Please completely answer the below Biostatistic question.

Hurricanes Rita and Katrina caused flooding of large parts of New Orleans, leaving behind large amounts of new sediment. Before the hurricanes, the soils of New Oleans were known to have high concentrations of lead, a dangerous toxin capable of creating potential health hazard. Zaharan et al. (2010) were interested in the human health impacts of the flood and so measured lead concentrations of blood (in ug/dl) of children who lived in 46 different affected areas both before and after the floods. Complete the responses for the following R outputs.

R Output

data: lead$bloodLeadAfter and lead$bloodLeadBefore

t = -6.0538, df = 70.325, p-value = 6.212e-08

alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal to 0

95% confidence interval: -2.563481 -1.293041

sample estimates: mean of x = 3.21087, mean of y = 5.13913

a.) Name the sampling unit and sample size

b.) Name the variable(s) and associated scale(s)

c.) Name the design (one-sample t-test, two-sample t-test, paired t-test)

d.) Is this an appropriate design, given the narrative above? Why or why not?

e.) Name the population parameter of interest, using specific descriptors from the narrative (hint: write what are we estimating in specific terms)

f.) Use the output to write the null hypothesis for the associated t-test (be sure to state it in terms of the population parameter of interest)

g.) Use the confidence interval from the output to write a statement about the set of plausible values for the parameter estimate, and to evaluate the plausibility of the null hypothesis.

h.) Use the null hypothesis to write a statement interpreting the p-value from the output. (Do not use more or less than 0.05.as reasoning)

On December 31, 2020, Petra Company invests $26,000 in Valery, a variable interest entity. In contractual agreements completed on that date, Petra established itself as the primary beneficiary of Valery. Previously, Petra had no equity interest in Valery. Immediately after Petra’s investment, Valery presents the following balance sheet:

Cash $ 26,000 Long-term debt $ 114,000
Marketing software 146,000 Noncontrolling interest 78,000
Computer equipment 46,000 Petra equity interest 26,000
Total assets $ 218,000 Total liabilities and equity $ 218,000

Each of the amounts represents an assessed fair value at December 31, 2020, except for the marketing software.

The December 31 business fair value of Valery is assessed at $104,000.

  1. If the carrying amount of the marketing software was undervalued by $31,000, what amounts for Valery would appear in Petra’s December 31, 2020, consolidated financial statements?

  2. If the carrying amount of the marketing software was overvalued by $31,000, what amounts for Valery would appear in Petra’s December 31, 2020, consolidated financial statements?
