1. Suppose you want to counter a claim made in class by Professor Jim Battista that Republicans care less about education than Democrats do. After a recent PSC 200 class on difference of means tests, you collect data on the 2010-2015 change in the property tax rate for counties with Republican-controlled

governments, R ~ N(μ ,s 2 ), and those with Democrat-controlled governments, D ~ N(μ ,s 2 ). iRR iDD

Given that the majority of public elementary and secondary school funding comes from property taxes, change in property taxes serves as a measure of local government concern for education. Based on a

random sample of 31 Republican-controlled counties, you find that R = 4.8 and s R = 12.6 . Based on a

random sample of 41 Democrat-controlled counties, you find that D = 10.3 and s D = 10.2 . Using these sample estimates, test the null hypothesis at the 5% significance level that there is no partisan difference in the 2010-2015 change in the property tax rate, i.e., μ D - μ R = 0 . [12 points]

On 1 July 2019, Batman Ltd acquired all the issued shares (cum div.) of Robin Ltd for $150 000. At this date the equity of Robin Ltd consisted of:

Share capital $75 000
Retained earnings $22 500

At this date, Robin Ltd had recorded a dividend payable of $22 500 which was paid in August 2019. All the identifiable assets and liabilities of Robin Ltd were recorded at amounts equal to fair values except for inventory for which the fair value was $3 000 greater than carrying amount. Only 10% of the inventory on hand at 1 July 2019 remained unsold by 30 June 2020. The tax rate is 30%.

During the 2019–20 period, the following transactions occurred.

(a) Batman Ltd sold inventory to Robin Ltd for $90 000 at a profit before tax of $18 000. At 30 June 2020, inventory which was sold to Robin Ltd for $37 500 at a profit before tax of $7 500 was still on hand in the records of Robin Ltd.

(b) On 1 January 2020, Batman Ltd sold machinery to Robin Ltd at a gain of $15 000. The machinery was considered to have a further 5-year life.

(c) During the period Robin Ltd rented a warehouse from Batman Ltd, paying $3 750 in rent to Batman Ltd.

(d) During the period Batman Ltd recorded gains from revaluation of land, which is measured using the fair value method. These gains increased the asset revaluation surplus by $6 000 to give a balance of $42 000 at 30 June 2020.

(e) In June 2020, an impairment test was conducted on Robin Ltd and resulted in the recognition of impairment losses on goodwill of $24 000 (recognised in other expenses)

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering​ cholesterol, 43 subjects were treated with garlic in a processed tablet form. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes ​(before−​after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol​ (in mg/dL) have a mean of 5.7and a standard deviation of 17.7Construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of the mean net change in LDL cholesterol after the garlic treatment. What does the confidence interval suggest about the effectiveness of garlic in reducing LDL​ cholesterol?
