In a study entitled “How Much Undergraduate Students Drink”, it was
reported that undergraduate students spend $868. This figure was an
all-time high and had increased 44% over the previous five years.
Assume that a current study is being conducted to determine if it
can be concluded that the expenditure of students on alcohol has
continued to increase compared to the original report. Based on
previous studies, use a population standard deviation of $400.
1. State the Null and alternative
hypotheses
2. What is the p-value for a sample of 400
undergraduate students with a sample mean credit card balance of
$907?
3. Using a 0.05 level of significance, what is your
conclusion?
