Wall Street securities firms paid out record year-end bonuses of $ 125,500 per employee for 2005 (Fortune, February 6, 2006). Suppose we would like to take a sample of employees at the Jones & Ryan securities firm to see whether the mean year-end bonus is different from the reported mean of $ 125,500 for the population.

A 2006 report of the U.S. Surgeon General states that "there is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Nonsmokers exposed to secondhand smoke at home or work increase their risk of developing heart disease by 25 to 30 percent and lung cancer by 20 to 30 percent. The finding is of major public health concern due to the fact that nearly half of all nonsmoking Americans are still regularly exposed to secondhand smoke."
Consider the following data from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Center for Health Statistics, Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. All values are measured levels of serum cotinine (in ng/ml), a metabolite of nicotine—when nicotine is absorbed by the body, cotinine in produced.

Smokers = subjects reported tobacco use
ETS = nonsmokers exposed to environmental tobacco smoke at home or work
No ETS = nonsmokers with no exposure to environmental tobacco smoke at home or work
Use a Kruskal-Wallis test with a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the median cotinine levels are not all equal for these three groups. What do the results suggest about secondhand smoke?

Rick Flair, the controller of Figure Four, wants to use this ABC system to examine individual customer profitability within each distribution market. He focuses first on the Ma and Pa single-store distribution market. Using only two customers helps highlight the insights available with the ABC approach. Data pertaining to these two customers in August 2013 are as follows:

Flair ranks the individual customers in the Ma and Pa single-store distribution market on the basis of monthly operating income. The cumulative operating income of the top 20% of customers is $55,680. Figure Four reports operating losses of $18,290 for the bottom 40% of its customers. Make four recommendations that you think Figure Four should consider in light of this new customer-profitability information. |

The Computer Warehouse sells computer hardware, software, and supplies (such as paper). Individual customers just walk into the store, select merchandise, and must pay for their purchases in full before leaving the store. Corporate customers, however, call in orders in advance, so that the items are waiting to be picked up. Corporate customers may charge their purchases to their account. The Computer Warehouse mails corporate customers monthly statements that summarize all purchases made the prior month. Corporate customers pay the entire balance, as listed on the monthly statement, with one check or EFT transaction.
The Computer Warehouse purchases its inventory from more than a dozen different vendors. Orders are placed via telephone, fax, or on the supplier’s Web site. Most orders are delivered the next day. Most orders are filled completely in one shipment, but sometimes a supplier is out of stock of a particular item. In such situations, the bulk of the order is shipped immediately and the out-of-stock item is shipped separately as soon as it arrives (such shipments of back orders are never combined with any new orders placed by the Computer Warehouse). The Computer Warehouse pays for some of its purchases COD but usually pays by the 10th of the month for all purchases made the prior month. None of its suppliers allows it to make installment payments.
Requirements (Only Q3 and Q4)
1. Draw an REA Diagram for Computer Warehouse revenue cycle, complete with cardinalities.
2. Draw an REA Diagram for Computer Warehouse expenditure cycle, complete with cardinalities.
3. Draw an integrated REA diagram for the above two cycles, complete with proper cardinalities.
4. Develop a set of tables to implement the integrated REA diagram you developed earlier for the Computer Warehouse in a relational database. Specify a primary key for each table, and suggest at least one other attribute that should be included in each table.
