Would an ATM machine on CMC’s campus be profitable?
Joseph Chang Maryan Samson Andrew Yeh
The case against an ATM machine on CMC:
-ATM machines at Pomona and Huntley Bookstore do NOT have high volume of activity
-Banks speculate that an ATM machine on CMC would be not generate more activity than Pomona or Huntley have thus far
-Fundamental part of any deal would necessitate CMC advertising on behalf of Bank’s ATM on-campus to all incoming Freshman classes
The case for an ATM machine on CMC:
-Pomona has one
-Northern part of CMC is a central point of the rest of the Consortium
-Major implication: in addition to CMC students that would use an ATM machine on CMC’s campus—students across Pitzer, Scripps, Harvey Mudd would change their preference to an ATM machine on CMC
-Planned growth for Pitzer and CMC campus actually imply higher future potential customers
Data Collection
Sample Size: 202 Students (124 Non-CMC, 88 CMC)
Online SurveyHand Surveys
The Empirical CaseAssertion: CMC’s ATM machine would not generate $50,000 of monthly activity
Data as of May 4, 2009:
-Claremont McKenna student body: 1,211 students x (On-campus housing rate): 97%- (CMC student abroad average): 73 students
-CMC active student body: 1,102 students
-Pitzer student body: 950 students x (On-campus housing rate): 94%- (Pitzer student abroad average): 75 students
- active student body : 818 students
-Scripps student body: 962 students x (On-campus housing rate): 96%- (Scripps student abroad average): 65 students
-Scripps active student body : 859 students
The Empirical Case cont.
Summary of Findings:Of the 89 CMC students polled, 83 students said they would use an ATM machine on CMC’s campus
-Average Gross Transactions: 93.92771-Average Monthly Frequency: 2.792683-Average Monthly Gross Transactions: $262.92 -Variance of Gross Transactions: 7084.995-Standard Deviation of Gross Transactions: 84.17241-Variance of Monthly Frequency: 3.252785-Standard Deviation of Monthly Frequency: 1.803548
-Based on Sample size of 83/89 = 93% of CMC students would use an ATM machine on CMC’s campus
The Empirical Case cont.
Summary of Findings:Of the 63 Pitzer students polled, 53 students said they would use an ATM machine on CMC’s campus
-Average Gross Transactions: 54.1504-Average Monthly Frequency: 2.653846-Average Monthly Gross Transactions: $143.72-Variance of Gross Transactions: 2463.208-Standard Deviation of Gross Transactions: 49.63081-Variance of Monthly Frequency: 2.653846-Standard Deviation of Monthly Frequency: 1.956259
-Based on Sample size of 53/63 = 84% of Pitzer students would use an ATM machine on CMC’s campus
The Empirical Case cont.
Summary of Findings:Of the 49 Scripps students polled, 36 students said they would use an ATM machine on CMC’s campus
-Average Gross Transactions: 61.80556-Average Monthly Frequency: 2.882353-Average Monthly Gross Transactions: $177.98-Variance of Gross Transactions: 1974.504-Standard Deviation of Gross Transactions: 44.43539-Variance of Monthly Frequency: 12.71301-Standard Deviation of Monthly Frequency: 3.565531
-Based on Sample size of 36/49 = 73% of Scripps students would use an ATM machine on CMC’s campus
The Empirical Case conclusion.
Based on our sample sizes,
CMC would have 93% of their active study body using the ATM Machine. 93% of 1,102 would yield 1025 students with an average monthly transaction of $262.92. Net activity: $269,493.00
Pitzer would have 84% of their active study body using the ATM Machine. 84% of 818 would yield 687 students with an average monthly transaction of $177.98 Net activity: $122,272.26
Scripps would have 73% of their active study body using the ATM Machine. 73% of 859 would yield 627 students with an average monthly transaction of 117.98. Net activity: $111.595.97
The sum clearly exceeds the $50,000 target by Wells Fargo.
Limitations of research:
-Activity during summer breaks and winter breaks significantly lower-Cannot calculate costs of advertising plan-Surveys approximate transactions—possible inflation-Does not take into account actual logistics of a proposed ATM machine i.e. location, hours, bank, etc.-Does not fully address the behavior—just the numerical data
Research: To identify what factors affect the students of CMC, Pitzer, and Scripps when choosing an ATM machine

Application of Findings-Addresses Bank’s Volume Concern-Placement of an ATM on CMC is projected to be more profitable given the factors shown by the regression-Does not Address the problem of School being out for Summer and Winter Break
