The manager of a men’s clothing catalog measured the market’s response to a $6 decrease in the usual price of his company’s oxford shirts by conducting a sales experiment. An A-B split was used to divide the company’s 120,000-customer mailing list into two groups. Customers in the control group were sent catalogs listing oxford shirts at their usual price of $40. Customers in the test group were sent catalogs listing the price of oxford shirts at $32.80. During the period of the test, customers in the control group purchased 700 oxford shirts, and customers in the test group purchased 889 oxford shirts.
What is the independent variable in this sales experiment? What is the dependent variable in this sales experiment?
What is the percent change in price in this experiment?
What is price elasticity indicated by the results of this experiment.
A company that has a 15% market share launches a marketing campaign. At the end of the campaign period, the company conducts a survey in order to assess whether its market share has increased.

b. What is the value of the test statistic?
c. What is the associated P-value?
d. State your conclusion using α = 0.05.
William's Department Store is trying to determine whether there is a difference in
mobile electronics sales for four different in-store locations. The company
randomly chooses 20 same-sized stores that have similar storewide net sales.
They randomly assign five stores to use the current mobile electronics aisle
(In-aisle), five stores to use the special front location (front), five stores to use the
kiosk location (kiosk), and five stores to use the expert counter (expert). The
results are below. At the .05 level of significance, can William's Department Store
conclude there is a difference among the mean sales among the four in-store
locations?

- A company is considering an organizational change which entails adopting the use of self-managed work teams which they hope will lead to higher levels of employee satisfaction. In order to assess the attitudes of employees of the company towards this change a sample of 250 employees was selected and asked whether they favor the institution of self-managed teams. Three responses were allowed: favor, neutral or oppose. The observed frequency of the results of the survey are shown below: Opinion Type of Job Favor Neutral Oppose Total Hourly Worker 25 40 35 100 Supervision 45 35 20 100 Manager 20 15 15 50 Total 90 90 70 250 Use this data to test the hypothesis that opinion and type of job are independent at the .025 level.arrow_forwardIf SLR 1-3 hold, but SLR 4 is violated, then...

(1982) report on a drug designed to reduce hypertension (high blood pressure). Such hypotensive drugs are frequently effective but are also linked to side effects like irritability and a decline in energy. Seventy-five patients with mild hypertension were put on hypotensive drugs and their progress was monitored by doctors and spouses. When asked to rate the treated patients as improved, worse, or unchanged, the doctors rated all 75 patients as "improved." Meanwhile, the spouses rated 74 of the 75 patients as "worse."

Suppose we have two samples of data on the number of violent incidents in a number of local areas of the Sydney CBD and nearby surrounds. Pubs, hotels and clubs located in a subset of these areas became subject to the lockout laws when they were introduced in 2014. The first sample is from 2010 before the introduction of the lockout laws, and the second is from 2015 after the introduction of the law. The hypothesis we wish to test is that the introduction of the lockout laws reduces violent incidents in the areas in which the lockout laws were put in place. We use a difference-in-difference model on the pooled data from 2010 and 2015. We find the following results: viol_inc hat = 33.21 (5.29) + 12.43lockout (7.01) – 4.19Yr2015 (2.98) – 3.32 (lockout x Yr2015) (1.85) N = 181, R^2 = 0.128 Where: viol_incis the…arrow_forward
