Hotel occupancy is an important measure of tourism activity in Forda. Hotel occupancy data from February of the current year and previous year are presented. The proportions occupied were 0.29 for the current year and 0.14 for the previous year. A hypothesis test is conducted to determine if there was an increase in the occupancy rate over the one-year period. The p-value is calculated to be less than 0.05, so the null hypothesis that there is no difference between proportions is rejected.

1. Tourism is extremey important to the economy of forda. Hotel occupancy is an often-reported
measure of visitor volume and vistor activity (Orfando Sentinet, May 19,2018 ). Hotel occugancy
