Fundamentals of linear predictive modeling Write a fully executed R-Markdown program and submit a pdf / word or html file performing classification task on the Binary response variable from the Santander Bank Case Study. Make sure to try various hyperparameters of the SVM algorithm to find the best available model. You are required to clearly display and explain the models that were run for this task and their effect on the reduction of the Cost Function.

Power Point Presentation Your Team should develop a power point presentation that covers team processes including but not limited to the following: 1. What are team processes? Can you find 2 definitions of them? Which definition is better? Is a team methodology the same as a team process? How? 2. Describe the product development process prior to the implementation of the agile methodology? 3. Describe the product development process since the implementation of the Agile Methodology? 4. What does the paper dealing with Agile-Stage-Gate want to change and why? 5. Are there other team processes beyond the method of completing a task, which deal with the human relations on a team? Describe them. 6. What team processes has your team established? 7. What have I forgotten to include? You presentation should contain a title page, agenda, an introductory slide, the slides, a summary slide, and a reference list slide. It should be 12 – 14 pages.

3. Using Beta. A stock with a beta of .8 has an expected rate of return of 12%. If the market return this year turns out to be 5 percentage points below expectations, what is your best guess as to the rate of return on the stock? (LO12-1) 4. Specific versus Market Risk. Figure 12.11 shows plots of monthly rates of return on three stocks versus the stock market index. (The plots are similar to those in Figure 12.2.) The beta and standard deviation of each stock are given beside its plot. (LO12-1) a. Which stock is safest for a diversified investor? b. Which stock is safest for an undiversified investor who puts all her funds in one of these stocks? c. Consider a portfolio with equal investments in each stock. What would this portfolio’s beta have been? d. Consider a well-diversified portfolio made up of stocks with the same beta as Intel. What are the beta and standard deviation of this portfolio’s return? The standard deviation of the markket portfolio’s return is 20%. e. What is the expected rate of return on each stock? Use the capital asset pricing model with a market risk premium of 8%. The risk-free rate of interest is 4%. 8. Portfolio Risk and Return. According to the CAPM, would the expected rate of return on a security with a beta less than zero be more or less than the risk-free interest rate? Why would investors invest in such a security? (Hint: Look back to the auto and gold example in Chapter 11.) (LO12-1) 9. Risk and Return. Suppose that the risk premium on stocks and other securities did, in fact, rise with total risk (i.e., the variability of returns) rather than just market risk. Explain how investors could exploit the situation to create portfolios with high expected rates of return but low levels of risk. (LO12-2) 14. Expected Returns. Consider the following two scenarios for the economy and the expected returns in each scenario for the market portfolio, an aggressive stock A, and a defensive stock D. (LO12-2) Rate of Return Scenario Market Aggressive Stock A Defensive Stock D Bust ?8% ?10% ?6% Boom 32 38 24 a. Find the beta of each stock. In what way is stock D defensive? b. If each scenario is equally likely, find the expected rate of return on the market portfolio and on each stock. c. If the T-bill rate is 4%, what does the CAPM say about the fair expected rate of return on the two stocks? d. Which stock seems to be a better buy on the basis of your answers to parts (a), (b), and (c)? 3. Using Beta. A stock with a beta of .8 has an expected rate of return of 12%.

Complete the final case study paper on your selected and approved company. Guidelines: The final case study paper should cover an introduction (overview) of the company and its competitive landscape along with four other sections addressing organizational economic theory and concepts learned throughout the course. Each section should be 1.5 – 2.0 pages (4 sections X 1.5 - 2.0 pages = 6 - 8 pages). The evaluation of the final case study paper is based on how well students apply the course concepts and ideas to the company they have selected.
