COST FINDING THROUGH MULTIPLE CORRELATION ANALYSIS,

Abstract

Multiple correlation analysis will not seriously compete with established costing practices, but under some circumstances will prove useful for developing cost estimates not determinable by other means. This paper presents a simple example in order to give accountants a glimpse of the technique and to enable them to recognize potential applications. Consultation with a statistician or a good textbook is urged.
