Suppose the manager of a large appliance and electronics store wants to estimate the amount spent by customers during the holiday season. He took a random sample of customers and recorded the amount they spent. A histogram of the amount spent shows that the distribution of the sample is strongly left-skewed. The figures below show the confidence intervals for the mean amount spent using (A) raw (untransformed) data, and (B) log-transformed data, which showed a more normally distributed data set.



Calculate the width of both intervals and state which interval is narrower after converting the log-units back to the original units.
