Business Analytics 9 – Projecting your future

Background: You are in the Cod fishing business in the north Atlantic, off the New England coast. As we saw in exercise #1, this past year was the worst ever…..there are basically no Cod fish left! Your future and your family’s future is at stake! What are you going to do?

Question: Graphically compare the past 10 years of Cod fishing in the Atlantic versus the Pacific and make a case for whether, and why, you should keep your one boat where it is currently on the Atlantic, or move your family and your boat to the Pacific.

1. What has been the 10 year trend of Pacific Cod versus Atlantic Cod?

2. What were the Pacific Cod revenues in 2015?

Hint: Use a colorful bar chart works well, but you can test the waters with any chart that makes sense. For example, a line charge containing both trends of the chart.

Business Analytics 10 – Tough Decisions!

Background: Turns out you have a lot of family in New England and your spouse and kids do not wish to move to the Pacific with you so you can continue to catch Cod. All you know is fishing so you’re going to stay in New England and fish, but what are you going to fish for? Questions:

1. Even though you’re not going to become a Lobsterman, from your research you have discovered why lobster are being harvested more than ever. Explain why more and more American Lobster are being harvested each year and show this graphically (years 2005-15) in a yearly colored bar chart. What was the total 2015 Revenue for American Lobster?

2. There is one fish in your data that is mentioned quite often on the Web Click Here. It just so happens that more of these are moving north into the now warmer New England waters. So Cod fishermen are beginning to fish these. Produce a chart showing the yearly revenues of this fish from 2005-2015. What was the 2015 total revenue for this fish?
