Statistical Hypothesis Testing and Key Performance Indicators
Executive summary
The following report aims to analyse and interpret the data set of 200 records regarding the CCResort. The given information includes booking identification number, income, number of people per booking, length of stay, age and overall expenditure.
From the booking ID it can be assumed that the selection of data is random, however as it is only partial information and not the population, the period of time in which the data is selected from would affect the end results of analysis.
The report is divided into two sections outlining the statistical analysis of data and hypothesis testing to observe if CCResort have met their 2 major key performance indicators (KPIs)
1 More than 40% of their customers stay for a full week (i.e. seven nights);
2 The average customer spends more than $255 per day in excess of accommodation costs.

Figures at a glance
This section of the report aims to give users a better understanding of the data through statistical data analysis of investigation categories including family income, expenditure habits, age distribution, the number of people per booking and their length of stay. These analysis are meaningful in giving users a better understanding of the customer base in relation to the key performance indicators.
1. Family income distribution
From the data collected, 62 families (31% of the sample) earn an income of more than $100,000 while 69% of the sample (138 bookings) had income less than $100,000.

    You are the manager of a large firm. Lately complaints have surfaced that an increased number of incoming calls are being dropped or misrouted. Yesterday, as you walked by one older employee, you noticed that he was fiddling with his hearing aid and not paying attention to the phone. A call came in and only because you were there and intervened was the call answered. This particular phone operator had been reprimanded three months earlier for tardiness. Your instinct is to fire this phone rep or encourage him to retire (he is old enough). You also know that this gentleman is well liked within the company. Pose several hypotheses that might account for the dropped or misrouted calls. How would you test these hypotheses?…

    Previously a group of friends compared the average temperature for the 15 days in each of the 2004 and 2005 Christmas holiday pubic school vacations to determine which holiday was colder. Secondary research retrieved from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 's (NOAA) National Weather Service website provided climatic data on a daily basis for each day of the periods under investigation. Daily average temperature for each of the 15-day holiday vacation periods were gathered as two samples. The friends established a null hypothesis that the Christmas holiday vacation period of 2004 was colder than that of the 2005 Christmas holiday vacation period. After the completion of a five-step hypothesis test using a t-test, the null hypothesis was accepted. The acceptance of this null hypothesis led to further discussion on the comparison of the two periods.…

    A researcher predicts that watching a film on institutionalization will change students’ attitudes about chronically mentally ill patients.

The score for a similar class of students who did not see the film is 75. The standard deviation is 12. Using the five steps of hypothesis testing and the 5% significance level (i.e. alpha = .05), does showing the film change students’ attitudes towards the chronically mentally ill?…
