To evaluate a certain job training program, an experiment is conducted assigning individuals from a random sample of disadvantaged workers to treatment and control groups. The administrators of the experiment are the only providers of the training program. Of course, those assigned to the treatment may choose whether or not to participate in the training program.

Suppose you are told that the ITT is $2400 for women and $200 for men; LATE is $3000 for women and $400 for men.

WOMEN Treatment Control
# Observations 300 100
# Enrolled in Training B
Average Earnings X 6,000

MEN Treatment Control
# Observations 300 300
# Enrolled in Training N A
Average Earnings Y 9,800

(a) Determine what numbers should be in the cells that contain A and B.

(b) Calculate the average earnings for women (X) and men (Y) in the treatment group.
