Question 220667: Sally�s Beauty Salon just opened for business. Sally assigns the stylists customers on a rotation basis so that everyone is kept busy all day. One month after she opened the salon, Sally�s customer count for each stylist was (a) 20 customers; (b) 30 customers; (c) 15 customers; and (d) 25 customers. Has Sally been fair in how she allocates customers to each of the stylists?
I know that this is parametric, but why exactly is it parametric?

--------------------------
This is a "Chi-Sq Goodness-of-Fit" problem.

Expected: 90/4,90/4,90/4,90/4
Observed: 20,30,15,25
------------------------------
To make the Expected and the Observed whole numbers use:
Expected: 90,90,90,90
Observed: 80,120,60,100
---------------------------
Ho: The proportions are equal
H1: At least one of the proportions is not

I ran a Chi-Sq Goodness-of-Fit Test and got the following:
test statistic: Chi-Sq. = 24.75
p-value: 0.00001741...

Conclusion: Reject Ho at the 1% significance level.
At least one of the proportions is not equal.
