Predicting Movie Revenue Nash Information Services provides information and analytical services to the movie industry, including statistical models for predicting movie revenue. Consider a random sample of 40 movies released over a five-year period. This sample was collected to see if information available soon after the theatrical release can successfully predict total box office revenue. The population of interest is much larger and consists of all movies released over this five-year period. Consider that the response variable is a movies total U.S. box office revenue (USRevenue). Among the explanatory variables are the movies budget (Budget), opening-weekend revenue (Opening), how many theaters the movie was in for the opening weekend (Theaters), and Ratings (e.g. Rating 1). All dollar amounts are measured in millions of U.S. dollars. The data file is boxoffice.csv. You can use the following R command to load the data from your local device to R. boxoffice.data = read.csv(file.choose(), head=T)
1. Preliminary analysis.
(a) (0.5 points) The response variable (USRevenue) is quantitative. How about the explanatory variables? Which of the explanatory variables are quantitative? which categorical?
(b) (1 points) Consider three (quantitative) explanatory variables: Budget, Opening and Theater. Use scatterplot to study the relationship between the response variable and each of these 3 explanatory variables. Comment.
(c) (1 points) Provide correlation matrix among four variables, Budget, Opening, Theaters, and USRevenue. Is each quantitative explanatory variable highly correlated with the response variable? are explanatory variables highly correlated with themselves?
2. (1 points) Run a multiple regression with Budget (X1), Opening (X2) and Theaters (X3) as explanatory variables, and USRevenue as response variable. Write down your fitted model. Lets call this model 1. Model 1: USRevenue = 0 + 1Budget + 2Opening + 3T heaters
3. (1 points) Comment on how well your linear model fits the data in terms of R2 .
4. (2 points) Print out the linear regression results, including the estimated regression coefficients, its standard error, t statistic, and P-value. Comment on the t-tests on model 1. For example, are 1, 2, and 3 significantly different from zero, at significance level 0.05? 1
5. (2 points) Print out the ANOVA tests and comment on the results.
6. (1.5 points) At significance level = 0.05, test the hypothesis of whether the coefficient associated with opening-weekend revenue is greater than 2 (i.e. the impact of opening-weekend revenue is more than double). In other words: H0 : 2 2 Ha : 2 > 2 What is your conclusion on the above hypothesis?
7. (1 points) For each additional million dollars put in the Budget, how much increase in the U.S. box office revenue you predict?
8. (1 points) A new movie just comes out. Its budget is 100 millions, openingweekend revenue is 50 millions, and it is shown in 3500 theaters over the openingweekend. What is the 90% prediction interval for this new movie?
9. (2 points) Run regression analysis on the next two models: Model 2: USRevenue = 0 + 1T heaters and Model 3: USRevenue = 0 + 1Budget + 2Opening Among Model 1-3, which do you prefer? and Why?
10. (1 point) In the dataset boxoffice.csv, there is a variable called Rating 1. Is this a categorical variable or quantitative variable? Explain the meaning of Rating 1 = 0, and Rating 1 = 1.
11. (2 points) Consider the following multiple regression: Model 4: USRevenue = 0 + 1Budget + 2Opening + 3Rating1 What is the predicted USRevenue for the new movie, if it has Rating 1=0? and what is the predicted USRevenue for the new movie, if it has Rating 1=1?
12. (3 points) What is your final model? Briefly explain why.
13. (Bonus 5 points, optional) How to improve your final model in 12? Document your steps and provide reasonings. You should continue to use USRevenue as response variable, however, you could expand the model to incorporate all the other variables in the data set boxoffice.csv![image text in transcribed](https://s3.amazonaws.com/si.experts.images/answers/2024/07/669ee76f7566b_966669ee76eec32e.jpg)
