysisisatechniqueused toidentifyatrendcomponentintimeseriesdata.Inmany
cases data can be approximated by a linear function, but logarithmic, exponential, and

Forecasting and extrapolation from present values to future values is not a function of regression
analysis. To predict the future, time series analysis is used. To predict values it is necessary to find a
predictive function that will minimize the sum of distances between each of the points, and the
predictive function itself. The leastsquares method is the most common function amongst the
