Beryl's Iced Teа currently rents а bоttling mаchine fоr $54,000 per year, including all maintenance expenses. It is cоnsidering purchasing a machine instead, and is comparing two options: a. Purchase the machine it is currently renting for $155,000. This machine will require $24,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses. b. Purchase a new, more advanced machine for $250,000. This machine will require $19,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses and will lower bottling costs by $11,000 per year. Also, $36,000 will be spent upfront training the new operators of the machine. Suppose the appropriate discount rate is 7% per year and the machine is purchased today. Maintenance and bottling costs are paid at the end of each year, as is the rental of the machine. Assume also that the machines will be depreciated via the straight-line method over seven years and that they have a 10-year life with a negligible salvage value. The corporate tax rate is 35%. Should Beryl's Iced Tea continue to rent, purchase its current machine, or purchase the advanced machine?
Cоnsider а study оf n = 51 stаtes, including the District оf Columbiа, on the salaries of public school teachers. An SLR model for Y = average teacher annual salary ($ thousands) and X = spending per pupil ($ thousands) resulted in the following studentized deleted residuals, leverages, Cook's distances, and DFFITS for six states. The following graph is a scatterplot of Y vs X with the fitted regression line added. After deleting the observation with the highest absolute DFFITS, the scatterplot and fitted regression line changed to the following. Use the output above to answer the following questions. What is the value of the highest leverage? [lev] Does the observation with the highest leverage exceed the "3p/n" threshold that designates an "extreme" observation? [extreme] What is the value of the highest absolute studentized deleted residual? [stu] Does the observation with the highest absolute studentized deleted residual exceed the "3" threshold that designates an "outlier?" [outlier] What is the value of the highest absolute DFFITS? [dffits] Does the observation with the highest absolute DFFITS exceed the "2√((p+1)/(n–p–1))" threshold that designates an "influential" observation? [inf1] What is the value of the highest Cook's distance? [cooksd] Does the observation with the highest Cook's distance exceed the "0.5" threshold that designates an "influential" observation? [inf2] After deleting the observation with the highest absolute DFFITS, how does the equation of the regression line change? [eqn] How does the value of the regression standard error, S, change? [s]
Cоnsider а study оf Mаth scоres (Mаth) for n=14 students with information about their undergraduate major (Major) and weekly hours of study (Hours). The goal was to fit a regression model to express the dependence of Y (Math) on X (Hours) and Major (Engineering, History, or Science). Type your answers to the following questions in the text box below making sure to reference the relevant Minitab output in your answers. (6 pts) Clearly define a set of indicator variables that could be used in a regression model to represent the qualitative variable Major. [Hint: Think carefully about the number of indicator variables needed given the number of levels of Major and use "Engineering" as the reference level.] (6 pts) Write a population multiple linear regression equation for predicting the Math scores in terms of Hours and Major. Since Major could impact the dependence of Math score (Y) on Hours (X), include in the model interaction effects between Hours and Major, together with their main effects. [Hint: Your equation should include Y, X, the indicator variables you defined in part (a), interaction terms, and population regression coefficients (β’s). Do not include estimated coefficients, i.e., numbers, in this part.] (8 pts) Conduct a single hypothesis test based on the model from part (b) to determine whether the average change in Math score per one additional Hour of study per week differs by Major. Write the null and alternative hypotheses, the test statistic, the p-value, and the conclusion based on a significance level of 0.05. Use relevant parts of the following Minitab output to support your answer. [Not all the output is relevant.] (8 pts) Write a new population regression model based on your conclusion to part (c). Then conduct two separate hypothesis tests based on this new model for whether the mean Math score for a fixed number of Hours of study per week differs by Major. For each test, write the null and alternative hypotheses, the test statistic, the p-value, and the conclusion based on a significance level of 0.05. Use relevant parts of the following Minitab output to support your answer. [Not all the output is relevant.] (6 pts) Based on your conclusion to part (d), write three fitted regression equations that can be used to predict the Math score from the Hours of study per week for each Major. [Hint: Your equations should include number values, not β’s.] (4 pts) Based on one of the equations from part (e), predict the Math score for a History major who studies 4 hours a week. A point estimate is sufficient.
