Four different coating formulations are tested to see if they reduce the wear on cam gears to a value below 100 𝜇m. The null hypothesis H_{0} : \mu ≥ 100\ \mu m is tested for each formulation, and the results are
 Formulation A:   P = 0.37
 Formulation B:   P = 0.41
  Formulation C:   P = 0.005
Formulation D:Â Â Â P = 0.21
The operator suspects that formulation C may be effective, but he knows that the P-value of 0.005 is unreliable, because several tests have been performed. Use the Bonferroni adjustment to produce a reliable P-value.
Four tests were performed, so the Bonferroni adjustment yields P = (4)(0.005) = 0.02 for formulation C. So the evidence is reasonably strong that formulation C is in fact effective.
