senior accounting major at Midsouth State University has job offers from four CPA firms. To explore the offers further, she asked a sample of recent trainees how many months each worked for the firm before receiving a raise in salary. The sample information is submitted to Minitab with the following results: Analysis of Variance Source df SS MS F P Factor 3 28.17 9.39 5.37 0.010 Error 15 26.26 1.75 Total 18 54.43 What is the decision rule? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) At the 0.05 level of significance, is there a difference in the mean number of months before a raise was granted among the four CPA firms?

Suppose you are a consultant to a fast food chain. The fast food chain is interested in measuring the population variance in the number of customers it has on adaily basis in all its stores in the U.S. However, it is limited in its ability to track this number across all stores and has to select a sample. Think critically about thefollowing questions:1. There are two estimators for the population variance with different levels of bias and variance. Explain how you would go about choosing between thesetwo estimators.2. You are interested in coming up with a 95% confidence interval for the population variance. How would you go about deciding the number of outlets tosample?

Q. Which of the following is true of heteroscedasticity? Options- a. Population R-squared is affected by the presence of heteroscedasticity. b. Heteroscedasticity causes inconsistency in the ordinary least squares estimators. c. The ordinary least squares estimators are not the best linear unbiased estimators if heteroscedasticity is present. d. It is not possible to obtain F statistics that are robust to heteroscedasticity of an unknown form.
I have data on the mean price charged for knee replacements (the variable is called, meancharge) at a sample of US hospitals.

ADVERSE SELECTIONSomet Health Insurance Company wants to sell a health insurance product for $700 permonth. There is no requirement for healthy people to have insurance coverage. Thecompany conducts a survey to see how different populations respond to the proposed cost.People with no illnesses and disabilities, generally the young and healthy, respond that theydo not spend $700 on healthcare in an entire year, and most feel they would not waste somuch money on premiums when the chance of needing surgery or expensive healthcaretreatments is so small. However, older, sicker people think that $700 per month is a greatdeal, as most of them spend far in excess of this amount on healthcare. It seems like agreat deal for them. What will happen to the costs of the health insurance if only the older, sicker peopleenroll?
A monopolist sells its product in two di§erent countries. The demand in country 1 is Q1 = 50-0.5P1, whereas the demand in country 2 is Q2 = 25-0.25P2. The firm's cost function is C(Q)=10+0.5Q2, where Q = Q1 + Q2.a) Calculate the amount of the product that the profit maximizing monopolist should sell in each country. Q1*=?, Q2*=?b) The determinantal test suggests that the firm's profit function (which one is correct) is locally concave around the critical point, but not elsewhere is globally concave is locally convex around the critical point, but not elsewhere is globally convex has a saddle point at the critical point
