Refer to the Business and Society (Mar. 2011) study on the sustainability behaviors of CPA corporations. Recall that the level of support for corporate sustainability (measured on a quantitative scale ranging from 0 to 160 points) was obtained for each in a sample of 992 senior managers at CPA firms. The accompanying MlNITAB printout gives 90% confidence intervals for both the variance and standard deviation of level of support for all senior managers at CPA firms. Statistics VariableNStDevVariance Support99226.9722 90% Confidence Intervals VariableMethodCI for StDevCI for Variance SupportChi-Square(25.9, 27.9)(672, 779) a. Locate the 90% confidence interval for σ2 on the printout. b. Use the sample variance on the printout to calculate the 90% confidence interval for σ2. Does your result agree with the interval shown on the printout? c. Locate the 90% confidence interval for a on the printout. d. Use the result, part a, to calculate the 90% confidence interval for a. Does your result agree with the interval shown on the printout? e. Give a practical interpretation of the 90% confidence interval for a. f. What assumption about the distribution of level of support is required for the inference, part e, to be valid? Is this assumption reasonably satisfied?
