Sample I (public accounting): ₁ = 60.35, S₁ = 3.25, n₁ = 12
Sample II (financial planning): ₂ = 58.20, S₂ = 2.48, n₂ = 14
Test whether the mean starting annual salaries for individuals entering the public accounting professions is higher than that of financial planning assuming that the two population variances are the same.
