You are considering the risk-return of two mutual funds for investment. The relatively risky fund promises an expected return of 14.7% with a standard of 15.6%. The relatively less risky fund promises an expected return and standard deviation of 6.4% and 3.8%, respectively. Assume that the returns are approximately normally distributed. Using normal probability calculations and complete sentences, give your assessment of the likelihood of getting, on one hand, a negative return and on the other, a return above 10% with these funds. You may choose to use excel normal distribution formulas, but if you do, give the explicit formulas. Offer some remarks about your possible investment approach.

If H_0: pi = .81 and H_a: pi not equal to .81, do we reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis at the alpha = .01 level? (reject or fail to reject)

2) Suppose you conducted a significance test with an alpha = .01 significance level. At the end of the test you concluded to reject the null hypothesis. If you had instead used alpha = .10, would you have rejected the null hypothesis, failed to reject the null hypothesis, or is there not enough information? (reject, fail to reject, or not enough)

3) Suppose you conducted a significance test with an alpha = .10 significance level. At the end of the test you concluded to reject the null hypothesis. If you had instead used alpha = .01, would you have rejected the null hypothesis, failed to reject the null hypothesis, or is there not enough information? (reject, fail to reject, or not enough)

Let n = 100, p_hat = .35, H_0: pi = .25, H_a: pi > .25, and alpha = .05. Use this information to answer 4), 5) , and 6).

4) If p_hat = .4 and everything else stayed the same, would the power increase or decrease?

5) If alpha = .01 and everything else stayed the same, would the power increase or decrease?

6) If n = 50 and everything else stayed the same, would the power increase or decrease?

7) If alpha = .01 and the p-value is .0144, what type of error is possible in this test? (type I or type II)  (Hint: you need to first think about the test decision)

A college football coach was interested in whether the college’s strength development class increased his

players’ maximum lift (in pounds) on the bench press exercise.  He asked four of his players to participate

in the study.  The amount of weight they could each lift was recorded before they took the strength

development class.  After completing the class, the amount of weight they could each lift was again

measured.  The data are as follows.  

Weight (in pounds)

Player 1

Player 2

The coach wants to know if the strength development class makes his players stronger, on average.  Use

an  significance level to test the claim that the mean amount of weight lifted increases after taking

the strength development class.  (Assume that the paired sample data are simple random samples and that

the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal.)

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC),76 million people in the US get diarrhea and upset stomachs each year. Most of these infections can be prevented by regularly washing one’s hands. A microbiologist believes that a majority (i.e. more than 50%) of women wash their hands after using the bathroom. She collects a sample of 40 women, calculates p, and performs a hypothesis test at alpha = 0.05.

(a) Give the hypotheses which the microbiologist wants to test.

(b) Describe a Type II error in terms of this problem.
