Centre Island Kayaks has been manufacturing a premium line of sea kayaks for the past 12 years. These kayaks are marketed throughout North America in specialty stores and are among the highest quality and highest priced kayaks on the market. About 85% of the company’s sales are in the United States, the remainder in Canada. The company is proud of its kayaks, which frequently win awards for its design. The company makes one model which it sells to the specialty stores at a price of $1,890. The average selling price of the kayak is $2,900.

Unfortunately, because of the weak growth of the sport, the market for the high-end kayak has been declining for several years. Kayaks tend to last a long time and the high end market is saturated. As a consequence, annual demand for Centre Island Kayaks has peaked at 740 units and is forecast to remain at that level over the next three years. The company has not anticipated the flat growth in demand and recently expanded its facilities. It now has the capacity to produce 1,100 kayaks annually. The company’s income statement for the previous year, in which it sold 740 kayaks is set out below:

Mountain Co-op is a Canadian cooperative retail chain with stores in several Canadian cities. It has recently approached Centre Island Kayaks and requested that the company prepare a “private label” its kayak for sale by Mountain Coop. The retailer has offered a long-term contract to purchase 300 kayaks annually for the next years at a price of $1,100 per kayak. It is not willing to pay a higher price because it plans to sell the kayak at a retail price of only $1,695. Because this sale would involve a private label for an existing model, the company would have no development costs for this order. Furthermore, it would not have to pay its regular commission rate of 10% as the order was not brought in by the sales force.

The president of Centre Island Kayaks is interested in the Mountain Co-op offer even though the price is well below Centre Island’s normal price. The president’s one concern is that the company may see a decline in sales with existing retailers, in that some customers will comparison shop and find the same-quality kayak available at a lower price in Mountain Co-op stores. The president has engaged you, a well respected business consultant, for help in deciding what to do.

What is the source of bias in each of the following situations the sample suffers from and why?

a) A health survey was conducted among households in a community that were selected at random from the telephone directory. In this community, 4% of households have no telephone and another 35% have unlisted telephone numbers.

b) Respondents to a lifestyle survey may not truthfully answer a question on the use of illegal drugs.

c) A researcher is interested in studying the natural behavior of chimpanzee. Initially the chimps would flee at the sight of him and he had to observe them from a distance with binoculars. But he persisted until the animals eventually got accustomed enough to him to ignore him.

Is college worth it? Among a simple random sample of 300 American adults who do not have a four-year college degree and are not currently enrolled in school, 147 said they decided not to go to college because they could not afford school.

1. Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college because they cannot afford it, and interpret the interval in context. Round to 4 decimal places.

2. Suppose we wanted the margin of error for the 99% confidence level to be about 3.5%. What is the smallest sample size we could take to achieve this? Note: For consistency's sake, round your z* value to 3 decimal places before calculating the necessary sample size.

Is college worth it? Among a simple random sample of 350 American adults who do not have a four-year college degree and are not currently enrolled in school, 130 said they decided not to go to college because they could not afford school.

NOTE: While performing the calculations, do not used rounded values. For instance, when calculating a p-value from a test statistic, do not use a rounded value of the test statistic to calculate the p-value. Preserve all the decimal places at each step.

Enter at least 4 decimal places for each answer in WeBWorK.

1. A newspaper article states that only a minority of the Americans who decide not to go to college do so because they cannot afford it and uses the point estimate from this survey as evidence. What are the correct hypotheses for conducting a hypothesis test to determine if these data provide strong evidence supporting this statement?

A. ?0:?=0.5H0:p=0.5, ??:?>0.5HA:p>0.5
B. ?0:?=0.5H0:p=0.5, ??:?<0.5HA:p<0.5
C. ?0:?=0.5H0:p=0.5, ??:?≠0.5HA:p≠0.5

2. Calculate the test statistic for this hypothesis test.

3. Calculate the p-value for this hypothesis test.

4. Based on the p-value, we have:
A. very strong evidence
B. little evidence
C. strong evidence
D. extremely strong evidence
E. some evidence
that the null model is not a good fit for our observed data.
