Question: The marketing team of a major electronics retailer is interested in running a promotion in the Westchester, NY area. This program provides incentives for trading in old laptop computers in the form of credit that may be used toward buying a new laptop computer. In order to predict the success of this promotion, the marketing team needs to estimate the average age of the laptops that the residents in this area own. They expect the number to be 3.5 years-42 months-or older and therefore believe that the program will be highly successful. To confirm the estimate, the managers have asked you to conduct a marketing research. You have collected a sample from 200 laptop owners and have entered the data in file LaptopAge.sav.
