Suppose data were collected on the number of customers that frequented a grocery stores on randomly selected days before and after the governor of the state declared a lock down due to COVID 19. A sample of 6 days before the lockdown were chosen as well as 6 days randomly chosen after the lock down was in place. The number of shoppers each day were as follows:
|
Before lock down |
After lock down |
|
100 |
60 |
|
110 |
50 |
|
115 |
70 |
|
120 |
90 |
|
145 |
40 |
|
130 |
50 |
This is interval/ratio data because they are characteristics of the days.

A scientist claims that pneumonia is associated with weight loss in mice. The table shows the weights (in grams) of six mice before infection and two days after the infection. At α=0.01 is there enough evidence to support the scientist’s claim? (Assume the samples are random and dependent, and the populations are normally distributed). Hint: We are testing the claim that the weight before pneumonia will be greater than the weight after.
Weight (before) 19.8 20.6 20.3 22.1 23.4 23.6
Weight (after) 18.4 19.6 19.6 20.7 22.2 23.0
a) State the null and alternative hypothesis
b) List the following to two decimal places a. ?̅ b. ??
c) Calculate the test statistic (two decimal places)
d) Calculate the p-value (three decimal places)
e) Reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Why?
f) State your conclusion in context of the problem

In an article titled "Learning To Keep Learning" in the New York Times, dated December 13, 2006, Thomas L. Friedman states:
"I listened to this with mixed emotions. Part of me said 'Gosh, wouldn't it be nice to have a government that was so focused on innovation -- instead of one that is basically anti-science.' My other emotion was skepticism. Oh, you know the line: Great Britain dominated the 19th century, America dominated the 20th and now China is going to dominate the 21st. It's game over.
"No question, China has been able to command an impressive effort to end illiteracy, greatly increasing its number of high school grads and new universities. But I still believe it is very hard to produce a culture of innovation in a country that censors [Google] which for me is a proxy for curtailing people's ability to imagine and try anything they want. You can command K-12 education. But you can't command innovation. Rigor and competence, without freedom, will take China only so far. China will have to find a way to loosen up, without losing control, if it wants to be a truly innovative nation."

An intensifying oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia has
created “very painful” market conditions for the world’s largest
crude oil producers. International benchmark Brent crude traded at
$32.97 Thursday, down almost 8%, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate
(WTI) stood at $30.40, around 7.8% lower. Oil prices have almost
halved since the start of the year.
Last week, Saudi Arabia failed to secure Moscow’s support for
deeper output cuts at a meeting of the Organization of the
Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, known as OPEC plus.
OPEC had proposed to deepen cuts by 1.5 million barrels per day and
Russia was asked to cut an extra 300,000 bpd.
“There was no point in cutting until after everyone understood how
sharply demand could fall. We cannot fight a falling demand
situation when there is no clarity about where the bottom (of
demand) is,” Pavel Sorokin, the Russia’s deputy energy minister,
said.
“It is very easy to get caught in a circle when, by cutting once,
you get into an even worse situation: oil prices would shortly
bounce back before falling again as demand continued to
fall.”
Cooperation between two (Saudi Arabia and Russia) of the world’s
three largest oil producers — the third is the United States —
appears to be at an end.

2. Calculate the net realizable value of receivables that will appear in the December 31, 2019 balance sheet.
- Accounts Receivable from #2
- Accounts Receivable collected from #3
= Ending Accounts Receivable Balance on December 31, 2019
- Allowance for Doubtful Accounts in #4
= Net Realizable Value of Receivables as of December 31, 2019
3. How much uncollectible accounts expense will appear on Tonka Industries Corporation income statement for the year ended December 31, 2020?
4. Calculate the net realizable value of receivables that will appear in the December 31, 2020 balance sheet. Hint: Remember that Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts are both balance sheet accounts, and their balances carry forward from year-to-year.
Beginning Accounts Receivable balance (ending balance on 12/31/19 calculated in #2 above)
+ Sales on account from #8
- Accounts Receivable collected from #9
- Write-offs during 2020 (from #5 and #7)
= Ending Accounts Receivable Balance as of December 31, 2020 ;
Beginning Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance (ending balance on 12/31/19)
- Write-offs during 2020 (from #5 and #7)
+ 2020 uncollectible accounts estimate in #10
= Ending Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Balance as of December 31, 2020 Accounts Receivable
- Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
