1) B. Yes, minorities are promoted at 51.6% the rate that non-minorities are promoted
Explanation: Rate at which non-minorities promoted = 15/31 = 0.484
Rate at which minorities promoted = 6/24 = 0.25
Using 4/5 rule, Rate at which minorities promoted / Rate at which non-minorities promoted = 0.25/0.484 = 51.6 %
This is less than 80% (4/5) therefore, adverse impact exists.
2) C. No, minorities were hired at 82.7% the rate that non-minorities were hired
Explanation: Rate at which non-minorities hired = 30/65 = 0.462
Rate at which minorities hired = 21/55 = 0.382
Using 4/5 rule, Rate at which minorities hired / Rate at which non-minorities hired = 0.382/0.462 = 82.7 %
This is greater than 80% (4/5) therefore, adverse impact does not exist.
