Limitations: Regression analysis is a commonly used tool for companies to make predictions based on certain variables. Even though it is very common there are still limitations that arise when producing the regression‚ which can skew the results. The Number of Variables: The first limitation that we noticed in our regression model is the number of variables that we used. The more companies that you have to compare the greater the chance your model will be significant. We have found that

considers the relationship between two variables in two ways: (1) by using regression analysis and (2) by computing the correlation coefficient. By using the regression model‚ we can evaluate the magnitude of change in one variable due to a certain change in another variable. For example‚ an economist can estimate the amount of change in food expenditure due to a certain change in the income of a household by using the regression model. A sociologist may want to estimate the increase in the crime rate
