You are a financial analyst for a brokerage firm. Is there a difference in dividend yield between stocks listed on the NYSE & NASDAQ? You collect the following data:

NYSE NASDAQNumber 21 25Sample mean 3.27 2.53Sample std dev 1.30 1.16

Assuming both populations are approximately normal with equal variances, isthere a difference in average yield ( = 0.05)?

Assume you send your salespeople to a “customer service” training workshop. Has the training made a difference in the number of complaints? You collect the following data:

Two Population Proportions

Goal: Test hypotheses for the difference between two population proportions, P1 – P2

Population proportions

Assumptions: Both sample sizes are large,

Example: Two Population Proportions

Is there a significant difference between the proportion of men and the proportion of women who will vote Yes on Proposition A?

In a random sample, 36 of 72 men and 31 of 50 women indicated they would vote Yes

Test at the .05 level of significance

Page 55: Chapter 10 Statistical Inferences About Means and Proportions with Two Populations

Chap 10-55

The hypothesis test is:H0: PM – PW = 0 (the two proportions are equal)

H1: PM – PW ≠ 0 (there is a significant difference between

proportions) The sample proportions are:

Men: = 36/72 = .50

Women: = 31/50 = .62
