A small school has only two 4th grade classes and two 5th grade classes. Each year, students at the school take the Nebraska Test of Basic Skills (NTBS) in math and Language Arts. The Excel file, 745 Project Data, contains all of the scores for a certain class tracked over their 4th and 5th grade years.
Create a frequency distribution and cumulative frequency distribution of the 4th Grade Math test scores for all of the students. Use 5 classes.
Create a histogram, frequency polygon, and ogive for the 4th Grade Math test scores for all of the students.
Create a box-and-whiskers plot for the 5th Grade LA test scores for all of the students.
Determine whether or not students in the two 4th grade classes have the same average scores in math, and whether or not students in the two 4th grade classes have the same average score in language arts. For both tests, use ? = 0.05.
It has been observed that Crenshaw’s students don’t seem to do in well in math. To investigate that, for the 19 students who had Crenshaw in 5th grade, determine whether or not their math scores decreased from 4th to 5th grades. Use ? = 0.05. Do the same for the 17 students who had Davis in 5th grade. What can you conclude from these tests?
On the other hand, Crenshaw’s students seem to excel in language arts. To investigate that, for the 19 students who had Crenshaw in 5th grade, determine whether or not their language arts scores increased from 4th to 5th grades. Use ? = 0.05. Do the same for the 17 students who had Davis in 5th grade. What can you conclude from these tests?
On the basis of questions 4 through 6, what would you, as an administrator, recommend regarding Crenshaw and Davis?
Determine whether or not there is a relationship between the math scores and the LA scores in 4th grade, and if there is a relationship between the math scores and the LA scores in 5th grade. Use ? = 0.05.

The Gourmand Cooking School runs short cooking courses at its small campus. Management has identified two cost drivers it uses in its budgeting and performance reports—the number of courses and the total number of students. For example, the school might run two courses in a month and have a total of 61 students enrolled in those two courses. Data concerning the company’s cost formulas appear below:
| Fixed Cost per Month | Cost per Course | Cost per Student |
|||||
| Instructor wages | $ | 2,910 | |||||
| Classroom supplies | $ | 280 | |||||
| Utilities | $ | 1,230 | $ | 65 | |||
| Campus rent | $ | 5,100 | |||||
| Insurance | $ | 2,200 | |||||
| Administrative expenses | $ | 3,700 | $ | 42 | $ | 5 | |
For example, administrative expenses should be $3,700 per month plus $42 per course plus $5 per student. The company’s sales should average $870 per student.
The company planned to run four courses with a total of 61 students; however, it actually ran four courses with a total of only 55 students. The actual operating results for September appear below:
| Actual | ||
| Revenue | $ | 50,170 |
| Instructor wages | $ | 10,920 |
| Classroom supplies | $ | 16,930 |
| Utilities | $ | 1,900 |
| Campus rent | $ | 5,100 |
| Insurance | $ | 2,340 |
| Administrative expenses | $ | 3,599 |
Required:
Prepare a flexible budget performance report that shows both revenue and spending variances and activity variances for September. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Brian just graduated from engineering school and landed a sweet job earning $71000 per year. He expects his salary to increase by 5.0% per year. At the end of each year he will invest 10% of his salary into an investment account that earns 7.0.% per year compounded annually. He hopes to retire in 45 years.
a. If all goes according to his plan, how much money will be in his retirement account when he retires?
b. After working for almost a year Brian decides he would rather spend Christmas in Mexico then put money in his retirement account. Each year he finds something else he wants to do with his retirement money until 15 years have passed and he realizes he has zero savings. Sure enough his salary increased by exactly what he had predicted over 15 years. He vows to start putting 10% of his salary away each year from then on. If all goes according to plan how much will be in his account after 30 more years when he reaches the age he would like to retire?
c. Brian is sad when he realizes how far he has fallen behind in his retirement planning. He decides to buy a lottery ticket hoping that he can use the winnings to put him back on track for his original retirement prediction. How much does he need to win and invest at the end of his 15th year working in order to get back to where he would have been if he had followed his original plan?

Old School Publishing Inc. began printing operations on January 1. Jobs 301 and 302 were completed during the month, and all costs applicable to them were recorded on the related cost sheets. Jobs 303 and 304 are still in process at the end of the month, and all applicable costs except factory overhead have been recorded on the related cost sheets. In addition to the materials and labor charged directly to the jobs, $7,000 of indirect materials and $11,200 of indirect labor were used during the month. The cost sheets for the four jobs entering production during the month are as follows, in summary form: Job 301 Job 302 Direct materials $10,200 Direct materials $21,000 Direct labor 8,000 Direct labor 15,400 Factory overhead 6,080 Factory overhead 11,704 Total $24,280 Total $48,104 Job 303 Job 304 Direct materials $23,000 Direct materials $14,200 Direct labor 18,000 Direct labor 12,200 Factory overhead — Factory overhead — Required: Journalize the Jan. 31 summary entries to record each of the following operations for January (one entry for each operation). Refer to the Chart of Accounts for exact wording of account titles. a. Direct and indirect materials used. b. Direct and indirect labor used. c. Factory overhead applied to all four jobs (a single overhead rate is used based on direct labor cost). d. Completion of Jobs 301 and 302. I am not sure how to do this journey entry.

Social networking is becoming more and more popular among school-going teenagers. Camden Research Group used a survey of students in several states to determine the percentage of students who use social networking sites. Assume that the results for surveys in Georgia, Maryland, Washington, and Wyoming are as follows.
| States | ||||
| Use Social Networking Sites |
Georgia | Maryland |
Washington |
Wyoming |
| Yes | 344 | 265 | 301 | 500 |
| No | 456 | 235 | 399 | 500 |
Answer the following 6 questions.
1. We wish to conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the proportion of students using social networking sites are equal for all four states. What is the value of your test statistic?
2. True or False: At least one state's population proportion is different from the others. (5% significance)
3. What is the sample proportion for Georgia?
4. Which state has the largest sample proportion?
5. Using the multiple comparison procedures, answer the following:
True or False: There is a significant difference between Georgia and Maryland. (5% significance)
6. Using the multiple comparison procedures, answer the following:
True or False: There is a significant difference between Wyoming and Maryland. (5% significance)
