Polzin Company had sales in 2010 of $1,800,000 on 60,000 units. Variable costs totalled $860,000, and fixed costs totaled $550,000.

A new raw material is available that will decrease the variable costs per unit by 20% (or $2.80). However, to process the new raw material, fixed operating costs will increase by $65,000. Management feels that one-half of the decline in the variable costs per unit should be passed on to customers in the form of a sales price reduction. The marketing department expects that this sales price reduction will result in a 7.5% increase in the number of units sold.

Use for questions 1-6: To estimate the average amount that U.S. households donated to charity last year, a random sample of 2500 U.S. households were surveyed. Among the households in the sample, the mean amount donated to charity was $2987 with a standard deviation of $1017. 2. In 2010, the average U.S. household donated $3010 to charity. What is the alternative hypotheses that you will use to determine if the sample gives strong evidence that the average amount donated to charity among all U.S. households last year was different than in 2010. mu not equal to 3010 mu greater than 2987 mu equals 2987 mu equals 3010
