A researcher is studying the effects of inserting questions into instructional material for learning. There is doubt whether these questions would be more effective before or after the corresponding passage. In addition, the researcher wants to know the impact of factual and thought provoking questions. Students are randomly assigned to one of each of the four combination: position of question (before vs. after the passage) and type of question (factual vs. thought provoking). After 15 hours of studying under these conditions, the students are given a test on the content of the instructional materials. The test scores are below. What can be concluded with an α of 0.05?

The New York Division of MVP Sports Equipment Company manufactures baseball

gloves. Two production departments are used in sequence: the Cutting Department

and the Stitching Department. In the Cutting Department, direct material, consisting

of imitation leather is placed into production at the beginning of the process. Direct

labor and manufacturing overhead costs are incurred uniformly throughout the

process. The material is rolled to make it softer, and is then cut into the pieces

needed to produce baseball gloves. The predetermined overhead rate is 150% of

direct labor costs. MPV uses weighted average costing.

Sarasota Windows manufactures and sells custom storm windows for three-season porches. Sarasota also provides installation service for the windows. The installation process does not involve changes in the windows, so this service can be performed by other vendors. Sarasota enters into the following contract on July 1, 2020, with a local homeowner. The customer purchases windows for a price of $2,440 and chooses Sarasota to do the installation. Sarasota charges the same price for the windows irrespective of whether it does the installation or not. The customer pays Sarasota $2,040 (which equals the standalone selling price of the windows, which have a cost of $1,130) upon delivery and the remaining balance upon installation of the windows. The windows are delivered on September 1, 2020, Sarasota completes installation on October 15, 2020, and the customer pays the balance due.

Sarasota estimates the standalone selling price of the installation based on an estimated cost of $420 plus a margin of 30% on cost.

Prepare the journal entries for Sarasota in 2020. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts. Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,125.)
