Suppose the mean debt/equity ratio of the population of all banks in the United States is 20 and the population variance is 25. A banking industry analyst uses a computer program to select a random sample of 50 banks from this population and compute the sample mean. The program repeats this exercise 1000 times and computes the sample mean each time. According to the central limit theorem, the sampling distribution of the 1000 sample means will be approximately normal if the population of bank debt/equity ratios has: A. any probability distribution. B. a normal distribution, because the sample is random. C. a Student's t-distribution, because the sample size is greater than 30. |
