Assignment 2: Analyzing with ANOVA

Submit your answers to the following questions using the ANOVA source table below. The table depicts a two-way ANOVA in which gender has two groups (male and female), marital status has three groups (married, single never married, divorced), and the means refer to happiness scores (n = 100): 

1. What are the independent variables and their levels? What is the dependent variable?
2. State all null hypotheses associated with independent variables and their interaction? Also suggest alternate hypotheses?
3. What are the degrees of freedom for 1) gender, 2) marital status, 3) interaction between gender and marital status, and 4) error or within variance?
4. Calculate the mean square for 1) gender, 2) marital status, 3) interaction between gender and marital status, and 4) error or within variance.
5. Calculate the F ratio for 1) gender, 2) marital status, and 3) interaction between gender and marital status.
6. Identify the critical Fs at alpha = .05 for 1) gender, 2) marital status, and 3) interaction between gender and marital status.
7. If alpha is set at .05, what conclusions can you make?

Source	Sum of Squares	(degrees of freedom [df])	Mean Square	Fobt.	Fcrit.
Gender	68.15	?	?	?	?
Marital Status	127.37	?	?	?	?
Gender * Marital Status (A x B)	41.90	?	?	?	?
Error (Within)	864.82	?	?	NA	NA
Total	1102.24	99	NA	NA	NA

Please Note: The table that you see in the assignment has been slightly modified from the one presented in the module notes since it is beyond the scope of this unit to have students calculate p values. Instead you are asked to calculate the F value and compare it to the critical F value to determine whether the test is significant or not.

One of your clients wants deductions for few time-sensitive expenses. According to supporting documents, these expenses were paid for after the tax-allowable deadlines. In his effort to avoid paying the applicable tax liabilities, the client is pressuring you to backdate source documents like invoices so that he can get the tax benefit.

• Would you go along with his plan? Why or why not?
• As an accountant, what are your professional responsibilities in this situation?
