  • Integrating Excel, SQL, and SPSS Within an Introductory Finance Intrinsic Value Assignment
    Journal of Finance and Accountancy Volume 20, September, 2015 Integrating Excel, SQL, and SPSS within an Introductory Finance Intrinsic Value Assignment Richard Walstra Dominican University Anne Drougas Dominican University Steve Harrington Dominican University ABSTRACT In 2013, the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) issued revised accreditation standards to address a “new era” of business education. The standards recognize that students will be entering a data-driven world and need skills in information technology to analyze and manage data. Employer surveys also emphasize the importance of technological skills and knowledge in a rapidly changing environment. To address these challenges, business faculty in all disciplines must adapt course content to incorporate software tools and statistical applications and integrate active learning tools that provide students with hands-on experience. This paper describes a technology-based, business valuation assignment instructors can employ within an undergraduate managerial finance course. The assignment draws upon historical financial data from the restaurant industry as students predict the intrinsic value of a firm through the application of various software products. Students receive data in an Access database and create SQL queries to determine free cash flows before transferring information into Excel for further analysis. Students continue by uploading key data elements into SPSS and performing statistical analysis on three growth models in order to identify a desired predictor of intrinsic value. The assignment develops students’ abilities to navigate software tools, understand statistical concepts, and apply quantitative decision making. Key Words: Business valuation, growth rates, software tools Copyright statement: Authors retain the copyright to the manuscripts published in AABRI journals.

  • A FORTRAN 77 Program for a Nonparametric Item Response Model: the Mokken Scale Analysis
    BehaviorResearch Methods, Instruments, & Computers 1988, 20 (5), 471-480 A FORTRAN 77 program for a nonparametric item response model: The Mokken scale analysis JOHANNES KINGMA University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah and TERRY TAERUM University ofAlberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada A nonparametric item response theory model-the Mokken scale analysis (a stochastic elabo­ ration of the deterministic Guttman scale}-and a computer program that performs this analysis are described. Three procedures of scaling are distinguished: a search procedure, an evaluation of the whole set of items, and an extension of an existing scale. All procedures provide a coeffi­ cient of scalability for all items that meet the criteria of the Mokken model and an item coeffi­ cient of scalability for every item. Four different types of reliability coefficient are computed both for the entire set of items and for the scalable items. A test of robustness of the found scale can be performed to analyze whether the scale is invariant across different subgroups or samples. This robustness test serves as a goodness offit test for the established scale. The program is writ­ ten in FORTRAN 77. Two versions are available, an SPSS-X procedure program (which can be used with the SPSS-X mainframe package) and a stand-alone program suitable for both main­ frame and microcomputers. The Mokken scale model is a stochastic elaboration of which both mainframe and MS-DOS versions are avail­ the well-known deterministic Guttman scale (Mokken, able. These programs, both named Mokscal, perform the 1971; Mokken & Lewis, 1982; Mokken, Lewis, & Mokken scale analysis. Before presenting a review of the Sytsma, 1986).

You can use classification and decision trees for: • Choose from CHAID, Exhaustive • Segmentation CHAID, C&RT and QUEST to find the • Stratification best fit for your data. • Prediction • Present results in an intuitive manner— • Data reduction and variable screening perfect for non-technical audiences. • Interaction identification • Save information from trees as new • Category merging variables in data (information such as • Discretizing continuous variables terminal node number, predicted value and predicted probabilities). Highly visual diagrams enable you to present categorical results in an intuitive manner—so you can more clearly explain the results to non-technical audiences. These trees enable you to explore your results and visually determine how your model flows. Visual results can help you find specific subgroups and relationships that you might not uncover using more traditional statistics. Because classification trees break the data down into branches and nodes, you can easily see where a group splits and terminates.

  • Carlos Guardia Rivas Ibm Spain
    CARLOS GUARDIA RIVAS IBM SPAIN EXECUTIVE IT SPECIALIST - IBM SOFTWARE GROUP WHAT IS THE ROLE OF DATA WITHIN YOUR ACTIVITY AT IBM? IBM is closely related to data and is a big data producer. For example, a few years ago IBM bought The Weather Company. This company generates climate data, compiles it and sells it to, especially, insurance companies and also to other private companies that make use of this kind of data. Even if IBM uses external data repositories, it is mainly a data producer. As for the tools, at IBM we have a very complete portfolio of analytics tools, ranging from importing data from diverse sources, data integration in diverse formats, data cleaning, replication to other systems if needed… Our most famous analytics tool is Watson, which is basically a set of tools that allows you to do any kind of projection on the data: from visualization to prediction. In conclusion, we are a company that offers solutions in the main data-related areas. This is the field in which IBM is heavily investing. DOES IBM USE OPEN DATA FROM PUBLIC SOURCES? We mainly use our own IBM-produced data and tools. We have a big variety of databases: structured, non-structured, analysis-oriented… CONSIDERING THAT MOST OF THE DATA IS GENERATED BY IBM, WHAT KIND OF STANDARDS DO YOU APPLY? Our own customers demand us to adjust to specific standards when they use our tools. Therefore, we comply with all the typical standards in data management. If we didn’t do so, we wouldn’t sell anything! We are always keeping an eye on the market’s demand for specific standards.
