The president of a bank wants to know the average account balance for all 2046 of the bank’s customers. Every account balance she surveys requires a long authorization process, so she decides to take a sample of 20 accounts instead of going through this process thousands of times. These are the balances of 20 randomly selected customers (each is rounded to the nearest dollar, and some have a balance less than $0). A. Find Q1, the Median, and Q3 for the set above.

Step 1
This will help us identify the quartiles and the median. Here are the balances in ascending order: -100, -50, -20, -10, 0, 10, 20, 20, 30, 40, 50, 50, 60, 70, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, 150 Show more…

The manager of a local small bank wants to estimate the proportion of account balances no less than $500. Assume a random sample of 120 checking accounts at the bank is chosen and it is found that 33 of them have a daily balance no less than $500. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population proportion of accounts with a daily balance of no less than $500.

Of the 13,500 savings accounts in a bank, 4,675 belong to people younger than 40 years old. The bank president would like to increase her institution's marketing strategy to younger customers, so she is examining the population proportions in order to create a statistical study. Find the population proportion, as well as the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution for samples of size n=400 . Round all answers to 3 decimal places.

5-2. An auditor selected a random sample of 12 accounts from all accounts receivable of a given firm. The amounts of the accounts, in dollars, are as follows: 87.50, 123.10, 45.30, 52.22, 213.00, 155.00, 39.00, 76.05, 49.80, 99.99, 132.00, 102.11. Compute an estimate of the mean amount of all accounts receivable. Give an estimate of the variance of all the amounts. 5-3. In problem 5-2, suppose the auditor wants to estimate the proportion of all the firm's accounts receivable with amounts over $100. Give a point estimate of this parameter.
