• Data contamination

extreme
values
unexpected distribution
PROBLEM INTRODUCTION
• Assumption 1 Every investment project`s payoff is linked with customer expectation
Ing. Štefan Lyócsa, PhD.
• Assumption 2 For higher customer expectations it is more difficult to overwhelm these expectations
PROBLEM INTRODUCTIONData about customer expectations:
Ing. Štefan Lyócsa, PhD.
• financial decisions: to make an investment (or not) to abandon an investment to wait with an investment
Assessing the data contamination:• quantitatively & qualitatively
