Do male college students spend more time than female college students using a computer? This was one of the questions investigated by the authors of an article. Each student in a random sample of 46 male students at a university in England and each student in a random sample of 38 female students from the same university kept a diary of how he or she spent time over a three-week period.

For the sample of males, the mean time spent using a computer per day was 45.1 minutes and the standard deviation was 63.3 minutes. For the sample of females, the mean time spent using a computer was 39.4 minutes and the standard deviation was 57.3 minutes. Is there convincing evidence that the mean time male students at this university spend using a computer is greater than the mean time for female students? Test the appropriate hypotheses using

α = 0.05.

(Use a statistical computer package to calculate the P-value. Use μmalesμfemales. Round your test statistic to two decimal places, your df down to the nearest whole number, and your P-value to three decimal places.)

Sage Corporation provides a defined contribution pension plan for its employees. Under the plan, the company deducts 6% of each employee’s gross pay for each bi-weekly pay period. The company also contributes 7% of the employees’ gross pay to the pension plan. The combined pension contributions are then submitted to the pension trustee within 11 days of the end of the month in which the pay was earned.

For the first pay period of October (from Sunday October 1 to October 14, 2020), Sage’s total gross payroll was $171,000. Total gross payroll for the period October 15 through Saturday, October 28, 2020, was $162,000. The total anticipated payroll for the period October 29 through November 10, 2020, was $180,000 (employees worked Monday through Friday each week). On November 10, 2020, Sage submitted the pension contributions to the trustee for the month of October (including accruals up to and including October 31).

a. Prepare the October 14 journal entry to record the payroll, including employee and employer contributions to the pension plan. For simplicity, ignore income taxes and other statutory deductions.

b. Prepare the October 28 journal entry to record the payroll, including employee and employer contributions to the pension plan. For simplicity, ignore income taxes and other statutory deductions.

c. Prepare the October 31 journal entry to accrue the last two days of October’s payroll, including employee and employer contributions to the pension plan. For simplicity, ignore income taxes and other statutory deductions.
