Team "A" will attempt to formulate, using an (F) test with a significance level of .01, if the means for the five different groups equal each other or if the means are not all equal. This is shown in the hypotheses statements below.

Ho: u1 = u2 = u3 =u4 = u5

H1: Not all means are the same.

The null hypothesis would state the means of the 5 different groups "intent to buy" cabinets in the future are equal. The alternate hypothesis would state that not all the means are the same. We express this as:

Step1: Ho: u1 = u2 = u3 =u4 = u5

H1: Not all means are the same.

Step 2: We will use a .01 level of significance.

Step 3: Determine the test statistic. We will follow the test statistic of the (F)

test.

Step 4: Formulate the decision rule. Using Appendix G as a frame of reference, we have determined that the critical value using (dfn) = 4 as a numerator and (dfd) = 115 as a denominator is 3.487.

Step 5: The following ANOVA table shows the results of the calculated data:
