24 hours a day, there are workers who use 16 hours of leisure (L) and labor (E), excluding 8 hours of sleep. It benefits from the workers' leisure (L) and consumption (C). The utility function of this worker is U(L, C)=L*C. The worker's hourly wage is 10 and the given non-earned income is 10. When both labor and capital income are used for consumption (C), find consumption C that maximizes utility of workers. (However, the price of consumer goods is 1)

Jeremy earned $102,100 in salary and $8,100 in interest income during the year. Jeremy’s employer withheld $11,000 of federal income taxes from Jeremy’s paychecks during the year. Jeremy has one qualifying dependent child who lives with him. Jeremy qualifies to file as head of household and has $32,700 in itemized deductions. (Use the tax rate schedules.) Assume the original facts except that Jeremy has only $7,000 in itemized deductions. What is Jeremy’s tax refund or tax due?

Make sure that all statistical analysis to be done in Excel and/or StatCrunch and answer all parts:
You will be performing an analysis on heights in the US population, broken out by gender. You will need to know that US heights for males and females both follow an approximately normal distribution. The average height for women is 63.7 inches and a standard deviation of 2.7 inches. The average height for men is 69.1 inches and a standard deviation of 2.9 inches. You will use these numbers in your calculations.
Steps (all statistical analysis to be done in Excel and/or StatCrunch):
1. Collect the heights from 5 females and 5 males that you know. Make sure that you put all heights into inches. Include yourself in the analysis (as one of the 10).
2. Normal Distribution application:
a. Calculate z-scores for each of the selected people and provide interpretations for at least 2 of your z-scores (after looking up probabilities on the table). You also need to include interpretations that indicate how “rare” your observations are in the body of your paper. (Ex: Individual A from my sample with a height of ______ had a corresponding z-score of _____. This means that _______% of people are taller/shorter than him/her)
b. Include one graphic that shows the normal curve along with labels for the middle 68%, 95% and 99.7%. Also show where your own height is on the curve along with an interpretation of how relatively “tall” or “short” you are in comparison with the rest of your gender.
c. Calculate the mean of your male heights and female heights and compare this with the population mean (is it above/below – why is it not exact).
d. Calculate z-scores for the average heights of WNBA and NBA players (typically much taller than the average person) and also male jockeys (typically quite a bit shorter than the average person). Provide interpretations for each.
3. Binomial Experiment application:
a. In order to be considered for a tier 1 point guard in women’s basketball, you need to be 5’8”. Let’s consider a “success” as finding a woman who is 5’8” or taller. The probability of success is approximately 5%. If we consider a sample of 1000 women, calculate the mean and the standard deviation of the binomial random variable.
b. Calculate the range of “normal” observations (not unusual) for the number of women that we would expect to be 5’8” or taller in a sample of 1000 women and use it in a sentence.
c. Use a binomial calculator to calculate the probability of selecting*:
i. Less than 40 women who are 5’8” or taller
ii. Exactly 60 women who are 5’8” or taller
iii. Between 50 and 80, inclusive, women who are 5’8” or taller
iv. More than 70 women who are 5’8” or taller
v. At least 60 women who are 5’8” or taller
*Don’t just give answers here, use complete sentences. Graphs would be a nice addition here (StatCrunch screen grabs or Excel graphs).
d. Can we use the normal distribution as an approximation for the binomial in this case? Why or why not? If yes, what is the probability that we would choose less than 40 women who are 5’8” or taller using this approximation? How does this value compare with the value calculated in part c(i) above?

Consultex, Inc., was founded in 2015 as a small financial consulting business. The company had done reasonably well in 2015–2017 but started noticing its cash dwindle early in 2018. In January 2018, Consultex had paid $15,000 to purchase land and repaid $3,000 principal on an existing promissory note. In March, the company paid $1,800 cash for dividends and $1,000 to repurchase and eliminate Consultex stock that had previously been issued for $1,000. To improve its cash position, Consultex borrowed $4,800 by signing a new promissory note in May and also issued stock to a new private investor for $11,800 cash. Year-end comparative balance sheets and income statements are presented below.
