2. Working with Multiple Variables
Response of One variable
to Change in The Other
Move together
1. Same Direction
2. Different Direction
Don’t Move Together
How much change in
one variable in
response to a unit
change in the other.
Correlation or
Association
Regression
3. Studying Multi
Variables Two Ways
Deterministic Way Probabilistic Way
Relation or Effect is Exact Relation or Effect is Non-
exact (Error Term)
Book Value
BV = P– AD = P - nD
BV = Book Value
P = Price
AD = Accumulated Depreciation
D = Depreciation
n = years
Marks Obtained
M = C + mH
M = Marks Obtained in Exam
H = Time Given to Study (Hrs)
m = increase in marks in
response to increase study by
1 hr

5. RegressionWhatisit?
Modeling of the functional relationship between a response
variable and a set of explanatory variables
The regression model tells what happens to the response
variable for specified changes in the explanatory variables.
Example
What will be the cash flows based on specified values of
interest rates, raw material costs, salary increases, and ….
A regression line, also called a line of best fit, is the line for
which the sum of the squares of the residuals is a minimum.

8. Assumption 1
The mean of each error
component is zero
Assumption 2
Each error component
follows an approximate
normal distribution
Assumption 3
Homoscedasticity
Variance of error
component is the same
for each value of X
Assumption 4
The errors are
independent of each
other
