How productive are U.S. workers? One way to answer this question is to study annual profits per employee. A random sample of companies in computers (I), aerospace (II), heavy equipment (III), and broadcasting (IV) gave the following data regarding annual profits per employee (units in thousands of dollars).
| I | II | III | IV |
| 27.3 | 13.2 | 22.7 | 17.9 |
| 23.4 | 9.2 | 20.4 | 16.9 |
| 14.3 | 11.5 | 7.2 | 14.8 |
| 8.4 | 8.2 | 12.7 | 15.1 |
| 11.8 | 6.5 | 7.0 | 10.2 |
| 19.8 | 9.8 |
(b) Find SSTOT, SSBET, and SSW and check that SSTOT = SSBET + SSW. (Use 3 decimal places.)
| SSTOT | = | |
| SSBET | = | |
| SSW | = |
Find d.f.BET, d.f.W,
MSBET, and MSW. (Use 3 decimal
places for MSBET, and
MSW.)
| dfBET | = | |
| dfW | = | |
| MSBET | = | |
| MSW | = |
Find the value of the sample F statistic. (Use 3 decimal
places.)
What are the degrees of freedom?
(numerator)
(denominator)
(f) Make a summary table for your ANOVA test.
