Using this tool we can do this regression analysis in seconds. If you already know what regression equations are, and you just want your results quickly then this part is for you. Excel provides a whole bunch of tools for analysis in its Analysis Toolpak.
By default, it is not available in the Data tab. You need to add it. Select Analysis ToolPak and at the bottom of the window, find manage. The regression input window will pop up. You will see a number of available input options. But for now, we will just concentrate on Y Range and X Range, leaving everything else to default. For the output range, I have selected E4 on the same sheet. You may select a new worksheet to get results on a new worksheet in the same workbook or a complete new workbook.
When you are done with your inputs, hit the OK button. You will be served with a variety of information from your data. We will only deal with those results which will help us to estimate the required number of salesmen. We just need to locate Slope and Intercept in results. Round up them and we will get So we have learned how to form the regression equation manually and using Analysis ToolPak. How can you use this equation to estimate future stats? In our case, it is 0. In our case, F is It means our regression fits the data.
In excel, it is easy to plot a regression chart. Just follow these steps. To add Regression Chart in Excel , , and follow these simple steps. Step 2. Step 4. Add the trend line: Goto layout and locate the trendline option in the analysis section. Under the Trendline option, click on Linear Trendline. For our example, we added to the Soft Drink Sold and left the Salesmen blank. And when we extend the range of the graph, this is what we will have.
It will give the required number of salesmen for doing sales of soft drinks in graphical form. Which is slightly below in the graph. And from our regression equation, we know it is In this article, I tried to cover everything under Excel Regression Analysis.
I explained regression in excel Regression in excel and excel is same as in excel But why should you go for it when excel does calculations for you? Suppose you have data on the height and weight of 10 individuals. As the above screenshot shows, the linear relationship can be found in Height and Weight through the graph. The further article explains the basics of regression analysis in excel and shows a few different ways to do linear regression in Excel.
Till here, it was easy and not that logical. However, interpreting this output and make valuable insights from it is a tricky task. In this case, the R Square value is 0. Or in another language, information about the Y variable is explained The other important part of the entire output is a table of coefficients.
It gives values of coefficients that can be used to build the model for future predictions. Did you get what you have defined? This is valuable information. You can also use these coefficients to do a forecast. The residuals show you how far away the actual data points are fom the predicted data points using the equation. For example, the first data point equals Using the equation, the predicted data point equals Chapter Analysis ToolPak.
