Based on the descriptive statistics, for the significant predictors, what city has the best potential?

In the Excel document, you will find the 2018 data for 17 cities in the data set Cost of Living. Included are the 2018 cost of living index, cost of a 3-bedroom apartment (per month), price of monthly transportation pass, price of a mid-range bottle of wine, price of a loaf of bread (1 lb.), the price of a gallon of milk and price for a 12 oz. cup of black coffee.  All prices are in U.S. dollars. You use this information to run a Multiple Linear Regression to predict Cost of living, along with calculating various descriptive statistics.  This is given in the Excel output (that is, the MLR has already been calculated.  Your task is to interpret the data).  Based on this information, in which city should you open a second office in?  You must justify your answer.  If you want to recommend 2 or 3 different cities and rank them based on the data and your findings, this is fine as well.    Deliverable Requirements: This should be ¾ to 1 page, no more than 1 single-spaced page in length, using 12-point Times New Roman font.  You do not need to do any calculations, but you do need to pick a city to open a second location at and justify your answer based upon the provided results of the Multiple Linear Regression.  The format of this assignment will be an Executive Summary.  Think of this assignment as the first page of a much longer report, known as an Executive Summary, that essentially summarizes your findings briefly and at a high level.  This needs to be written up neatly and professionally.  This would be something you would present at a board meeting in a corporate environment.  If you are unsure of an Executive Summary, this resource can help with an overview. Things to Consider: To help you make this decision here are some things to consider: Based on the MLR output, what variable(s) is/are significant?  From the significant predictors, review the mean, median, min, max, Q1 and Q3 values?  It might be a good idea to compare these values to what the New York value is for that variable.  Remember New York is the baseline as that is where headquarters are located. Based on the descriptive statistics, for the significant predictors, what city has the best potential?  What city or cities fall are below the median?  What city or cities are in the upper 3rd quartile?

What are the rights and responsibilities of Sal, Val, and Hal?

Whose Intellectual Property? Sal is a graduate research assistant in a laboratory involved in developing an innovative technology that is of significant commercial interest. Sal is working on this cutting-edge research with two other graduate students, Hal and Val. They are working under the guidance of Professor Love, who has funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and an industrial sponsor. Although the research has yet to reach a stage where it might be commercially viable, the industrial sponsor wishes to be the first company to capitalize on this technology when the research has reached such a stage. The National Science Foundation’s interest in sponsoring this project is based on the fact that the project offers a rare opportunity to advance scientific knowledge in an entirely new area. Sal and his fellow students, Hal and Val, were originally attracted to this project because of the opportunity to be at the forefront of research. Each of them is especially enthusiastic about their work in the laboratory as new discoveries are being made. Professor Love has been very supportive and has provided good guidance on the project. Professor Love stresses the educational value of such an opportunity and is especially pleased with the enthusiasm that the graduate students exhibit. Sal, Hal, and Val are close friends and they each work on areas of the research that complement one another. They are nearing graduation (to within a semester or two of each other). One Friday evening when they were having their weekly after-work get-together, the topic of discussion turned to matters concerning their professional goals. They decided that they would like to work together and set up a company of their own. What could be a better opportunity for a group of graduate students who work well together than to stay together, and go on in business? Being engrossed in their research, they can only think of setting up a business that would bring their present research to fruition and into the commercial realm. After all, this is where their expertise lies.   Overall question to answer: Whose intellectual Property is this? Issues to consider and must address (Don’t just answer the questions in sequence! Construct a cohesive, logically layed-out essay answering ALL the questions): What must these students consider in order to respect the intellectual property rights of the industrial sponsor? Of Professor Love? How is NSF’s requirement for public disclosure balanced against the industrial sponsor’s need for confidentiality? What are the criteria for determining how much of what is learned in the laboratory is considered confidential intellectual property and how much of it is considered reasonable to be made use of by this group of students? Are there any skills that a graduate student acquires from research that the industrial sponsor or Professor Love has a right to prevent the student from using? What are the rights and responsibilities of Sal, Val, and Hal? And of Professor Love? How would the scenario, as outlined, be treated differently if Sal, Val, and Hal were working in a commercial company doing the same research and development work?
