The "why" behind a project can vary, but data analysis projects are typically motivated by four forces: Opportunity: Evaluating new opportunities that will benefit the organization. Professional issues: Evaluating changes due to new laws, regulations, or changes in accounting practices. Problem-solving: Addressing a problem or issue that the organization is facing. Process and performance assessment: Understanding and improving the processes and performance of the organization. The objective of data analysis is the specific goal of the project. Well-structured data analysis questions should be: Aligned with the objective of the analysis. Focused on a single topic (if complex, broken into sub-questions). Measurable with available data. Specific Background: At Gulfbay University, staff and faculty use purchasing cards (P-Cards) for business-related expenses. The P-Card program defines spending limits and approved purchase categories. For example, single transactions should not exceed $10,000. Department managers review transactions monthly to ensure compliance. While P-Cards offer convenience and lower procurement costs, they also introduce fraud and misuse risks. You are an internal auditor conducting a review of the P-Card program to assess compliance and detect potential fraud. The university accounting system provides the following data fields: Employee Number Employee Name P-Card Transaction Date P-Card Transaction Vendor P-Card Transaction Amount REQUIRED: State the motivation and objective of this data analysis. Identify why this analysis is necessary (motivation). Define the specific goal(s) of the analysis (objective). Describe your approach to analyzing this data: What key data fields will you focus on, and why? What analytical techniques would you apply to test for compliance? What potential anomalies would you investigate in the dataset?
