252y0333TH 11 18 03 ECO252 QBA2 Third EXAM Nov 25 2003 TAKE HOME SECTION Name KEY Social Security Number Please Note computer problems 2 and 3 should be turned in with the exam In problem 2 the 2 way ANOVA table should be completed The three F tests should be done with a 5 significance level and you should note whether there was i a significant difference between drivers ii a significant difference between cars and iii significant interaction In problem 3 you should show on your third graph where the regression line is II Do the following 23 points Assume a 5 significance level Show your work 1 Assume that each column below represents a random sample of sales of the popular cereal brand Whee As it was moved from shelf 1 lowest to shelf 4 highest of a group of supermarkets Assume that the underlying distribution is Normal and test the hypothesis 1 2 3 4 a Before you start add the second to last digit of your social security number to the 451 in column 4 and find the sample variance of sales from shelf 4 For example Seymour Butz s SS number is 123456789 and he will change 451 to 459 This should not change the results by much 2 b Test the hypothesis 6 Show your work it is legitimate to check your results by running these problems on the computer but I expect to see hand computations for every part of them c Compare means two by two using any one appropriate statistical method to find out which shelves are significantly better than others 3 d Extra Credit What if you found out that each row represented one store If this changes your analysis redo the analysis 5 e Extra Credit What if you found out that each row represented one store and that the underlying distribution was not Normal If this changes your analysis redo the analysis 5 f I did some subsequent analysis on theis problem The output in part said Levene s Test any continuous distribution Test Statistic 0 609 P Value 0 613 What was I testing for and what should my conclusion be 2 Sales of Whee Cereal Shelf Row 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 336 417 208 420 366 227 357 353 518 388 440 277 374 421 481 349 328 449 462 373 464 479 492 456 338 413 383 554 497 510 354 423 321 424 518 451 311 462

company operating in 12 regions gives us its advertising expenses as a percent of those of its leading competitor and its sales as a percent of those of its leading competitor Row 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

that the sum and sum of squares of sales can t be used directly but they should help you to get the corrected numbers Change the 103 in the sales column by adding the second to last digit of your Social Security number to it For example Seymour Butz s SS number is 123456789 and he will change 103 to 112 This should not change the results by much The question is whether our relative advertising expenses affect our relative sales so Sales should be your dependent variable and Ad should be your independent variable Show your work it is legitimate to check your results by running the problem on the computer but I expect to see hand computations that show clearly where you got your numbers for every part of this problem a Compute the regression equation Y b0 b1 x to predict the Sales on the basis of Ad 2 b Compute R 2 2 c Compute s e 2 d Compute s b0 and do a significance test on b0 2 e Do an ANOVA table for the regression What conclusion can you draw from this table about the relationship between advertising expenditures and sales Why 2 f It is proposed to raise our expenditures to 110 of our competitors in every region Use this to find a predicted value for sales and to create a confidence interval for sales Explain the difference between this and a prediction interval and when the prediction interval would be more useful 3 11 22 2003 4 04 56 AM Welcome to Minitab
