RIVERA - ECE11 - Enabling Assessment Hypothesis Part 1

The document contains two hypothesis testing problems involving means and proportions. For the first problem, the null hypothesis is that the average capital share of members is equal to 16,000, and the alternative is that it is different. With a sample size of 15, test statistic of -0.15, and significance level of 1%, the null hypothesis failed to be rejected, meaning the average is not significantly different than 16,000. The second problem tests if the proportion of defective items from a machine exceeds 5%. With a sample of 800, 48 defects, a test statistic of 1.30, and significance level of 5%, the null hypothesis that the proportion is less than or equal to 5% failed to be rejected

Read, understand and solve each item carefully. Show your complete solution on the answer sheet column.

Direction: Solve each problem showing all the necessary steps and computations.
1. Given are the capital shares of 12 randomly chosen member accounts of a certain cooperative.
Shared Capital: 7500, 12800, 9650, 13000, 25000, 15000, 15500, 17250, 18600, 21050, 16750,
17800, 15000, 22100, 10210
Can it be claimed that the average capital share of the members is significantly different
from 16,000? Use a 1% level of significance and follow the necessary steps below: (10 points)

i. Null and Alternative Hypothesis (both in symbols and statement form)


 Two-tailed
 Ho: The average capital share of members is not significantly
different from 16,000
Ho:µ=16000
 HaThe average capital share of members is significantly different from
16,000 Ha:µ≠16000

ii. Level of Significance; sample size; test statistics,


 Level of significance=0.01; n=15; test statistics=-0.15; shared capital
Mean=15814; SD=4802.567
iii. Decision Rule
 Two-tailed test
iv. Computation: Paste here the solution you made using Excel

12800 Standard Error 1240.02

15500 Kurtosis -0.28
17250 Skewness 0.12

16750 Maximum 25000
17800 Sum 237210
15000 Count 15
22100 Confidence Level(99.0%) 3691.34
10210

t(confidence level 99%) 2.947


Test stats=(15814-16000)/(4802.57/(SQRT(15)))
Test stats= -0.15

v. Decision AND Conclusion:


 Decision: Failed to reject Ho as the computed t-value is inside the
unshaded region.
 Conclusion: The average capital share of the members is not significantly
different from 16,000

2. A sample of 800 items produced on a new machine showed that 48 of them are defective. The
factory will get rid the machine if the data indicates that the proportion of defective items is
significantly more than 5%. At a significance level of 5%, is there enough evidence to get rid of
the machine? The following steps should be indicated in your answer: (10 points)

i. Null and Alternative Hypothesis (both in symbols and statement form)


 One-tailed
 Ho: The proportion of defective materials is less than or equal
to 5%
Ho:µ≤0.05
 Ha: The proportion of defective materials is greater than or
equal to 5%
Ha: µ≥0.05

ii. Level of Significance; sample size; test statistics


 Level of Significance=0.05; n=800; test
statistics=1.30; p=0.06, CL= 0.95
iii. Decision Rule

 One-tailed test
iv. Computation: Paste here the solution you made using Excel; or write your manual
computation.

n 800 defect 80
P^ 0.100
q^ 0.900
CL 0.95 0.94 0.96
P 0.05 0.06 0.04
a 0.025 0.03 0.02
Z(0.025) 1.96

Test statistic=(0.06-0.05)/(SQRT((0.05(1-0.05))/800))
Test statistic 1.297771
v. Decision AND Conclusion:
 Decision: Failed to reject Ho since 1.30 is less than the z critical value of
1.96
 Conclusion: There is not enough evidence to get rid of the machine as
the proportion of defective materials is less than or equal to 5%.
