A kayak race is held each August on the South Arm of Lake Charlevoix, Charlevoix County, Michigan. The "course" starts at the public launch in East Jordan, MI and ends at the DNR launch at Dutchman's Bay, a distance of approximately two nautical miles. Participants are individual paddlers in identical Old Town sit inside Sorrento 106sk kayaks. The organizer wants to investigate if there is a relationship between the amount of experience (three categories) and minutes to complete the course. She wants to control for age. She also wants suggestions about other data that might be collected to find additional relationships (e.g. water temperature).

The data from a random sample from a recent year's event is provided below:

  • Purpose: To learn how to analyze data from a two-way Anova and apply the results to a research scenario.
  • Instructions:
    • Enter the data below into the SPSS Data Editor (download the .sav file from D2L to check your work).
    • Run a two-way analysis of variance and create a line graph depicting the group means.
    • Use your results to answer the questions below, and then submit in D2L.

Research Scenario: You have been raising Bombina orientalis, or Oriental fire-bellied toads, and measured the frogs’ jumps in centimeters. Your latest study looks at males and females’ reactions to being raised in a room with another animal. You set up three terrariums, each with six male and six female frogs. Each terrarium is in a separate room. Let A1 = male frogs, A2 =female frogs, B1 = frogs raised in a room with a dog, B2 = frogs raised in a room with a cat, and B3 = frogs raised in a room with a parrot.

5 Sales system deficiencies
RST Co supplies a wide range of garden and agricultural products to trade and domestic customers. The company has 11 divisions, with each division specialising in the sale of specific products, for example, seeds, garden furniture, agricultural fertilizers. The company has an internal audit department which provides audit reports to the audit committee on each division on a rotational basis.
Products in the seed division are offered for sale to domestic customers via an internet site. Customers review the product list on the internet and place orders for packets of seeds using specific product codes, along with their credit card details, onto RST Co's secure server. Order quantities are normally between one and three packets for each type of seed. Order details are transferred manually onto the company's internal inventory control and sales system, and a two part packing list is printed in the seed warehouse. Each order and packing list is given a random alphabetical code based on the name of the employee inputting the order, the date, and the products being ordered.
In the seed warehouse, the packages of seeds for each order are taken from specific bins and dispatched to the customer with one copy of the packing list. The second copy of the packing list is sent to the accounts department where the inventory and sales computer is updated to show that the order has been dispatched. The customer's credit card is then charged by the inventory control and sales computer. Bad debts in RST are currently 3% of total sales.
Finally, the computer system checks that for each charge made to a customer's credit card account, the order details are on file to prove that the charge was made correctly. The order file is marked as completed confirming that the order has been dispatched and payment obtained.
Required
(a) In respect of sales in the seeds division of RST Co, prepare a report to be sent to the audit committee of RST Co which:
Identifies and explains five deficiencies in that sales system
Explains the possible effect of each deficiency
Provides a recommendation to alleviate each deficiency
(Note. Up to 2 marks will be awarded for presentation.)
(b) Explain the advantages to RST Co of having an audit committee.
(Total = 20 marks)

We assume that our wages will increase as we gain experience and become more valuable to our employers. Wages also increase because of inflation. By examining a sample of employees at a given point in time, we can look at part of the picture. How does length of service (LOS) relate to wages? The data here (data297.dat) is the LOS in months and wages for 60 women who work in Indiana banks. Wages are yearly total income divided by the number of weeks worked. We have multiplied wages by a constant for reasons of confidentiality.

(a) Plot wages versus LOS. Consider the relationship and whether or not linear regression might be appropriate. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn in this graph.)

(b) Find the least-squares line. Summarize the significance test for the slope. What do you conclude?

Wages = +  LOS
t =
P =


(c) State carefully what the slope tells you about the relationship between wages and length of service.

(d) Give a 95% confidence interval for the slope.
