- Suppose you just graduated with an accounting degree and are trying to choose an accounting firm to begin your career. You spent hours researching many firms and have narrowed your search down to three (i.e. Aguilar, Brown and Cheng). You have surveyed accountants to determine if the average incomes at each firm are equal between each of your top three choices. Obviously you want to join the firm with the highest average pay. Below are a sample of salaries (i.e. eight individuals from each firm) enabling you to test the hypothesis that the average pay (in thousands of $) is equal between employers. Use Fisher's LSD procedure (if necessary) to test whether there is a significant difference between any of the firms.

They asked the following question: "As you know, the Friday after Thanksgiving is one of the biggest shopping days of the year. Looking ahead, do you personally plan on shopping on the Friday after Thanksgiving, or not?" Of the 515 men who responded, 16% said "Yes." Of the 500 women who responded, 20% said "Yes." The standard error of the differences in proportions (PM - Pw) is about SE = 0.025. Use the normal distribution to test, at the 5% level, if the proportions of men and women who planned to shop on the Friday after Thanksgiving are significantly different. The sample size is large enough to use the normal distribution. Z= i p-value = i There is ✓evidence that the proportion of men and women who planned to shop the Friday after Thanksgiving are significantly different.arrow_forwardAmong college students, the proportion p who say they're interested in their congressional district's election results has traditionally been 75%.

- 600 students at Drew High School were surveyed. 269 of them were males. 455 of the students' wear jewelry, and 300 of the students that wear jewelry are females.arrow_forwardAs a destination marketing director, you found that TV executives used the guideline that 25% of the viewers were watching Fox cable network, 22% watching NBC and CBS, and 19% watching ABC. The remaining 12% were watching other cable networks such as CNN and MSNBC on a weekday night. A random sample of 500 viewers in the D.C. metro area last Tuesday night showed 109 homes were tuned in to the Fox station, 125 homes tuning in to NBC affiliate, 100 homes tuning in to CBS affiliate and 81 homes tuning in to ABC affiliate. 85 homes were watching CNN and NSNBC cable stations. At the 0.05 significant level, can we conclude that the guideline is still reasonable?arrow_forward600 students at Drew High School were surveyed. 269 of them were males. 455 of the students' wear jewelry, and 300 of the students that wear jewelry are females.arrow_forward
