Suppose the survey sampled 200 men and 200 women. If 104 of the men replied Yes and 74 of the women replied Yes, are the results statistically significant in that you can conclude a greater proportion of men are expecting to get a raise or a promotion this year? State the hypothesis test in terms of the population proportion of men and the population proportion of women? b. What is the sample proportion for men? For women? Use a .01 level of significance. What is the p-value and what is your conclusion? a. с.

Identify several types of manufacturing companies for which process costing would be an appropriate product-costing system.

Exercise 2. Use the final project data to complete the following questions. Collaborate with your project partners and produce the Excel outputs for the first analysis listed on the project guidelines below. Read and follow the instructions carefully. The Excel outputs such as tables, graphs, summary statistics produced by using Excel. All statistics should not have more than 2 decimal places. All Excel outputs (such as graphs and summary statistics) for each related analysis must be fitted in one sheet. 2. To analyze the total number of items purchased, construct an ungrouped frequency distribution, graph, and find the summary statistics by each type of customer (regular/promotion). Label the graphs completely. Describe the shape of the distribution for each type of customer and discuss similarities or differences by interpreting the graphs and summary statistics. What can you conclude? 3. To analyze customer age, construct a frequency distribution, graph, and find…
