The
National Association of Colleges and Employers reported
that
the
mean yearly salary offer for students graduating with accounting degrees in
2010
was $48,700. Suppose
that
a random sample of 50 accounting graduates
at
a large
university who received job offers resulted in a mean offer of $49,500. Assume the
distribution
of
offers obtained by accounting graduates
at
this university has a stan-
dard
deviation of $3,000. Carry out a significance
test
to
determine whether the
mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university
is
different from
the
2010 national average of $48,700. Be sure to give a conclusion in context.
