The data below represents the yearly earnings (in $1000s of dollars) that high school and college (BS) graduates earn at a small firm. Determine if there is any difference in pay for the two groups: Be sure to include a complete analysis (i. e., all assumptions checked and full understanding of effects garnered) and a clear summary with all needed statistical details included.

Explanation:

Summary:

The data set include two dependent variables which states High School annual earnings and BS annual earnings in the same small firm. Firstly, I used density plot function to view the distribution of two sets of variables. Secondly, I tested the skewness and kurtosis.Skewness of High School is -0.24041 which is left tail. Skewness of BS is 0.53476 which is right tail.Kurtosis of High School is 2.5695 which lower than 3 is platykurtic. Kurtosis of BS is 3.6449 which larger than 3 is leptokurtic. Thirdly, the sample population is 39 for each and has unknow standard deviation, so that I’m going to use t-test to perform the comparing analysis. The result shows p-value which equal to 0.866 is larger than significant value(alpha = 0.05). To the concludsion, there is no difference between yearly earnings of High School and of BS at a small firm.
