Abstract
This five-step user's guide to statistical estimation is designed for individuals with little or no
experience with regression modeling. The use of this powerful tool to make educated guesses is
discussed in the context of a simple example in Microsoft Excel. The reader has three choices:
read the text and ignore the integrated example; read the text and the example; or, read the text
and reproduce the example. After reading and working the example we hope you'll be motivated
to create you own model predictions. Improving our guesses can help save time and money.
