A business school conducted a survey of companies in its state. It mailed a questionnaire to 200 small companies, 200 medium-sized companies, and 200 large companies. The rate of non response is important in deciding how reliable survey results are. Here are the data on response to this survey:

Test whether there is an association between the size of a company and the response rate at a .05 level of significance. Be sure to include the hypotheses, the test statistic, critical value, drawing of your distribution, and conclusion in the context of the problem.

Group of answer choices

$215 and $335

$235 and $315

$215 and $315

$255 and $295

$235 and $335

3) Based on national data, the amount of sleep per night of all U.S. adults follows a normal distribution with a mean of 7.5 hours and a standard deviation of 1.2 hours.

Using the Standard Deviation Rule, there is a 68% probability that U.S adults get between:

Group of answer choices

5.1 and 8.7 hours of sleep

3.9 and 11.1 hours of sleep

6.3 and 8.7 hours of sleep

6.3 and 9.9 hours of sleep

5.1 and 9.9 hours of sleep

4) According to national data, 70% of all credit card users in the U.S. do not pay their card bill in full every month (p = .70). Suppose that a random sample of size n = 500 credit cards users is chosen.

Use the Standard Deviation Rule and the properties of the sampling distribution of p-hat. There is a 95% chance that, in any random sample of 500 credit card users, the proportion of those who do not pay their bills in full every month will be between:

Group of answer choices

.60 and .80

.55 and .85

.64 and .76

.66 and .74

5) According to national data on the sleeping habits of adults, the amount of sleep per night of all U.S. adults follows a normal distribution with a mean of 7.5 hours and a standard deviation of 1.2 hours. A study surveyed a random sample of 700 U.S. adults and found that their average amount of sleep per night was 6.85 hours with a standard deviation of 1.88 hours.

At the beginning of the school year, Craig Kovar decided to prepare a cash budget for the months of September, October, November, and December. The budget must plan for enough cash on December 31 to pay the spring semester tuition, which is the same as the fall tuition. The following information relates to the budget:

a. Prepare a cash budget for September, October, November, and December. Use the minus sign to indicate cash outflows, a decrease in cash or cash payments.

b. What are the budget implications for Craig Kovar?

Craig can see that his present plan will not provide  sufficient cash. If Craig did not budget but went ahead with the original plan, he would be $_____ short  at the end of December, with no time left to adjust.

A safety officer wants to prove that the average speed of cars driven by a school is less than 25 mph. Suppose that a random sample of 14 cars shows an average speed of 24.0 mph, with a sample standard deviation of 2.2 mph. Assume that the speeds of cars are normally distributed.

Provide the notation for the underlined value. That is, what does the underlined value represent?

A car being driven by a cyber school physics student is moving with a velocity of 100 km/hr. As the car comes over the hill the student notices a train crossing the highway 0.4 km in front of him. If he immediately applies the brakes which can give the car a deceleration of 1.0 m/s2, determine whether or not a collision will occur. Explain and show all calculations!

The supply curve of work requiring a high school degree or less is Q_S = - 13,000 + 2000P and the demand for such work is Q_D = 11,000 - 1000P. Assume this is a competitive market.

1. What is the market wage and quantity?

2. What quantity is hired if a minimum wage of $10 is imposed? What is the deadweight loss (DWL) of this policy?

3. Instead of a minimum wage, policymakers introduce a $1.5 wage subsidy (think EITC). What is the quantity of work supplied under this policy? What is the DWL of this policy?

4. What percentage of the subsidy is captured by the employers? (Hint: the buyer's burden is represented by ϵ S ϵ S − ϵ D)

Yamindi was raised on a farm in the Northern Territory. While in high school, he was an active member of the local rural youth club and raised several prize animals that he sold at auction at state and local shows. He saved his earnings and by the time he finished secondary school, Yamindi had nearly $4,700 in a savings account. He was undecided whether to go on to tertiary education or use his savings in a business venture. Because of his love for animals, he believed he could successfully operate a pet warehouse store and decided to use the summer months as a trial.

During the month of October 2019, Yamindi located a small building that he could rent for $100 per month. After transferring $3,700 from his savings account to a business bank account in the name of Pet Warehouse, he paid cash out of the account for rent and the purchase of supplies. Although he would not keep a full set of accounting records, he decided to deposit all receipts from sales into the bank account and to make all payments by direct debit out of the account. In this way he would have a relatively complete record of his business activities. Yamindi also kept a daily work book in which he recorded all sales to customers.

On 1 November, Yamindi opened his warehouse to the public. During the first 3 months, he was unusually busy. Early in February he needed to make a decision on continuing the operation of the business or to enrol for the first semester at university. To help him make this important decision, Yamindi reviewed his bank account and daily sales book to determine how well he had done. The review disclosed the following.

Question: Prepare an income statement for Yamindi’s Pet Warehouse for the 3-month period from 1 November 2019 to 31 January 2020.
