Tax assessment value

  Use the data to construct a model that predicts the tax assessment value assigned to medical office buildings with specific characteristics. Construct a scatter plot in Excel with Floor Area as the independent variable and Assessment Value as the dependent variable. Insert the bivariate linear regression equation and r^2 in your graph. Do you observe a linear relationship between the 2 variables? Use Excel’s Analysis Tool Pak to conduct a regression analysis of Floor Area and Assessment Value. Is Floor Area a significant predictor of Assessment Value? Construct a scatter plot in Excel with Age as the independent variable and Assessment Value as the dependent variable. Insert the bivariate linear regression equation and r^2 in your graph. Do you observe a linear relationship between the 2 variables? Use Excel’s Analysis Tool Pak to conduct a regression analysis of Age and Assessment Value. Is Age a significant predictor of Assessment Value? Construct a multiple regression model. Use Excel’s Analysis Tool Pak to conduct a regression analysis with Assessment Value as the dependent variable and Floor Area, Offices, Entrances, and Age as independent variables. What is the overall fit r^2? What is the adjusted r^2? Which predictors are considered significant if we work with α=0.05? Which predictors can be eliminated? What is the final model if we only use FloorArea and Offices as predictors? Suppose our final model is: AssessedValue = 115.9 + 0.26 x FloorArea + 78.34 x Offices What wouldbe the assessed value of a medical office building with a floor area of 3500 sq. ft., 2 offices, that was built 15 years ago? Is this assessed value consistent with what appears in the database?
