    PREDICTIVE 3 PREDICTIVE SALES REPORT A retail store has recently hired you as a consultant to advice on economic conditions. One important indicator that the retail store is concerned about is the unemployment rate. The retail store has found that an increase in the unemployment rate will cause a lack of consumer spending in their stores.

In this consultant role you will apply calculations and research to create a predictive sales report.
