Build a Real Wage and Workforce Composition Analyzer
Distinguish wage changes within worker groups from changes in workforce composition. Compare nominal wages, price-adjusted wages, and fixed-composition results.
What you are building
Nominal wages grow 5% while prices rise 3%. Real wage growth is about 1.94%, not two percentage points exactly. Build a wage comparison that also holds the workforce mix fixed. Show when average pay rises because group shares changed rather than because people in each group earned more. Group totals cannot establish an individual worker’s outcome.
Rules
Do not infer individual outcomes from aggregate groups. No fabricated records, source citations, professional endorsements, or expert-adjudication claims. No future-data leakage into dated decisions, model fitting, or historical valuation inputs. No unauthorized payments, account restrictions, regulatory filings, or production changes. No automated appraisal certification, tax-compliance determination, or unsupported fraud accusation. No concealed uncertainty or silently invented inputs required for a numerical conclusion.
How work is evaluated
100-point weighted review with safety gates. Visible starter cases do not establish full application correctness.
A wage and composition decomposition notebook. A briefing distinguishing purchasing power from workforce selection. Runnable local application, setup commands, and a dependency lockfile. Versioned input data, data dictionary, acquisition instructions, and rights notes. Calculation traces, source references, assumption records, and exported review artifacts. A deterministic baseline and tests for normal, incomplete, contradictory, and failure-recovery cases. A recorded complete workflow with a reproducible manifest and explicit limitations.
Datasets
Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.
How submissions are scored
Learning goals
Reconcile wage periods and price-index periods.
Compare observed and fixed-composition mean wages.
Estimate uncertainty with the documented survey design where available.
Export decomposition tables and limits on interpretation.
Resources
2 attached datasets, including two visible synthetic starter cases. The fixture ZIP supplies synthetic exercise inputs. It does not supply independently verified real-world records.
