In her book Red Ink Behaviors, Jean Hollands reports on the assessment of leading Silicon Valley companies regarding a manager's lost time due to inappropriate behavior of employees. Consider the following independent random variables. The first variable x1 measures manager's hours per week lost due to hot tempers, flaming e-mails, and general unproductive tensions. x1: 1 3 6 2 2 4 10 The variable x2 measures manager's hours per week lost due to disputes regarding technical workers' superior attitudes that their colleagues are "dumb and dispensable". x2: 8 3 2 7 9 4 10 3 (i) Use a calculator with sample mean and sample standard deviation keys to calculate x1, s1, x2, and s2.

Whenever an Alliance Air customer flies on a prepurchased seat, Alliance Air obtains $100 in profits. However, if Alliance Air has more customers seeking a seat then they have prepurchased, Alliance Air is forced to book that passenger on a seat purchased that day. In such a situation, Alliance Air has a profit of -$170 due to the high cost of same-day flights. If not all of their prepurchased seats are taken, then Alliance Air makes a profit of -$20 by selling the seats at a discount to passengers outside of their customer base. Based on their data, Alliance Air knows that number of customers seeking a flight on any day follows a Poisson distribution with mean 40.

Using this information, complete the following tasks/questions:

  1. Develop an Excel spreadsheet model which can calculate the daily profits for Alliance Air, given any particular demand for that day and assuming Alliance Air pre-purchased 37 seats on the plane.
  2. Using the given demand distribution, set-up your spreadsheet as a simulation model using daily profits as the output. Run the simulation assuming Alliance Air prepurchases 37 seats on the plane. What is the average daily profit in this scenario?
  3. How many seats would you recommend Alliance Air to prepurchase if they wanted to maximize their average daily profit? To answer this, modify the number of Pre-Purchased Daily Seats from 30 to 55 (in the increments of 5) and fill in the table provided with statistics about the expected daily profits (Note that the average might keep changing slightly as you record those values, that’s okay). What are the minimum and maximum daily profits if they were to purchase this quantity? What percentage of the time is Alliance Air’s daily profit above 2,250?

Suppose that we fit Model (1) to the n observations (y1, x11, x21), …, (yn, x1n, x2n). yi = β0 + β1x1i + β2x2i + εi , i = 1, …., n, (1) where ε’s are identically and independently distributed as a normal random variable with mean zero and variance σ2, i = 1, …, n , and all the x’s are fixed. a) Suppose that Model (1) is the true model. Show that at any observation yi , the point estimator of the mean response and its residual are two statistically independent normal random variables. b) Suppose the true model is Model (1), but we fit the data to the following Model (2) (that is, ignore the variable x2). yi = β 0 + β 1x1i + εi , i = 1, …., n. Assume that average of x1 =0, average of x2=0. The sum of x1i and x2i equals 0. Derive the least-squares estimator of β1 obtained from fitting Model (2). Is this least-squares estimator biased for β1 under Model (1)?

Quality Associates, Inc., a consulting firm, advises its clients about sampling and statistical procedures that can be used to control their manufacturing processes. In one particular application, a client gave Quality Associates a sample of 800 observations taken while that client’s process was operating satisfactorily. The sample standard deviation for these data was 0.21; hence, with so much data, the population standard deviation was assumed to be 0.21. Quality Associates then suggested that random samples of size 30 be taken periodically to monitor the process on an ongoing basis. By analyzing the new samples, the client could quickly learn whether the process was operating satisfactorily. When the process was not operating satisfactorily, corrective action could be taken to eliminate the problem. The design specification indicated that the mean for the process should be 12. The hypothesis test suggested by Quality Associates is as follows: ± H H :1 2 :1 2 0 a m m 5 Corrective action will be taken any time H0 is rejected. The samples listed in the following table were collected at hourly intervals during the first day of operation of the new statistical process control procedure. These data are available in the file Quality. Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3 Sample 4 11.55 11.62 11.91 12.02 11.62 11.69 11.36 12.02 11.52 11.59 11.75 12.05 11.75 11.82 11.95 12.18 11.90 11.97 12.14 12.11 11.64 11.71 11.72 12.07 11.64 11.71 11.72 12.07 11.80 11.87 11.61 12.05 12.03 12.10 11.85 11.64 11.94 12.01 12.16 12.39 11.92 11.99 11.91 11.65 12.13 12.20 12.12 12.11 12.09 12.16 11.61 11.90 11.93 12.00 12.21 12.22 12.21 12.28 11.56 11.88 12.32 12.39 11.95 12.03 11.93 12.00 12.01 12.35 11.85 11.92 12.06 12.09 11.76 11.83 11.76 11.77 12.16 12.23 11.82 12.20 11.77 11.84 12.12 11.79 12.00 12.07 11.60 12.30 12.04 12.11 11.95 12.27 11.98 12.05 11.96 12.29 12.30 12.37 12.22 12.47 12.18 12.25 11.75 12.03 11.97 12.04 11.96 12.17 12.17 12.24 11.95 11.94 11.85 11.92 11.89 11.97 12.30 12.37 11.88 12.23 12.15 12.22 11.93 12.25 1. Conduct a hypothesis test for each sample at the 0.01 level of significance and determine what action, if any, should be taken. Provide the test statistic and p value for each test. 2. Compute the standard deviation for each of the four samples. Does the conjecture of 0.21 for the population standard deviation appear reasonable? 3. Compute limits for the sample mean x around 12 m 5 such that, as long as a new sample mean is within those limits, the process will be considered to be operating satisfactorily. If x exceeds the upper limit or if x is below the lower limit, corrective action will be taken. These limits are referred to as upper and lower control limits for quality-control purposes. 4. Discuss the implications of changing the level of significance to a larger value. What mistake or error could increase if the level of significance is increased? Can you show it in excel of how you get the answers, Thanks

A political pollster is conducting an analysis of sample results in order to make predictions on election night. Assuming a​ two-candidate election, if a specific candidate receives at least 55​% of the vote in the​ sample, that candidate will be forecast as the winner of the election. You select a random sample of 100 voters. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c) below.

a. What is the probability that a candidate will be forecast as the winner when the population percentage of her vote is 50.1​%? The probability is nothing that a candidate will be forecast as the winner when the population percentage of her vote is 50.1​%. ​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)

b.

What is the probability that a candidate will be forecast as the winner when the population percentage of her vote is

55​%?

c.

What is the probability that a candidate will be forecast as the winner when the population percentage of her vote is

49​%

​(and she will actually lose the​ election)?

d.

Suppose that the sample size was increased to

400.

Repeat process​ (a) through​ (c), using this new sample size. Comment on the difference.
