To test whether the mean time needed to mix a batch of material is the same for machines produced by three manufacturers, a chemical company obtained the following data on the time (in minutes) needed to mix the material.
| Manufacturer | ||
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 21 | 27 | 20 |
| 26 | 26 | 20 |
| 23 | 32 | 23 |
| 26 | 27 | 17 |
a) Use these data to test whether the population mean times for mixing a batch of material differ for the three manufacturers. Use α = 0.05.
Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Find the p-value. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value =
b) At the α = 0.05 level of significance, use Fisher's LSD procedure to test for the equality of the means for manufacturers 1 and 3.
Find the value of LSD. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
LSD =
Find the pairwise absolute difference between sample means for manufacturers 1 and 3.

You think that, in addition to cannabis use, road conditions may also affect driving abilities and contribute to an increased risk of road accidents. You suggest that further testing be made using 5 different road-condition scenarios in the virtual driving simulator. Your proposal is accepted and a new group of 60 individuals are solicited to participate in the study and are randomly assigned to one of the various treatment groups.

Jiffy Corporation has its seen its earning increase steadily each quarter from 2004 (its founding) through 2008. Because of the recession, Jiffy has struggled to provide investors with the same level of growth. Jiffy’s CEO, COO and CFO whose wealth is significantly leveraged by Jiffy’s equity-based compensation, are trying to focus on how to keep the company on a growth climb despite the hard time. Interestingly, each quarter, Jiffy has been able to meet or beat the investor’s forecasts. Jiffy’s typical business model is to ship its products to customers on account with payments due within 30 days after delivery. Jiffy’s products are manufactured in two plants, one in Columbus, Ohio and the other in Houston, Texas. Jiffy’s inventory is stored in 20 different warehouses located in 15 states. Many of Jiffy’s smaller customers are start-up companies. Surprisingly, Jiffy has a relatively rate of uncollectible accounts relative to others in its industry. Anderson & Cooper is Jiffy’s external auditor. You are the engagement partner assigned to Jiffy’s audit. Please respond the following question: 1. What are some of the red flags for possible management fraud based on the client’s profile?
2. Identify three types of management (financial statement)
fraud that might be attempted in
this situation. What red flags will you look for to identify the
frauds, and how will the
frauds be attempted?

BandHub Pte Ltd is a company incorporated in Singapore and adopts the Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (SFRSs). It provides voice and data services as well as sells handphones. On 1 January 20X1, BandHub enters into sales contracts with two different customers: Customer X and Customer Y. Both customers choose the same handphone and the same monthly service plan. The standalone selling price for the handphone is $480 (cost of the handphone is $350) and the standalone selling price of the service plan is $60 per month. Customer X purchases the handphone for $480 and enters into a cancellable contract to receive the voice and data services for $60 per month. Customer Y enters into a 24-month service contract for $60 per month and pays $200 for the handphone.
(a) Determine the allocation of the transaction prices for both
customers and the revenue to be recognised for the month of January
and February. Explain your answers using FRS 115 - Revenue from
Contracts with Customers.
(b) To activate the voice and data services, Bandhub Pte Ltd
charges the customers an upfront, non-refundable fee of $12. How
should this activation fee be treated under FRS 115 - Revenue from
Contracts with Customers.

Customers arrive at a department store according to a Poisson process with an average of 12 per hour.
a. What is the probability that 3 customers arrive between 12:00pm and 12:15pm?
b. What is the probability that 3 customers arrive between 12:00pm and 12:15pm and 6 customers arrive between 12:30pm and 1:00pm?
c. What is the probability that 3 customers arrive between 12:00pm and 12:15pm or 6 customers arrive between 12:30pm and 1:00pm?
d. What is the probability that a total of 10 customers arrive between 12:00pm and 12:15pm and 12:45pm and 1:00pm? That is, the total count is 10 for both of these time intervals combined.
