  1. The National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB) was established to limit the movement of physicians through the US who have negative histories of medical malpractice lawsuits, loss or suspension of licensure, and loss of privileges at previous employers. Although, theoretically, this provides a safety net, such safeguards are not always realized. Why do you think these safeguards may fall through the cracks?

Suppose a study determines that the amount of time that college students on a given campus work out each week changes from university to university. You are intrigued by this and randomly interview 60 BU students. You find that the average weekly gym time is 3 hours, and the standard deviation is 1 hour.

i. Is the sample mean normally distributed? Why or why not?  

ii. Your friend thinks the average gym time for Boston University students is equal to 2.5 hours. Test their hypothesis at a 5 percent significance level. Be sure to clearly state the null hypothesis, the rejection region, and your conclusion.

iii. Calculate the p-value. Offer a range if you can't obtain the exact value.

Suppose now you do know that the population standard deviation is 1.

iv. Find the 90 percent confidence interval for the population mean. State the general formula, fill in the appropriate values, and determine the exact boundaries of the interval. [20 points]

Southeastern College began the year with endowment investments of $1,200,000 and $700,000 of restricted cash designated by a donor for capital additions.

During the year an additional $500,000 donation was received for capital additions. These funds, together with those contributed in the prior year, were used to purchase 150 acres of land adjacent to the university.

An alum contributed $200,000 to the permanent endowment and pledged to provide an additional $400,000 early next year. The cash was immediately invested.

By terms of the endowment agreement, interest and dividends received on the investments are restricted for scholarships. Gains or losses from changes in the fair value of the investments, however, are not distributed but remain in the endowment. During the year, $48,000 of interest and dividends were received on endowment investments.

At year-end, the fair value of the investments had increased by $7,000.


Required:
Prepare journal entries to record the above transactions assuming:
a. Southeastern College is a public university.
b. Southeastern College is a private university.

An investigator in the Statistics Department of a large university is interested in the effect of exercise in maintaining mental ability. She decides to study the faculty members aged 40 to 50 at his university, looking separately at two groups: The ones that exercise regularly, and the ones that don’t. There turn out to be several hundred people in each group, so she takes simple random sample of 25 persons from each group, for detailed study. One of the things she does is to administer an IQ test to the sample people, with the following results: Regular Exercise No Regular Exercise Sample size 25 25 Average score 130 120 Standard deviation 15 15 The investigator concludes that exercise does indeed help to maintain mental ability among the faculty members aged 40 to 50 at his university. Is this conclusion justified? Explain whether you agree with her and show your reasoning mathematically. (20 points)
