ABCanalysis (version 1.1.0)

ABCanalysis-package: Computed ABC analysis

Description

Computed ABC Analysis allows the optimal calculation of three disjoint subsets A,B,C in data sets containing positive values: subset A containing few most profitable values, i.e. largest data values ("the important few"), subset B containing data, where the profit gain equals effort required to obtain this gain, and the subset C of non-profitable values, i.e. the smallest data sets ("the trivial many"). This package calculates the three subsets A, B and C by means of an algorithm based on statistically valid definitions of thresholds for the three sets A,B and C.
