Variation Reports Samples For Students

Introduction

Our supermarket chain sells “regular” and “lite” variety of two brands of soda X and Y. At any given time and at any store, each brand of soda can potentially have either no promotion whatsoever or a “price promotion” and/or an “in-store promotion”. We are to prepare a business report on our product’s current pricing structure and proposed pricing mechanism aimed at increasing profitability of your product line.

Discussion

In the pivot table, we can infer that when the Lite brand of X used in-store promotion, the Lite brand of Y chose not to have the in store promotion (83% compared ...

Comparison of sales volumes

The mean is the average of values in a given set of data. In this case, the average sales volume gives the average volume of sales for each salesperson over the six week period. The means can be used to compare the sales volumes of the four salespersons and rank them. The mean is obtained by getting the sum of the volume of sales for all the six weeks then dividing by the number of weeks under consideration.

Determination of the mean volume of sales

Mean volume of sales = Total sales/6 weeks
Salesperson A = (1774 + 1808 + 1890 + 1932 + 1855 + 1726)/6
= 10985/6
= 1830.83
Salesperson B = (2205 + ...

Average (mean) trees diameter

The difference between the diameter of Doghair Thicket and semi-restored is as a result of difference in the elasticity of the stem tissues. It means that on the experiment the tissues of Doghair thicket were more as compared to semi restore. It therefore recorded a high average. On other experiment, the data collected indicates that the semi- restored has high average. This implies that semi-restored has more stem tissues which facilitate or rather enhances its variation in diameter. Another major factor that determine the stem-diameter of the stems of the Doghair thicket and the semi-restored includes the contented of water present ...

Abstract page

Variation in temperature can have an extremely overwhelming effect on the body function and physiological process that also include performance on many ectotherms like Acheta domesticus. Most of these insects often appear to be sensitive to this seemingly symbiotic relationship to escape the various dangers that lurk around in their habitats. For Achata domesticus, lower body temperatures might mean a more restricted movement than when at temperatures that are high. With the aim to understand the difference in locomotive behavior of A.domesticus to variation in the levels of temperature, an experiment was carried out on a specimen of 10-crickets, ...

Quantitative Methods

Holding period return
Holding period return is the total returns received from holding a particular investment portfolio of assets. The holding period return rate usually calculated as the total sum of all income and capital gains of the investments divided by the investment value at the beginning of the trading period being measured (Hallerbach, 2003). It is a very basic way used to measure the rate of return obtained from a particular investment. Therefore, its calculation is based on a unit-value-invested rather than on a time basis. This, however, makes it difficult to provide a comparison of returns on different investments with also different ...

Analysis of Water Quality from the Rivers Colne, Holme and Calder Flowing through Huddersfield/Mirfield

Introduction

It is a truism that water is a valuable resource. Rivers are among the major suppliers of freshwater resources for humans and other terrestrial organisms. Thus, without rivers humans could not have survived. The importance of river systems has been elucidated even during the rise of the Egyptian Civilization. The Nile River for instance has provided humans with food, drink, fertile soil and even a site for settlement (Hassan and Al Rasheedy, 2007). The ecosystem services that the river provide to people since time immemorial include water supply ...

Administrative modification, powered by an extension of information technology, may have underwrote to the erosion of the previously established relationship between company size and the quantitative investment appraisal criteria selected. Seemingly, companies are by means of utilizing more methods composed, while the use of the more urbane discounted cash flow. However, systems are sophisticated, and that use of the less hypothetically sound accounting rate of return technique seems to be reduced, than aforementioned studies would have recommended of businesses .
Consequently, accounting modification may result from procedures ascending within an organization in which it is operational, while as of ...

Traditional responses of corporate strategy, hierarchical structures and control systems are among the major factors that inhibit the flexibility of a company, its ability to take up new opportunities and thrive in the ever changing external relationships. Mainly, these factors are caused by organizational similarity. Organizations need to be legitimate. Most of their behavioral and structural aspects are targeted towards environmental acceptance rather than internal organization similarity. Hence, most organizations tend to be similar, adopting traditional business practices. The success of companies is mainly determined by their flexibility to changing needs, new opportunities and the ability to create new ...

Summary

This experiment is about the static calibration of a differential pressure transducer. Test measurements are done to find the range of input and output of the transducer, and to determine the “best-fit” line that models how the voltage reading would equate to the real pressure measurement. The input pressure comes from a hydraulic ram with pressure gauge. The output of the differential pressure transducer is in voltage, and is measured by a digital voltmeter. The input pressure is varied from 0 to 6 bar, and the three voltage readings are recorded for each pressure step value.

Considering the effects of cover crop and intercropping on garden settings

1. Introduction
1.1 Background
Sustainable agricultural production systems, otherwise known as agroecosystems, employ a variety of techniques to maintain environmental quality. Cover crops are one strategy used by growers to preserve and enhance soil resources because of their impacts on soil-nutrient dynamics (such as nitrogen and carbon fixation)and microbiological functions (Steenworth and Belina, 2008). Cover crops such as cereal grass, hairy vetch, and oilseed radish, manage problems in an agroecosystem such as soil quality, erosion and fertility, water quality, pests and weeds because they tend to be less resource intensive than other crops and instead contribute to ...
