Problem 1
An automobile manufacturer employs sales representatives who make calls on dealers. The manufacturer wishes to compare the effectiveness of four different call-frequency plans for the sales representatives. Thirty-two representatives are chosen at random from the sales force and randomly assigned to the four call plans (eight per plan). The representatives follow their plans for 6 months, and their sales for the 6-month study period are recorded. These data are listed in the file P19_01.xlsx.
Do the sample data support the hypothesis that at least one of the call plans helps produce a higher average level of sales? Perform an appropriate statistical test and report a p-value.
If the sample data indicate the existence of mean sales differences across the call plans, which plans produce significantly different average sales levels at the 95% level?
the data:
Plan A | Plan B | Plan C | Plan D |
36 | 39 | 44 | 31 |
40 | 45 | 43 | 43 |
32 | 54 | 38 | 46 |
44 | 53 | 40 | 43 |
35 | 46 | 41 | 36 |
41 | 42 | 35 | 49 |
44 | 35 | 37 | 46 |
42 | 39 | 37 | 48 |
