Course- Data Analysis Homework: Sampling Distribution and Confidence interval
Total points: 20
Problem 1 [8pts] A manufacturer of small appliances employs a market research firm to estimate retail sales of its products by gathering information from a sample of retail stores. This month an SRS of 80 stores
in the Midwest sales region finds that these stores sold an average of 25 of the manufacturer's hand mixers, with standard deviation 12. a.
Give a 99% C.I. for the average number of mixers sold by a store in the region. Interpret your answer.
CI 90%=1.64 CI 95%=1.96 CI 99%=2.57.
SRS (simple Random Sample) =80
Average =25
S.D.= 12
Standard error = S.D./ sqroot(SRS)= 12/sqroot(80)= 12/8.944=1.34
Confidence interval (C.I.) for upper bound
= average +(Z-score* 1.34)= 25 +(2.57*1.34)= 28.4438
Confidence interval(C.I.) for lower bound
= average -(Z-score* 1.34)= 25 -(2.57*1.34)= 21.5562
We are 99% confident that the average number of mixers sold is 21.55 and 28.44.
b.
If you compute a 90% C.I., how does the margin of error change as the confidence level decreases? Explain.
Confidence interval (C.I.) for upper bound
= average +(Z-score* 1.34) = 25 +(1.64*1.34)= 27.1976
Confidence interval (C.I.) for lower bound
= average -(Z-score* 1.34) = 25 -(1.64*1.34)= 22.8024
As margin of errors decreases the confidence interval narrows. The interval has less room
for sample values.
c.
If you increase the sample size, and compute a new 99% C.I., do you expect the new margin of error to increase or decrease? Explain.
More the sample size, less error and better estimations.
Problem 2 [8pts] An IT professional who recently graduated from college has been interviewed for a job here in Chicago that involves development and maintenance of Web applications and the design, implement and support of electronic commerce solutions. He is offered a starting salary of 63,000 dollars per year. A recent survey reported that the average salary of a sample of 500 Internet/Intranet developers working in Chicago is $72,000 dollars with standard deviation equal
to 13,000 dollars. CI 90%=1.64 CI 95%=1.96 CI 99%=2.57.
a.
Construct a 90% confidence interval for the average salary of Web developers in Chicago. Interpret your answer in simple English
SRS= 500
Average= 72,000
S.D.= 13,000
Standard error = S.D./ sqroot(SRS)= = 13000/sqroot(500)= 13000/22.36=581.37
Confidence interval (C.I.) for upper bound
= average +(Z-score* 1.34)= 72000 +(1.64*581.37)= 72,953.4468
Confidence interval (C.I.) for lower bound
= average -(Z-score* 1.34) = 72000 - (1.64*581.37)= 71,046.5532
On average a developer in Chicago earns between $ 71,046 and $72,953.
b.
Do you conclude that the position offered to the IT professional is competitive in terms of
salary? Interpret your answer in simple English.
He is offered a starting salary of $63,000 per year and the confidence interval at 90% is from $ 71,046to $72,953. The salary of the position offered to the IT professional is definitely lower than the average salary.
c.
Explain to someone who knows no statistics what "90% confidence level" means. With 90 % of confidence interval, you have a chance of 10% of being wrong.
Problem 3 [4pts]
A bank wonders whether omitting the annual credit card fee for customers who charge at least $3,000 in a
year would increase the amount charged on their credit card. The bank makes an offer to an SRS of 500 existing credit card customers. It then compares how much these customers charge this year with the amount they charges last year. The mean increase is $565, and the standard deviation is $267.
CI 90%=1.64 CI 95%=1.96 CI 99%=2.57.
Give a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of the increase. Interpret your answer in simple English.
S.D.= $267
Average = $565+$3000= $3565

A magazine conducts an annual survey in which readers rate their favorite cruise ship. All ships are rated on a 100-point scale, with higher values indicating better service. A sample of 33 ships that carry fewer than 500 passengers resulted in an average rating of 85.59, and a sample of 44 ships that carry 500 or more passengers provided an average rating of 81.40. Assume that the population standard deviation is 4.55 for ships that carry fewer than 500 passengers and 3.97 for ships that carry 500 or more passengers.
A) What is the point estimate of the difference between the population mean rating for ships that carry fewer than 500 passengers and the population mean rating for ships that carry 500 or more passengers? (Use smaller cruise ships − larger cruise ships.)

This creates a higher probability of creating double entries, difficulties in placing and receiving orders, and time-consuming processes of locating stock, among other errors. Suppose you are appointed as a purchasing officer of a small business. You are asked to manage the purchases of NIDO (powder milk). The annual demand = 1500 units of NIDO, Delivered purchase cost = R25/units, Annual carrying cost percentage= 15percent, Order cost = R35/order. The lead time is 10 working days. Assuming 20 working days per month.

Pat James, the purchasing agent for a local plant of the Oakden Electronics Division, was considering the possible purchase of a component from a new supplier. The component’s purchase price, $0.90, compared favorably with the standard price of $1.10. Given the quantity that would be purchased, Pat knew that the favorable price variance would help to offset an unfavorable variance for another component. By offsetting the unfavorable variance, his overall performance report would be impressive and good enough to help him qualify for the annual bonus. More importantly, a good performance rating this year would help him to secure a position at division headquarters at a significant salary increase.
Purchase of the part, however, presented Pat with a dilemma. Consistent with his past behavior, Pat made inquiries regarding the reliability of the new supplier and the part’s quality. Reports were basically negative. The supplier had a reputation for making the first two or three deliveries on…
