1. 0.07 x 500 = 35
2. 0.04 x 500 = 20
3. 0.06 x 500 = 30
4. 0.13 x 500 = 65

a. 0 cells (.0%) have

expected frequencies less
than 5. The minimum
expected cell frequency is
20.0.
Asym Sig-value = 0.007

Chi Square Value from SPSS = 17.595

At df= 6 and α = 0.01, Chi Square value = 16.812
16.812 < 17.595
Thus Chi Square value lies with in acceptance region.
Therefore do not reject Ho.

At α= 0.01 data do not provide evidence to conclude that current distribution has
changed from previous
