Explanation / Answer

a)   What is the point estimate for the average annual salary paid to B&T employees in each of the six grades? DO NOT INCLUDE CEO.

The point estimate for the average annual salary paid to B&T employees in each of the six grades is the sample mean of the annual salary.

The sample mean is sum of all observations divided by total number of observations.

Point estimate of the annual salary = 68216.69

(b) For the Vice Presidents (GRADE 6) only, find the 95% Confidence for the average annual salary.

95% confidence interval for mean annual salary is,

Xbar - E < mu < Xbar + E

where Xbar is the sample mean.

E is the margin of error.

Here for grade6 the number of observations (n) = 16

Here n is small so we use here one sample t-interval.

E = tc * (sd/sqrt(n))

where tc is critical value for t-distribution.

c is confidence level

sd is standard deviation of the data.

n = 20

tc we can find using EXCEL.

syntax :

=TINV(probability, deg_freedom)

where probability = 1 - C = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

deg_freedom = n-1 = 16-1 = 15

tc = 2.131

E = 2.131 * (126365.6 / sqrt(16)) = 67335.48

95% confidence interval for mu is (182500 - 67335.48, 182500 + 67335.48).

95% confidence interval for mu is (115165, 249835).

We are 95% confident that the mean population annual salary will be lies between these two values.
