In 2007, for those that did not use all of their account (about one out of every seven), the average amount lost was $723.

Suppose a random sample of 150 employees who did not use all of their funds in 2009 is taken and an average amount of $683 was lost. Test the hypothesis that there is no significant difference in the average amount forfeited. Assume that o'= $307 per year. Use a = 0.05.
