Refund success rates are derived from empirical data from more than one thousand different shipping accounts, with a statistical significance p value greater than .05. Attributes related to the shipment and the type of claim being filed are both considered in this model.
Take for example the attribute of service type in the context of service failure (late delivery).

Consideration for such variables yields accuracy in the report of findings.
