A company manufactures products in its factory in Turkey for sale in Asia. Products sold in different countries differ in terms of the power outlet as well as the language of the manuals. Currently, the company assembles and packs products for sale in individual countries.

Given that the lead time from the Turkey factory is (X/4) weeks, how much safety inventory does the company require in Asia if it targets a CSL level of 95 percent?X= 96 b. The company builds a distribution center in Asia. It will ship base products to this center. When an order is received, the center will assemble power supplies, add manuals, and ship the products to the appropriate country.

Imagine that a professor of psychology has two teaching assistants (TAs) who will help her grade assignments for the duration of the semester. The professor wants to make sure that she and the TAs are well calibrated with one another, so she has all three of them grade the first assignment independently. Because the professor grades every assignment on a curve, she first converts the students’ scores to z-scores for each grader. The following table shows the z-scores for a population of 10 students in her class for each grader. Professor Teaching Assistant #1 Teaching Assistant #2 Student 1 0.70 1.27 1.27 Student 2 0.83 -0.64 -1.55 Student 3 -0.98 0.38 -0.14 Student 4 2.21 0.80 0.92 Student 5 -0.54 -1.34 -1.06 Student 6 0.43 0.10 0.30 Student 7 -1.03 -2.09 -1.50 Student 8 -0.01 0.85 1.14 Student 9 -0.54 0.48 0.57 Student 10 -1.07 0.20 0.04 The professor is going to use the z-scores to calculate the correlation coefficient between her scores…

1. Parking at a large university can be extremely difficult at times. One particular university is trying to determine the location of a new parking garage. As part of their research, officials are interested in estimating the average parking time of students from within the various colleges on campus. What's the target parameter of interest?
Suppose a data file from a certain study has information for the following variables: 1. Gender- (X1) 2. Monthly income in US dollars- (Y) 3. Carownership (own a car/does not own a car)-(X2) 4. Age (X3) From such a hypothetical data set, answer the following questions: a) Suggest how you can define dummy variables for the nominal variables gender, and car ownership b) Suggest the null and alternative hypotheses for a global F-test examining the joint significance of coefficients of the independent variables in the model E(Y)=B0 + B1X1 +B2X2 +B3X3 c) Interpret the parameters BO, B1, B2, and B3 for the model in b) above

3. You are curious to understand if there is a relationship between the average grade (in %) that students received in Assignment 1, 2, and 3 of ECOR 2050 (assignments that covered midterm material) and their grade (in %) in the Midterm of the course. You are limited to collect 7 sets of data (midterm vs average assignments). For that, you can check the google sheets to find grades of assignment 1, 2, and 3 and midterm for 7 students. You should be careful that your data set is not biased. a) Collect the information and record them in the table below (please use a typed table/numbers as we need to copy/paste your numbers into Excel for checking your solution and marking). Mention how you ensured that your data set is random and unbiased. Student 2 3 4 6. 7 Grade (%) Average of Assignment 1, 2, and 3 (assignments before midterm) Midterm b) Using the collected information, conduct a simple linear regression analysis and find the regression line. Also, estimate the coefficient of…
A police academy has just brought in a batch of new recruits. All recruits are given an aptitude test and a fitness test. Suppose a researcher wants to know if there is a significant difference in aptitude scores based on a recruits’ fitness level. Recruits are ranked on a scale of 1 – 3 for fitness (1 = lowest fitness category, 3 = highest fitness category). Using “ApScore” as your dependent variable and “FitGroup” as your independent variable, conduct a One-Way, Between Subjects, ANOVA, at α = 0.05, to see if there is a significant difference on the aptitude test between fitness groups. Identify the correct symbolic notation for the alternative hypothesis. A. H0: µ1 = µ2 B. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2 ≠ µ3 C. H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 D. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2

The authors of a paper compared two different methods for measuring body fat percentage. One method uses ultrasound, and the other method uses X-ray technology. The table gives body fat percentages for 16 athletes using each of these methods (a subset of the data given in a graph that appeared in the paper). For purposes of this exercise, you can assume that the 16 athletes who participated in this study are representative of the population of athletes.
