If the absenteeism rates for a school district rise above 10%,
the state reduces its aid to the school district. Stermerville
independent school district takes a sample of five schools within
the district and finds the following absenteeism
rates:5.4%,8.6%,4.1%,8.9%, and 7.8%. What is your best estimate of
the absenteeism rate in Stermerville? Is it likely that the
absenteeism rate is greater than 10%?
Suppose Congress votes to decrease corporate income tax rates.
Use the AD/AS model to analyze the likely impact of the tax cuts on
