Vermont-based Green Mountain Coffee Roasters dominates the market for single-serve coffee in the United States, with its subsidiary Keurig accounting for approximately 85% of sales (Rivals Try to Loosen Keurig's Grip on Single-Serve Coffee Market," Chicago Tribune, February 26, 2011). But Keurig's patent on K-cups, the plastic pods used to brew the coffee, is expected to expire this year, allowing other companies to better compete. Suppose a potential competitor has been conducting blind taste tests on its blend and finds that 54% of consumers strongly prefer its French Roast to that of Green Mountain Coffee Roasters. After tweaking its recipe, the competitor conducts a test with 158 tasters, of which 87 prefer its blend. The competitor claims that its new blend is preferred by more than 54% of consumers to Green Mountain Coffee Roasters' French Roast. What is the value of the appropriate test statistic to test this claim? Multiple Choice O O z = 0.28 2-196 2-144 2-0.28
