Data Were Collected from CEOs in the Consumer Products Industry $X =$

Data were collected from CEOs in the consumer products industry and CEOs in the telecommunication industry. The data were analyzed using a software package in order to compare mean salaries of CEOs in the two industries.

HYPOTHESIS: MEAN X = MEAN Y
SAMPLES SELECTED FROM SALARY
$X =$ Consumer Products
$Y =$ Telecommunications

SAMPLE MEAN OF $X = 1761$
SAMPLE VARIANCE OF $X = 3.97555$ E6
SAMPLE SIZE OF X $= 21$


SAMPLE MEAN OF $Y = 1093.5$
SAMPLE VARIANCE OF $Y = 103255$
SAMPLE SIZE OF $\mathrm { Y } = \quad 21$
MEAN X - MEAN Y $= \quad 667.5$
test statistic $= \quad 1.47809$
D. F. $= 40$
$\mathrm { P } - \mathrm { VALUE } = \quad 0.147626$
P-VALUE $/ 2 = 0.0738131$
SD. ERROR $= \quad 451.597$
