Suggested Treatment:
The data shows auto correlation and a non-normal distribution. The data should be differenced. While the Order Norm transformation, provides the best normality, the Yeo Johnson variable will also perform well.
Grain Transformation:
Data is unable to be distributed by time or geography. The roll up method used is Weighted Average.
Data shows auto correlation indicating a need for differencing
The ACF indicates 2 order differencing is appropriate.
Further differencing is reccommended
The Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS) test, KPSS Trend = 0.45 p-value = 0.01 indicates that the data is not stationary.
The Shapiro-Wilk test returned W = 0.73 with a p-value =0.00 indicating the data does not follow a normal distribution.
A skewness score of 2.01 indicates the data are substantially skewed.
Hartigan's dip test score of 0.02 with a p-value of 0.94 inidcates the data is unimodal
