Using regression analysis in litigation and valuation

$225.00

SKU: VLBnd123. Category: .

Description

Abstract: Financial experts often use regression analysis and other statistical techniques in calculating damages, determining causation and conducting business valuations. Regression analysis can be a powerful, persuasive tool. But it can also be dangerous in the wrong hands. This article discusses a federal court case in which a large damages award was thrown out because, according to the court, the expert’s regression analysis was so deeply flawed that it “should never have been allowed to be put before a jury.” Citation: ATA Airlines v. Federal Express, 665 F.3d 882 (7th Cir. 2011)
