Economists at USF Are Researching the Problem of Absenteeism at U.S

Question 47

Short Answer

Economists at USF are researching the problem of absenteeism at U.S. firms. A random sample of 100 U.S. organizations was selected to participate in a 1-year study. As part of the study, the economists had collected data on the following two variables for each company: shiftwork available (Yes or No), and union-management relationship (Good or Poor). As part of their analyses, the economists wanted to determine whether or not a company makes shiftwork available depends on the relationship between union and management. The collected data are shown below: \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad Relation\text {Relation}
 Shiftwork  Good  Bad  Total  No 112233 Yes 254267 Total 3664100\begin{array} { l c c c } \text { Shiftwork } & \text { Good } & \text { Bad } & \text { Total } \\ \text { No } & 11 & 22 & 33 \\ \text { Yes } & 25 & 42 & 67 \\ \text { Total } & 36 & 64 & 100 \end{array}
In order to determine whether the shiftwork responses depend on the relationship responses, a two-way chi-square analysis should be conducted. When calculating the test statistic, what values for the expected counts should be used in the calculation?
A) E11=11,E12=22,E21=25,E22=42\mathrm { E } _ { 11 } = 11 , \mathrm { E } _ { 12 } = 22 , \mathrm { E } _ { 21 } = 25 , \mathrm { E } _ { 22 } = 42
B) E11=36,E12=33,E21=64,E22=67\mathrm { E } _ { 11 } = 36 , \mathrm { E } _ { 12 } = 33 , \mathrm { E } _ { 21 } = 64 , \mathrm { E } _ { 22 } = 67
C) E11=11.88,E12=21.12,E21=24.12,E22=42.88\mathrm { E } _ { 11 } = 11.88 , \mathrm { E } _ { 12 } = 21.12 , \mathrm { E } _ { 21 } = 24.12 , \mathrm { E } _ { 22 } = 42.88
D) E11=0.065,E12=0.036,E21=0.032,E22=0.018\mathrm { E } _ { 11 } = 0.065 , \mathrm { E } _ { 12 } = 0.036 , \mathrm { E } _ { 21 } = 0.032 , \mathrm { E } _ { 22 } = 0.018
