The Journey to Making Decisions Begin Here: Identify the Problem DATA DATA Descriptive Statistics, Probability, Computers INFORMATION Experience, Theory, Literature Inferential Statistics, Computers KNOWLEDGE DECISION MAKING
DATA: Specific observations of measured numbers. INFORMATION: Processed and summarized data yielding facts and ideas. KNOWLEDGE: Selected and organized information that provides understanding, recommendations, and the basis for decisions.
Descriptive Statistics include graphical and numerical procedures that summarize and process data and are used to transform data into information Descriptive Statistics include graphical and numerical procedures that summarize and process data and are used to transform data into information Descriptive Statistics include graphical and numerical procedures that summarize and process data and are used to transform data into information Descriptive Statistics include graphical and numerical procedures that summarize and process data and are used to transform data into information Inferential Statistics provide the bases for predictions, forecasts, and estimates that are to transform information to knowledge
POPULATION: A complete set of individuals, objects or measurements having common observable characteristics. Examples of Populations - Names of all registered voters in TURKEY - Incomes of all families living in ANKARA - Annual return of all stocks traded on the ISTANBUL STOCK EXCHANGE - Grade Point Averages of all the students in your University - BILKENT
SAMPLE: A subset or part of a population Examples of Samples - Names of 50.000 registered voters in TURKEY - Incomes of 10.000 families living in ANKARA - Annual return of 150 stocks traded on the ISTANBUL STOCK EXCHANGE - Grade Point Averages of 500 students from different departments in your University - BILKENT

Measures of Location • Mean • Weighted Mean • Median • Mode • Percentiles • Quartiles
Sample Mean Sum of the values of the n observations Number of observations in the sample
Population Mean m Sum of the values of the N observations Number of observations in the population
Weighted Mean If data is from a population, m replaces x. Numerator: sum of the weighted data values Denominator: sum of the weights where: xi= value of observation i wi= weight for observation i
Weighted Mean • Example: Construction Wages Ron Butler, a home builder, is looking over the expenses he incurred for a house he just built. For the purpose of pricing future projects, he would like to know the average wage ($/hour) he paid the workers he employed. Listed below are the categories of worker he employed, along with their respective wage and total hours worked.
