    1. A t-test was conducted to compare weekly incomes before and after implementing an incentive plan. The average income was higher after ($45,425 vs $42,833) and the null hypothesis of no difference was rejected. 2. A t-test found no significant difference in spending amounts between weekday ($5034.7) and Saturday ($6736) customers. 3. T-tests found the average business salary ($56,580) was higher than humanities ($47,166.67) but no difference between humanities and natural sciences ($47,166.67 vs $52,670) salaries.

    1. t-Test: Paired Two Sample for Means

    Before After
    Mean 42833.33333 45425
    Variance 144144242.4 172787500
    Observations 12 12
    Pearson Correlation 0.951393123
    Hypothesized Mean Difference 0
    df 11
    t Stat -2.200928618
    P(T<=t) one-tail 0.025002469
    t Critical one-tail 1.795884819
    P(T<=t) two-tail 0.050004938
    t Critical two-tail 2.20098516

    A t-test for dependent samples was conducted in order to check whether there is a significant
    increase in the average salesperson’s weekly income after the implementation of the innovative
    incentive plan. The computed t value is 2.20. The degrees of freedom value is 11 and a 5% level
    of significance was used as a criterion for acceptance. The results indicated that the mean salary
    before the application of the incentive plan (M=42,833.33) is lower than the mean salary after
    application (M=45,425). The result of the t-test rejects the null hypothesis of having no
    significant increase in the average salesperson’s weekly income and accepted the alternative
    hypothesis.
    2. t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variances

    Weekday Saturday
    Mean 5034.7 6736
    Variance 5884599.789 4992585.714
    Observations 10 15
    Hypothesized Mean Difference 0
    df 18
    t Stat -1.772476949
    P(T<=t) one-tail 0.046620021
    t Critical one-tail 1.734063607
    P(T<=t) two-tail 0.093240041
    t Critical two-tail 2.10092204

    A t-test for independent samples was conducted s to compare the amounts spent by
    customers of XXX Supermarket. The results indicated that the Saturday shoppers spend more
    money than the ones on weekdays, since the mean of the Saturday shoppers(M=6736) is higher
    than the mean of the weekday shoppers(M=5034.7). The computed t value is 1.77. The degrees
    of freedom value is 18 and a 5% level of significance was used as a criterion for acceptance. The
    critical value was found to be equal to 2.10. Comparing this value against the computed t-value
    of 1.77 indicates that the calculated t-test value is less than the critical value at significance level
    of 5%. Therefore, it is safe to accept the null hypothesis that there is no significant difference
    between the spending of weekday and Saturday customers.
    3. t-Test: Humanities and Business

    Humanities Business
    Mean 47166.66667 56580
    Variance 27072500 18092888.89
    Observations 9 10
    Hypothesized Mean Difference 0
    df 16
    t Stat -4.288837462
    P(T<=t) one-tail 0.000281812
    t Critical one-tail 1.745883676
    P(T<=t) two-tail 0.000563624
    t Critical two-tail 2.119905299

    A t-test for independent samples was conducted in order to compare the salaries of the
    Business and Humanities departments. The problem already indicated that the mean of the
    Business department is higher than that of the Humanities department and looking at the results
    of the table, it is clearly shown that the mean of business department (M=56,580) is greater than
    the mean of the humanities department (M=47,166.67). The calculated t stat of 4.28 is greater
    than the critical value of 2.11 at 5% significance level. Therefore, it is safe to reject the null
    hypothesis accept the alternative hypothesis.

    t-Test: Humanities and Natural Science

    Humanities Natural Science


    Mean 47166.66667 52670
    Variance 27072500 38097888.89
    Observations 9 10
    Hypothesized Mean Difference 0
    df 17
    t Stat -2.107668352
    P(T<=t) one-tail 0.025104276
    t Critical one-tail 1.739606726
    P(T<=t) two-tail 0.050208552
    t Critical two-tail 2.109815578
    A t-test for independent samples was conducted in order to compare the salaries of the
    Natural Science and Humanities departments. The results show that the mean of Natural Science
    (M=52,670) is greater than the mean of the humanities department (M=47,166.67). The
    computed t value is 2.107. The degrees of freedom value is 17 and a 5% level of significance
    was used as a criterion for acceptance. The critical value was found to be equal to 2.109.
    Comparing this value against the computed t-value of 2.107 indicates that the calculated t-test
    value is less than the critical value at significance level of 5%. Therefore, it is safe to accept the
    null hypothesis that there is no significant difference between the average salaries of the
    Humanities and Natural Sciences departments
