The Getz Products Company is investigating the possibility of producing and marketing backyard storage sheds. Undertaking this project would require the construction of either a large or small manufacturing plant. The market for the product produced – storage sheds - could be either favorable or unfavorable. Getz, of course, has the option of not developing the product at all.
With a favorable market, a large facility would give Getz a net profit of $200,000. If the market is unfavorable, a $180,000 net loss would occur. A small plant would result in a net profit of $100,000 in a favorable market, but a net loss of $20,000 would be encountered if the market was unfavorable.
Getz Products’ POM manager believes that the probability of a favorable market is the same as that of an unfavorable market (.50/.50)
Suppose that Getz could have their marketing department perform a survey at a cost of $10,000. Getz would then use the results of the survey to decide whether to build a large plant or a small plant, or not to build at all
If the company decides not to conduct the survey, the probabilities and payoffs given previously apply.
If the company decides to conduct the survey, it will result in either a favorable or unfavorable forecast.
If the forecast is favorable, the probability of the market actually being favorable is 0.78, the probability of the market being unfavorable is 0.22. If a large plant is then built, the final result would be a net profit of $190,000 with a favorable market and a net loss of $190,000 with an unfavorable market. If a small plant is built, the final result would be a net profit of $90,000 with a favorable market and a net loss of $30,000 with an unfavorable market. If no plant is built the net loss will be $10,000 (the cost of the forecast survey).
If the forecast is unfavorable, the probability of the market actually being favorable is 0.27, the probability of the market being unfavorable is 0.73. The final results would be the same as above: if a large plant is then built, the final result would be a net profit of $190,000 with a favorable market and a net loss of $190,000 with an unfavorable market. If a small plant is built, the final result would be a net profit of $90,000 with a favorable market and a net loss of $30,000 with an unfavorable market. If no plant is built the net loss will be $10,000 (the cost of the forecast survey).
We estimate the probability of a favorable survey to be 0.45 and the probability of an unfavorable survey to be 0.55.
Draw and Solve a Decision Tree to determine the best plan for Getz.

A statistical program is recommended.
The Consumer Reports Restaurant Customer Satisfaction Survey is based upon 148,599 visits to full-service restaurant chains.†Assume the following data are representative of the results reported. The variable type indicates whether the restaurant is an Italian restaurant or a seafood/steakhouse. Price indicates the average amount paid per person for dinner and drinks, minus the tip. Score reflects diners' overall satisfaction, with higher values indicating greater overall satisfaction. A score of 80 can be interpreted as very satisfied. (Let x1 represent average meal price, x2 represent type of restaurant, and y represent overall customer satisfaction.)
Restaurant | Type | Price ($) | Score |
---|---|---|---|
Bertucci's | Italian | 16 | 77 |
Black Angus Steakhouse | Seafood/Steakhouse | 24 | 79 |

Sampling Distributions and the Central Limit Theorem:
The National Survey of Student Engagement asks college students questions about the quality of their education. In 2018, NSSE reported the following result about college freshman:
During the current school year, about how often have you used numerical information to examine a real-world problem or issue (unemployment, climate change, public health, etc.)?
Mean: 2.29 SD: .92
These results were based on a survey of over 500,000 students from 725 institutions. Suppose we want to see how Coker College students compare to the national results by taking independent, random samples of 35 students each. Find the mean μ_x ̅ and standard deviation σ_x ̅ of this sampling distribution. (Hint: Use the Central Limit Theorem)
Find the probability that the sample mean of a random sample of 35 Coker College students for number of times using numerical information to examine real world issues is more than 3.
In this class, we've used numerical data to examine crime, genetic traits of fungus, political polling, and many other real-world topics. Would it be appropriate to say our statistics class sample of 19 students is unusual compared to the national average? Why or why not?

Mercury is a persistent and dispersive environmental contaminant found in many ecosystems around the world. When released as an industrial by-product, it often finds its way into aquatic systems where it can have deleterious effects on various avian and aquatic species. The accompanying data on blood mercury concentration (µg/g) for adult females near contaminated rivers in a state was read from a graph in an article.

a) A data is collected from Lab A. Sample mean is 12, SD is 2.4 and sample size if 16. Another set of data from Lab B have a mean of 10 (assuming SDB is also 2.4 and nB=16). If we choose α = 0.05, do you think mean of Lab B is close enough to be considered the “same” as that of Lab A? Why?
b) Same as problem 4), except SD of Lab B is SDB=4.4. If we choose α = 0.05, do you think the mean of Lab B is close enough to be considered the “same” as that of Lab A? Why?
