4.3 Results interpretation
and hypothesis testing
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of women
entrepreneurs on economic development of Rwanda a case study of Expo 2010. This
were achieved by analyzing their monthly savings before and after becoming
entrepreneurs, their monthly expenditures before and after becoming
entrepreneurs and the amount of cash at the start of the business and currently
in the business. To test hypothesis paired-sample t test were used to test if
the mean monthly savings, mean monthly expenditure and mean working a capital
at the start all before they become entrepreneur and the mean monthly savings,
mean monthly expenditure, working capital currently The null hypothesis states
that they are equal. As indicated previously we rejected null hypothesis for
the three variables since their p-values are less than 0.05 at 95% confidence
interval.
Women entrepreneurs contributed to the development of Rwanda
as indicated previously in tables, and figures. Different figures and tables
help to test other non numerical variables that women entrepreneurs use to
contribute to the development of the country. Women entrepreneurs contribute to
export development as indicated since they sell their products outside the
country which create capital for the country, they contribute to the
development of Rwanda also through taxes payments, participation in local
development by participating in decision making and helps orphans, protecting
environment etc. Women entrepreneurs also participate in the development of
through their development since development start at home by increasing their
live standards. To test how an increase in one person in family can affect
currently monthly savings of women entrepreneurs the results show
y=64120.104+6773.830x1(family size) it shows that it can increase monthly
savings by 6773.830 Rfw and the model is significant at 95% since p-value of
0.05=0.05 alpha value. The last part analyzed the challenges that women
entrepreneurs face and how they tried to overcome this challenges. To test if
the challenges exist we used bar chart that ranked the challenges according to
percentages and the challenges affect the development of women entrepreneurs in
various ways.
