Using out two-team model, graphically demonstrate that the marginal revenue (MR) from hiring talent is equal across large and small revenue markets in equilibrium. In the same graph, show and clearly label revenue imbalance, competitive imbalance and payroll imbalance.
Hint: You should use a two-team model (one large revenue team and one small revenue team and assume that their winning percentages sum to 1.00)
MRL = 100 – 120 WL
MRS = 60 – 80 WS
Solve for both winning percents and the MR in equilibrium. Show this on your graph.

Olestra is a fat substitute approved by the FDA for use in snack foods. Because there have been anecdotal reports of gastrointestinal problems associated with olestra consumption, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled experiment was carried out to compare olestra potato chips to regular potato chips with respect to GI symptoms (“Gastrointestinal Symptoms Following Consumption of Olestra or Regular Triglyceride Potato Chips,” J. of the Amer. Med. Assoc., 1998: 150-152). Among 529 individuals in the TG control group, 17.6% experienced an adverse GI event, whereas among the 563 individuals in the olestra treatment group, 15.8% experienced such an event.
(a) Carry out a test of hypotheses at the 5% significance level to decide whether the incidence rate of GI problems for those who consume olestra chips according to the experimental regimen differs from the incidence rate for the TG control treatment.
(b) If the true percentages for the two treatments were 15% and 20%, respectively, what sample sizes (m = n) would be necessary to detect such a difference with probability 0.90?
