Determine if each of the following statements is true or false

1. As the confidence interval percentage number increases the confidence interval will get wider.
2. Confidence intervals always contain the population value (parameter).
3. As the confidence interval percentage number increases the margin of error will increase
4. As the sample size increases the standard error will increase
5. If the test statistic is too small (negative) or too large (positive), the p-value would be large

A watchdog association claims that the percentage of Americans who agree that the government is inefficient and wasteful is different from 70%. A researcher wants to test this claim. The researcher conducts a survey and finds that out of a random sample of 1175 Americans, 785 agreed with this view.

17. The standardized test statistic for a hypothesis test which tests whether the sample proportion is equal to the hypothesized population proportion is equal to: a, 2.387 b 2.378 c. -2.387

18. The probability value of the event that the standardized test statistic would assume a value as large as that calculated in question 17 is: a. 0.0017 b. 0.017 c. 0.17

19. By comparing the probability value calculated in question 16 with a level of significance of 0.01 in a hypothesis test, we can conclude that a. the proportion of Americans who agree that the government is inefficient and wasteful is not equal to 70%. b. the proportion of Americans who agree that the government is inefficient and wasteful is equal to 70% c. the proportion of Americans who agree that the government is inefficient and wasteful is greater than 70%

20. The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who agree that the government is inefficient and wasteful will fall between: a. (0.632, 0.703) b. (0.641, 0/695) c. (0.645, 0.691)

What is the percentage change in price for a zero coupon bond if the yield changes from 6.5% to 9%? The bond has a face value of $1,000 and it matures in 20 years. Use the price determined from the first yield, 6.5%, as the base in the percentage calculation.

1.

When beginning and ending inventories are equal in terms of the percentage of completion for both direct materials and conversion costs:

Select one:

a. The FIFO and weighted-average methods of process costing will result in different dollar amounts for both direct materials and conversion costs of costs being transferred to the next department

b. The FIFO and weighted-average methods of process costing will result in the same dollar amount of costs being transferred to the next department for direct materials but a different dollar amount for conversion costs.

c. The FIFO and weighted-average methods of process costing will result in the same dollar amount of costs being transferred to the next department

d. None of the statements listed are correct.

2.

If fixed overhead-cost rates were based on actual short-term usage, periods of higher demand would result in:

Select one:

a. Could be higher or lower costs per unit

b. The same costs per unit
