In a study of store checkout-scanners, 1234 items were checked for price accuracy; 20 checked items were found to be over charges, and 1214 we're not over charges. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that with scanners, one percent of sales are over charges.

(Yes/No), because a (Larger/smaller) proportion of the sampled items are overcharges. It appears that the error rate is (worse/better/ about the same) with scanners than was before.
