1. Trade-In Revenue by Store

Problem Statement: Apple’s trade-in


program allows customers to return their
old iPhones for cash. Each store needs to
know how much revenue they made from
these trade-ins. We want to see the total
payouts for each store, sorted from highest
to lowest.

trade_in_transactions

trade_in_payouts

linkedin.com/in/ileonjose
How to Solve:

Use the trade_in_transactions table for


transaction records and the
trade_in_payouts table for payout
amounts.

Connect the two tables using the


model_id to ensure you get the correct
payout for each transaction.

Use GROUP BY to organize the results


based on each store’s ID.

linkedin.com/in/ileonjose
Use SUM() to calculate the total payout
amount for each store.

Use ORDER BY to arrange the stores in


descending order of their total payouts.

Choose the columns to display: the store


ID and the calculated total payout.

2. AirPods Purchase Patterns
After iPhones

Apple Statement: The Apple retention team


wants to understand buying patterns. We
need to find the percentage of customers
who purchased AirPods immediately after
buying iPhones. This includes customers
who bought both at the same time. We must
round the final percentage to the nearest
whole number.

transactions

How to Solve:

Use the transactions table to analyze


customer purchases.

Apply LAG() to check if AirPods were


bought directly after iPhones for each
customer.

Select only those customers who bought


AirPods following iPhones, without any
other purchases in between.

Calculate the number of unique
customers who fit the criteria.

Find the total number of distinct


customers who made any purchase.

Use the formula (number of AirPods


buyers / total customers) * 100.

Round the final percentage to ensure it’s


a whole number.

3. Product Ratings by Month

Apple Statement: We need to analyze


customer reviews for Apple products. The
goal is to calculate the monthly average
rating for each product based on user
reviews. Each review includes a star rating
from 1 to 5.

linkedin.com/in/ileonjose
The reviews table has the following schema:

review_id: An integer that uniquely


identifies each review

user_id: An integer that identifies the


user who submitted the review

submit_date: A datetime value that


represents when the review was
submitted

product_id: An integer that identifies the


product being reviewed

stars: An integer that indicates the


number of stars the product received in
the review (from 1 to 5)

linkedin.com/in/ileonjose
How to Solve:

Use the reviews table, which contains all


necessary data.

Use the EXTRACT() function to pull the


month from the submit_date.

Organize results by month and product


ID to calculate averages.

Use the AVG() function to determine the


average star rating for each product each
month.

Sort Results: Order the results first by


month and then by product ID for clarity.

4. Average Monthly Sales of Apple
Products

Apple Statement: As a data analyst at Apple,


understanding the sales performance of
various products is crucial. We need to
calculate the average quantity sold per
month for each Apple product during the
year 2021. This data will help in making
informed business decisions and creating
insightful visualizations.

sales

linkedin.com/in/ileonjose
How to Solve:

Use the products table for product


details and the sales table for sales data.

Perform an inner join on product_id to


combine sales data with product names.

Use a WHERE clause to focus on sales


that occurred in 2021.

linkedin.com/in/ileonjose
Use the MONTH() function to group sales
data by month.

Apply the AVG() function to determine


the average quantity sold for each
product each month.

Group the results by month and product


name for clear analysis.
