The purpose of the study was to gain insight on the current small business healthcare environment. Small business owners were asked if they offered healthcare plans to their employees and if so, what portion (%) of the employee monthly healthcare premium the business paid. The accompanying frequency distribution was formed to summarize the portion of premium paid for 8888 small businesses who offer healthcare plans to employees. Complete parts (a) through (c). LOADING... Click the icon to view the frequency distribution. a. What percentage of small businesses pays less than 26% of the employee monthly healthcare premium? nothing % (Round to two decimal places as needed.) b. What percentage of small businesses pays between 26% and 75% of the employee monthly health care premium? nothing % (Round to two decimal places as needed.) c. What percentage of small businesses pays more than 75% of the employee monthly healthcare premium? nothing % (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Suppose that 10,000 customers in a retailer's customer database are categorized by three customer types: 3,500 prospective buyers, 4,500 first time buyers, and 2,000 repeat (loyal) buyers. A sample of 1,000 customers is needed. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. What type of sampling should you do? Why? A. Convenience sample for efficiency B. Systematic sample for accuracy C. Stratified sample for efficiency D. Simple random sample for accuracy b. Explain how you would carry out the sampling according to the method stated in (a). A. Take a simple random sample of 500 of the customers out of all of the customers, disregarding which stratum each customer belongs to. B. Partition the N customers in the frame into n groups of k customers, where kequals=StartFraction Upper N Over n EndFractionNn, rounding to the nearest integer. Next, choose the first customer to be selected at random from the first k customers in the frame. Then, select the remaining nminus1 customers by taking every kth customer thereafter from the entire frame. C. Select a simple random sample from each of the three types of customers and combine the results. D. Take the highest number of samples from the stratum that seems the most representative, and take the lowest number of samples from the stratum that is most likely to produce outliers. c. Why is the sampling in (a) not simple random sampling? A. The probability of selection for each customer must be known, which is not true with this sampling method. B. A simple random sample gives every sample of a fixed size the same chance of selection as every other sample of that size, which is not true with this sampling method. C. A simple random sample gives every item from a frame the same chance of selection as every other item, which is not true with this sampling method. D. In a simple random sample, each customer must be replaced in the sample after being chosen, which is not true with this sampling method. More Less 6. A categorical variable has three categories, with the frequencies of occurrence below. a. Compute the percentage of values in each category. b.

Categor Frequency Percentage (%) y nothing % A 1414 B 2828 C 88 nothing % nothing % (Simplify your answers.) b. What conclusions can you reach concerning the categories? A. Category Upper BB occurs more than half of the time. The other two categories occur less than half of the time, with category Upper CC being the least likely to occur. B. Category Upper BB is the most likely to occur while category Upper CC is the least likely to occur. All three categories occur more than a quarter of the time. C. Category Upper BB occurs more than half of the time. The other two categories occur less than half of the time, with category Upper AA being the least likely to occur. D. Category Upper CC occurs more than half of the time. The other two categories occur less than half of the time, with category Upper BB being the least likely to occur. E. Category Upper BB is the most likely to occur while category Upper CC is the least likely to occur. All three categories occur less than half of the time. 7. For the companies in which they invest, pension fund managers seek to ensure the independence of the boards of directors. For one company, fund managers determine that the board had 88 inside directors, 55 independent (outside) directors, and 77 directors that the company labeled as independent, but whom officials consider to be insiders. Seeking more independence of this board, the fund managers ask for change. The company responds and fund managers evaluate the company's new board as having 44 inside directors, 1010 independent directors, and 66 directors improperly labeled as independent. Examine the two accompanying charts that are based on these findings and complete the questions below. Click here to view Chart1. LOADING... Click here to view Chart2.
