    The document discusses operations at Arnold Palmer Hospital. It addresses demographic analysis, which involves determining population dimensions and dynamics over time using birth, death and migration data. It also discusses Arnold Palmer Hospital's lead capacity strategy of adding beds before demand exists to draw in more patients from competitors. However, this risks having unused beds if demand does not materialize. The next questions provide answers on linear regression analysis performed on hospital data to forecast demand.

    QUESTION NO 1:

    ANSWER:

    Demographic analysis involves the set of methods that allow us to determine the dimensions and
    dynamics of populations with the help of demographic analysis they use predicted demand.
    These theories have been applied mainly to study human populations, but are based on a set of
    areas where researchers want to know how social actors' populations can change with time
    through birth, death, and migration processes. Demographic research in the sense of human
    biological populations uses administrative documents to establish an independent population
    estimate. Lead strategy is implemented by Arnold Palmer hospital; capacity is added by the lead
    capacity strategy before demand actually exists. If the demand does not materialize, then the
    Arnold Palmer Hospital will unnecessarily find itself with unused/empty beds as well as the cost
    of ramping up capacity quickly. In anticipation of demand, it is done and the capacity is
    increased. It is a rather aggressive strategy and is used in the hospital industry to draw clients, i.e
    patients, away from other competitors.

    QUESTION NO 2:

    ANSWER:

    Arnold Palmer Hospital management, as it minimizes risk, like a lead strategy approach.
    However, there is some risk to the lead power strategy. Lead-based capacity decision, and the
    drawback of this technique, is that it often results in excess inventory, which is expensive and
    often inefficient. Similarly, it may be a risk and waste of too many resources like unused beds,
    equipment, machinery, etc. in the case of Arnold Palmer Hospital when real demand is not equal
    to the projected demand.

    12 13070 156840 144
    13 14028 182364 169
    ∑X= 91 ∑Y= 121371 ∑XY= 972364 ∑X2 = 819

    X′ = 91/13 = 7

    Y′ = 121371/13 = 9336

    ∑ XY −nX ' Y '


    b=
    ∑ X 2−n ( X ' ) 2

    972364−(13)(7)(9336)
    b=
    819−(13)( 49)

    122788
    b=
    182

    b = 674.65

    a = (Y′) - (b X′)

    a = (9336) - (674.65) (7)


    a = 4613.45

    LINEAR REGRESSION:

    Y′ = a + b X′

    Y′ = 4613.45 + (674.65) (7)

    Y′ = 9336
