The table 4.15 indicates that the working capital or the amount
of cash women entrepreneurs used at the start has increased since the mean
amount of cash used at the start was 578,816 Rfr and are currently in the
business 3,943,416 which represent an increase of 581%.

Table 4.16 help to test the null hypothesis which indicate
that the mean amount of cash (working capital) at the start of the business and
currently in the business for women entrepreneurs are still equal. The results
indicate that we reject the null hypothesis since at 95% confidence interval
p-value of 0.000 is less 0.05. The result indicates that women entrepreneurs
have made a lot of profits in all their activities since their amount of cash
they had when they start the business has increased.
