Federated South Insurance Company has developed a new screening program for selecting new sales agents. Their past experience indicates that 20% of the new agents hired fail to produce the minimum sales in their first year and are dismissed. Their ex- pectation is that this new screening program will reduce the percentage of failed new agents to 15% or less. If that occurs, they would save $1,000,000 in recruiting and training costs each year. At the end of the first year they want to develop an evaluation to determine if the new program is successful. The following questions are an important part of their re- search design.A total of 20 new agents were selected.a. If this group performs at the same level as past groups, what is the probability 17 or more success- fully meet their minimum sales goals in the first year?b. What is the probability 19 or more reach their min- imum sales goals given performance at the same level?c. If the program has actually increased the prob- ability of…
ABC enters into a contract to help DEF, a ramen restaurantto design a market strategy to compete with DEF. The contract spans twelve month. DEF will pay P80,000 at the beginning of each month. At the end of the contract, ABC either will give DEF a refund of P25,000 or will be entitled to an additional P15,000 bonus, depending on whether sales at DEF at year- end increased to a target level. At the inception of the contract , ABC estimates a 30% chance that it will not earn the bonus and calculates the contract price based on the expected value of future payments to be received. At the start of the fifth month, circumstances change and ABC revise the probability that it will earn the bonus to 80% What is the adjustment to the service revenue ?
Acompanysellinglicensesofnewe-commercesoftwareadvertisedthatfirmsusingthissoftware could obtain, on average during the first year, a minimum yield (in cost savings) of 20 percent on average on their software investment. To disprove the claim, we checked with 10 different firms which used the software. These firms reported the following cost-saving yields (in percent) during the first year of their operations: {17.0, 19.2, 21.5, 18.6, 22.1, 14.9, 18.4, 20.1, 19.4, 18.9}. Do we have significant evidence to show that the software company’s claim of a minimum of 20 percent in cost savings was not valid? Test using α = 0.05. Compute a 95% confidence interval for the average cost-saving yield estimate.
An insurance company has the business objective of reducing the amount of time it takes to approve applications for life insurance. The approval process consists of underwriting, which includes a review of the application, a medical information check, possible requests for additional medical information and medical exams, and a policy compilation stage in which the policy pages are generated and sent for delivery. The ability to deliver approved policies to customers in a timely manner is critical to the profitability of this service. During a period of one month, you collect a random sample of 27 approved policies, and the total processing time, in days, are: 73 19 16 64 28 28 31 90 61 56 31 56 22 18 45 48 17 18 17 91 92 64 50 51 69 16 17 In the past, the mean processing time was 45 days. At the 5% level of significance, is there evidence that the mean processing time has changed from 45 days? What assumption about the population distribution is needed in order to conduct this test?

The Majoring in Money study by Sallie Mae from December 2015 showed that most college students manage their credit cards in a reasonable way. It showed that almost two-thirds of students pay their credit card balance in full every month and 25% of students who own credit cards make partial payments that exceed the minimum amount due. You are curious to find out if credit card payment behavior of students has changed since 2015 and collect data from a random sample of 370 students. You find that 71 students are making partial payments on their credit cards that exceed the minimum amount due. Using α=0.01, complete parts a and b below.
An electronics retailer is developing a model for insur-ance policies on new cell phone purchases. It estimates that 60% of customers never make a claim, 25% of cus-tomers require a small repair costing an average of $50, and 15% of customers request a full refund costing $200.What is the long-term average cost the retailer shouldexpect to pay to its customers per claim?
In May 2008, CNN reported that Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) are plunging toward the "endangered list". Due to soaring oil prices and environmental concerns, consumers are replacing gas-guzzling vehicles with fuel-efficientsmaller cars. As a result, there has been a big drop in the demand for new as well as used SUVs. A sales manager of a used car dealership for SUVs believes that it takes more than 90 days, on average, to sell an sUV. In order to test his claim, he samples 40 recently sold SUVs and find that it took an average of 95 days to sell an SUV. He believes that the population standard deviation is fairly stable at 20 days. Determine if the sales manager's claim is justifiable at 0.05
Gulf Coast Electronics is ready to award contracts to suppliers for providing reservoir capacitors for use in its electronic devices. For the past several years, Gulf Coast Electronics has relied on two suppliers for its reservoir capacitors: Able Controls and Lyshenko Industries. A new firm, Boston Components, inquired into the possibility of providing a portion of the reservoir capacitors needed by Gulf Coast. The quality of products provided by Lyshenko Industries has been extremely high; in fact, only 0.5% of the capacitors provided by Lyshenko had to be discarded because of quality problems. Able Controls has also had a high quality level historically, producing an average of only 1% unacceptable capacitors. Because Gulf Coast Electronics has had no experience with Boston Components, it estimated Boston’s defective rate to be 10%. Gulf Coast would like to determine how many reservoir capacitors should be ordered from each firm to obtain 75,000 acceptable-quality capacitors to use…
CWD Business systems maintains a successful Telecom sales department for Top up call creditin which a clerk takes orders by telephone. If the clerk is occupied on one line, incoming phonecalls to the department are answered automatically by an answering machine and asked to wait.As soon as the clerk is free, the party that has waited the longest is transferred and answered first.Calls come in at a rate of about 15 per hour. The clerk is capable of taking an order in an averageof 3 minutes. Calls tend to follow a Poisson distribution, and service times tend to be exponential.The clerk is paid $15 per hour, but because of lost goodwill and sales, CWD loses about $30 perhour of customer time spent waiting for the clerk to take an order. Part B CWD is considering adding a second clerk to take calls. The store would pay that person thesame $15 per hour.Using appropriate formula for the multiple channel model, answer the following questions. a. What is the probability that no customers are…
Harvard Pilgrim, an insurance company, has reimbursed Cooley DickinsonHospital for a large number of health services. It appears that overpayments may haveoccurred on many of the reimbursements due to errors in the billing process, or billing fora more expensive procedure than was actually performed.

HarvardPilgrim suspects that it is being overcharged and wants to get its money back; so they hireyou to prove their claim. You audit a random sample of 500 reimbursements and find that20 of them involve overpayments. Perform an appropriate hypothesis test.
