- Primary data are expensive and time consuming.
- Extra precautions are not required.
- Explain the concept of correlation and regression.
Answer: Regression analysis involves identifying the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. A model of the relationship is hypothesized, and estimates of the parameter values are used to develop an estimated regression equation. Various tests are then employed to determine if the model is satisfactory. If the model is deemed satisfactory, the estimated regression equation can be used to predict the value of the dependent variable given values for the independent variables.
Q3. Describe the meaning of Index numbers. Explain the different methods of construction of index numbers.
