- The College Board reported the following mean scores for the three parts of the SAT: Assume that the population standard deviation on each part of the test is = 100. For a random sample of 30 test takers, what is the sampling distribution of for scores on the Critical Reading part of the test? For a random sample of 60 test takers, what is the sampling distribution of for scores on the Mathematics part of the test? For a random sample of 90 test takers, what is the sampling distribution of for scores on the Writing part of the test?arrow_forwardConsider a sample with data values of 10, 20, 12, 17, and 16. a. Compute the mean and median. b. Consider a sample with data values 10, 20, 12, 17, 16, and 12. How would you expect the mean and median for these sample data to compare to the mean and median for part a (higher, lower, or the same)? Compute the mean and median for the sample data 10, 20, 12, 17, 16, and 12.arrow_forwardThe president of Doerman Distributors, Inc., believes that 30% of the firm’s orders come from first-time customers. A random sample of 100 orders will be used to estimate the proportion of first-time customers. Assume that the president is correct and p = 0.30. What is the sampling distribution of for this study?arrow_forward
- Assume that you have selected a random sample of 15 checks from a population of 800 checks. The checks you have selected are the following numbers: 664, 789, 650, 136, 365, 538, 800, 657, 110, 136, 398, 645, 214, 544, and 777. Based on this sample, evaluate the truth of the following statements regarding your findings. Describe why you feel each statement is true or false. a. You have determined that Check No. 365 was not properly signed and was paid to a fictitious vendor. You conclude that fraud exists in the population. b. You have determined that no fraud exists in the sample of 15 checks you evaluated. You conclude that no fraud exists in the population.arrow_forwardEvan Kristopher, CPA intends to use probability-proportional-to-size sampling. He has properly selected and audited a sample of 100 accounts receivable from his client’s population of 3,000 accounts. He calculated a sampling interval of $6,000 and the tolerable misstatement for the account is $30,000. Evan also recalls that “basic precision” is equal to the appropriate reliability factor multiplied times the sampling interval. He wishes to accept a risk of incorrect acceptance of 10%. He found that 97 of the 100 accounts in the sample were properly calculated. However, the following three errors existed: Book Value Audited Value $75 $70 1,000 750 9,300 6,720 Required: Calculate the projected misstatement. Calculate the basic precision. Calculate the incremental allowance. Calculate the upper limit on misstatement. What would the auditors’ conclusion be for the population based on the analysis? explain pleasearrow_forwardEvan Kristopher, CPA intends to use probability-proportional-to-size sampling.

- In calculating the projected misstatement in monetary unit sampling, accounts with a book value larger than the sampling interval are extended to the projected misstatement at their: Misstatement amount. Actual book value. Tainting percentage times the sampling interval. Tainting percentage times their book value.arrow_forwardCalculate total projected mistreatment if the following three mistreatments were discovered in a PPS sample when the sampling interval is $1,000.

- Review each of the following independent sets of conditions. For each condition, calculatethe (1) sample rate of deviation, (2) ULRD, and (3) allowance for sampling risk (n = samplesize, d = deviations, ROO = risk of overreliance). What is your conclusion regarding therelationship of each of these factors to the ULRD based on comparing the ULRD across different combinations of these factors?a. n = 100, d = 8, ROO = 5%.b. n = 100, d = 4, ROO = 5%.c. n = 100, d = 8, ROO = 10%arrow_forwardDetermine the Sample size in the AHMED Company according to the following data: Book value of population tested = 500000 $ The Reliability factor for the specified risk of incorrect acceptance= 3 Tolerable misstatement = 40000 $ Anticipated misstatement= 4000 $ Expansion factor for anticipated misstatement = 1.5arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is correct about monetary unit sampling?a. The risk of incorrect acceptance must be specified.b. Smaller logical units have a higher probability of selection in the sample than larger units.c.
