Abstract: Abstract Regression analysis is a versatile method for the analysis and description of business problems. It is based on the development of a model that allows a forecast into the future using historical data. Dummy coding is required when categorically independent variables are to be included in a multiple regression analysis. In the business context, for example, different customer groups can be differentiated based on categorical characteristics.
