Textbook Question
Chapter 9, Problem 9.105ACI
Manager’s trust and job-related tension. Research published in Accounting, Organizations and Society (Vol. 19, 1994) investigated whether the effects of different performance evaluation styles (PES) on the level of job-related tension is affected by trust. Three performance evaluation styles were considered. Each is related to the way in which accounting information is used for the purpose of evaluation. The three styles are budget-constrained (BC), profit-conscious (PC), and the nonaccounting style (NA), which focuses on factors such as quality of output and attitude toward the job. Consider a questionnaire (similar to the one used in the study) administered to 200 managers. It measures the performance evaluation style of each manager’s superior (on a 10-point scale), the manager’s job-related tension, and the manager's level of trust (low, medium, and high) in his or her superior. These data were used to produce the partial ANOVA table and table of treatment means shown next.
- a. Describe the treatments of this study.
- b. Complete the ANOVA table.
- c. Investigate the presence of an Interaction effect by conducting the appropriate hypothesis test using α = .05.
- d. Use a plot of treatment means to investigate the interaction effect. Interpret your results. Are your results of parts c and d consistent?
- e. Given your answers to parts c and d, should the F-tests for the two main effects be conducted?

Many research studies have been conducted to examine how different organizations are on implementing knowledge management processes. For example, studies have proved that larger firms have more resources to utilize, and so they have taken more efforts to implement knowledge management processes.
The Journal of Business Research (Aug. 2014) published a study discussing the relationship between knowledge management processes and organizational performance. The table below shows the percentage of different size of firms participated in the study. These firms have been classified in terms of number of employees working.
Need step-by-step procedure to answer each question.
Randomly select one of the participated company from this study. Let x be the number of employees working in the company. Write the probability distribution of this x.
What is the probability that the selected company employs more than 50 employees?
Find E(x) and σ. Interpret the result.
A study investigated the relationship between audit delay and variables that describe the client and the auditor. The file Audit contains data from a sample of 40 companies on the following set of variables:
Delay: The length of time from a company's fiscal year-end to the date of the auditor's report.
Industry: A dummy variable coded 1 if the firm was an industrial company or 0 if the firm was a bank, savings and loan, or insurance company.
Public: A dummy variable coded 1 if the company was traded on an organized exchange or over the counter; otherwise coded 0.
Quality: A measure of overall quality of internal controls, as judged by the auditor, on a five-point scale ranging from "virtually none" (1) to "excellent" (5).
Finished: A measure ranging from 1 to 4, as judged by the auditor, where 1 indicates "all work performed subsequent to year-end" and indicates 4 "most work performed prior to year-end."

For each school, three variables were measured: (1) GMAT score for the typical incoming student; (2) student acceptance rate (percentage accepted of all students who applied); and (3) starting salary of the typical graduating student. An academic advisor wants to predict the typical starting salary of a graduate at a top business school using GMAT score of the school as a predictor variable. The results of a simple linear regression of SALARY versus GMAT using the 25 data points are shown below.
