Tiffany Morris Matthew Bradwisch Carly Alm Samples Chips Ahoy! Brand Great Value Brand Chewy Chewy Crunchy Crunchy Hypotheses Chips Ahoy! would be the preferred brand Normally preferred type would be the same
Chips Ahoy! Brand Chewy Crunchy Great Value Brand Chewy Crunchy
Samples
Chips Ahoy! would be the preferred brand Normally preferred type would be the same as chosen sample type (Soft vs. Chewy) We believed the name brand cookie would contain more chocolate chips per cookie and have a higher price per cookie.
Hypotheses
Experimental data collection
Selection of sample cookies from population Weights of cookies as a whole (grams) Separation of cookie dough and chips Chips weighed separate (grams)
Data Collection
Survey Data
4 sample cookies to chose from 48 surveys were completed Survey located on 1st floor of Old Main Survey participants were diverse

We are 90% confident that of those who normally preferred crunchy cookies 28% to 72% would choose a chewy
sample Test of Independence: There was sufficient evidence to suggest that normally preferred and sample chosen are independent for MSU students and faculty.
Preferred vs. Chosen
Preferred vs. Chosen
71.43% of females chose Chips Ahoy! in the sample. 51.85% of males chose Chips Ahoy! and 48.15% of males chose Great Value in the sample We are 95% confident that, in the population of MSU students and faculty,
7.4% less to 46.6% more females than males would chose Chips Ahoy!, the name brand.
Interval includes 0 No significant difference between female and male choices

Chips per Cookie
The Chips Ahoy! brand had more chips per cookie than the Great Value brand, in our sample. Using an Chi-square Goodness of Fit Test Chips per cookie ratio different per brand? Using α=0.05, we got a χ²=0.0718 and a p- value of 0.995 Chips per cookie ratio is not significantly different between brands, in the population.
We are 95% confident that the mean cookie weights for population of each brand are 13.0 to 14.6 grams Chips Ahoy! Chewy 10.3 to 12.1 grams Chips Ahoy! Crunchy 13.1 to 14.1 grams Great Value Chewy 10.4 to 11.4 grams Great Value Crunchy

Chips Ahoy! Crunchy is the winner! Chips Ahoy! was more preferred brand Normally preferred is independent of chosen sample type (Soft vs. Chewy) The chip to cookie ratios were not significantly different Chips Ahoy! Chewy highest price per cookie Great Value Crunchy lowest price per cookie Chips Ahoy! Crunchy and Great Value Chewy not significantly different (price per cookie)
Conclusion Hypotheses Results
For the Survey: More locations around campus Different times More surveys Age confidentiality- ex. locked survey box For Cookie Data: More accurate scale Better method for separating chips
