Bаsed upоn previоus sаles figures (аn external benchmark), a sales manager wants tо determine whether her salespeople could realistically achieve average sales significantly greater than $75,000. The manager gathered data on level of sales achieved by each of her twenty salespeople. She conducted the following statistical test with these results: One-Sample Statistics N Mean Std. Deviation Std. Error Mean Sales 20 75500.00 18968.11729 4241.39997 One-Sample Test Test Value = 75000 t df Sig. (2-tailed) Mean Difference 95% Confidence Interval of the Difference - Lower 95% Confidence Interval of the Difference - Upper Sales .118 19 .907 500.00 -8377.3522 9377.3522 If you have trouble reading the table, here is the information it contains in text form: One-Sample Statistics for Sales N = 20 Mean = 75500.00 Std. Deviation = 18968.11729 Std. Error Mean = 4241.39997 One Sample Test for Sales Test Value = 75000 t = .118 df = 19 Sig. (2-tailed) = .907 Mean Difference = 500.00 95% Confidence Interval of the Difference - Lower = -8377.3522 95% Confidence Interval of the Difference - Upper = 9377.3522 What is the significance of this statistical test? (i.e., Is the test significant?)
