  • Title: “Optimizing Inventory Audits: Finding the Right Balance between Accuracy and Efficiency” Introduction: Inventory management is a critical aspect of any business, as it directly impacts the company’s profitability and customer satisfaction. A key component of inventory management

    I require a paper that outlines the exact numbers of minimum inventory required to be checked in order to be confident of the inventory. I would like this for 2 different scenarios. One is a quick rolling audit check that can be done without shuting down a facility and another longer one where work would be stopped for a certain amount of time. I require formulas to input the number of items at a specifc facility in order to know the minimum number of items to check. Additional I would like 2 or 3 different thresholds. What I mean is I want different levels of confidence in the numbers. I would like one formiula for how businesses normally do rolling inventory checks, and I would like other stricter numbers in case the people in charge want a higher level of security. Please explain the difference in the confidence levels in the paper. 
    The facilities number of items can range from 100 different SKUs to 2,000 different SKUs. I need a paper that shows the level of low count inventory audits but I also need to cover my bases and give an option for higher confidence counts. The supervisors need to be convinced that you don’t need to count 100% of all items in order to have a high confindece that inventory is being accurately kept. Please write the paper as if you are communicating with people with limited business knowledge who think the more you count, the better.
    Please quote established business practice references to estblish credibility.

  • “Hypothesis Testing for Regional Housing Market” Title: Hypothesis Testing and Confidence Intervals for Regional Home Square Footage

    Competency
    In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competency:
    Apply statistical techniques to address research problems
    Perform hypothesis testing to address an authentic problem
    Overview
    In this project, you will apply inference methods for means to test your hypotheses about the housing sales market for a region of the United States. You will use appropriate sampling and statistical methods.
    Scenario
    You have been hired by your regional real estate company to determine if your region’s housing prices and housing square footage are significantly different from those of the national market. The regional sales director has three questions that they want to see addressed in the report:
    Are housing prices in your regional market lower than the national market average?
    Is the square footage for homes in your region different than the average square footage for homes in the national market?
    For your region, what is the range of values for the 95% confidence interval of square footage for homes in your market?
    You are given a real estate data set that has houses listed for every county in the United States. In addition, you have been given national statistics and graphs that show the national averages for housing prices and square footage. Your job is to analyze the data, complete the statistical analyses, and provide a report to the regional sales director. You will do so by completing the Project Two Template located in the What to Submit area below.
    Directions
    Introduction
    Region: Start by picking one region from the following list of regions:
    West South Central, West North Central, East South Central, East North Central, Mid Atlantic

    Sample: Define your sample. Take a random sample of 500 house sales for your region.
    Describe what is included in your sample (i.e., states, region, years or months).
    Questions and type of test: For your selected sample, define two hypothesis questions (see the Scenario above) and the appropriate type of test for each. Address the following for each hypothesis:
    Describe the population parameter for the variable you are analyzing.
    Describe your hypothesis in your own words.
    Identify the hypothesis test you will use (1-Tail or 2-Tail).
    Level of confidence: Discuss how you will use estimation and confidence intervals to help you solve the problem
    1-Tail Test
    Hypothesis: Define your hypothesis.
    Define the population parameter.
    Write null (Ho) and alternative (Ha) hypotheses. Note: For means, define a hypothesis that is less than the population parameter.

    Data analysis: Summarize your sample data using appropriate graphical displays and summary statistics and confirm assumptions have not been violated to complete this hypothesis test.
    Provide at least one histogram of your sample data.
    In a table, provide summary statistics including sample size, mean, median, and standard deviation. Note: For quartiles 1 and 3, use the quartile function in Excel:
    =QUARTILE([data range], [quartile number])
    Summarize your sample data, describing the center, spread, and shape in comparison to the national information (under Supporting Materials, see the National Summary Statistics and Graphs House Listing Price by Region PDF). Note: For shape, think about the distribution: skewed or symmetric.
    Check the conditions.
    Determine if the normal condition has been met.
    Determine if there are any other conditions that you should check and whether they have been met. Note: Think about the central limit theorem and sampling methods.
    Hypothesis test calculations: Complete hypothesis test calculations.
    Calculate the hypothesis statistics.
    Determine the appropriate test statistic (t). Note: This calculation is (mean – target)/standard error. In this case, the mean is your regional mean, and the target is the national mean.
    Calculate the probability (p value). Note: This calculation is done with the T.DIST function in Excel:
    =T.DIST([test statistic], [degree of freedom], True) The degree of freedom is calculated by subtracting 1 from your sample size.
    Interpretation: Interpret your hypothesis test results using the p value method to reject or not reject the null hypothesis.
    Relate the p value and significance level.
    Make the correct decision (reject or fail to reject).
    Provide a conclusion in the context of your hypothesis.
    2-Tail Test
    Hypotheses: Define your hypothesis.
    Define the population parameter.
    Write null and alternative hypotheses. Note: For means, define a hypothesis that is not equal to the population parameter.
    State your significance level.

    Hypothesis test calculations: Complete hypothesis test calculations.
    Calculate the hypothesis statistics.
    Determine the appropriate test statistic (t). Note: This calculation is (mean – target)/standard error. In this case, the mean is your regional mean, and the target is the national mean.]
    Determine the probability (p value). Note: This calculation is done with the TDIST.2T function in Excel:
    =T.DIST.2T([test statistic], [degree of freedom]) The degree of freedom is calculated by subtracting 1 from your sample size.
    Interpretation: Interpret your hypothesis test results using the p value method to reject or not reject the null hypothesis.
    Compare the p value and significance level.
    Make the correct decision (reject or fail to reject).
    Provide a conclusion in the context of your hypothesis.
    Comparison of the test results: Revisit Question 3 from the Scenario section: For your region, what is the range of values for the 95% confidence interval of square footage for homes?
    Calculate and report the 95% confidence interval. Show or describe your method of calculation.

  • “The History of Beekeeping: Insights from Archaeological Evidence”

    I have attached the Guideline and outline.
    Please eusure that the same topic and outline are used.
    This is for an Archeology class so must focus on using archaeological evidence.
    Have to use two main sources
    1.https://www.researchgate.net/publication/358672712_Palynological_Insights_into_the_Ecology_and_Economy_of_Ancient_Bee-Products_A_Contribution_to_the_History_of_Beekeeping

  • Title: The Impact of Civil Rights on Police Reform: A Cause-and-Effect Analysis of the George Floyd Protests

    Current political events should be chosen from a reputable and neutral news source such as the Associated Press (AP), Reuters, NPR, PBS, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, ABC, Wichita Eagle, or The Sunflower. If you have a question about what constitutes a reputable and neutral news source check this website or send me an email (Note: local news sources are generally considered reputable and neutral).
    You must identify a current event related to the topic for the week.
    Week 3: Civil Rights or Civil Liberties
    Each memo should be a cause-and-effect analysis. In other words, the current event you choose should be the outcome (or effect) of the week’s topic, or vice versa. In the attached example, trust in government (a concept examined in Week 1) is discussed in the context of voter registration. The argument presented is that difficulties in voter registration caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has further eroded citizens’ trust in government and is detrimental to representative democracy.
    Each memo should be 250-300 words and posted in the designated discussion board. You must provide a citation for the news source you choose, but citing the course material is not necessary.
    A couple of tips:
    Be creative. This is an opportunity for you to show that you understand the course material, so feel free to have some fun with it.
    Make direct connections. Be explicit about why the event you choose is related to the week’s topic.
    Keep events current. Events are not current if they are more than 30 days old.
    Choose a current event you care about. Your writing will always be better if you have a personal connection to the topic.
    View the example attached above.
