The success of an airline depends heavily on its ability to provide a pleasant customer experience. One dimension of customer service on which airlines compete is on-time arrival. The tables below contains a sample of data from delayed flights showing the number of minutes each delayed flight was late for two different airlines, Company A and Company B.

Company A
34 59 43 30 3
32 42 85 30 48
110 50 10 26 70

105 46 28 39 86
75 45 33 50 62
42 34 33 65 65

(a)

Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to test for a difference between the population mean minutes late for delayed flights by these two airlines. (Let μ1 = population mean minutes late for delayed Company A flights and μ2 = population mean minutes late for delayed Company B flights.)

H0: μ1μ2 ≤ 0

Ha: μ1μ2 > 0

H0: μ1μ2 < 0

Ha: μ1μ2 = 0

    

H0: μ1μ2 ≠ 0

Ha: μ1μ2 = 0

H0: μ1μ2 ≥ 0

Ha: μ1μ2 < 0

H0: μ1μ2 = 0

Ha: μ1μ2 ≠ 0

(b)

What is the sample mean number of minutes late for delayed flights for each of these two airlines?

Company A min

Company B   min

(c)

Calculate the test statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

What is the p-value? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

p-value =

Using a 0.05 level of significance, what is your conclusion?

Reject H0. There is no statistical evidence that one airline does better than the other in terms of their population mean delay time.

Do not reject H0. There is no statistical evidence that one airline does better than the other in terms of their population mean delay time.  

Reject H0. There is statistical evidence that one airline does better than the other in terms of their population mean delay time.

Do not Reject H0. There is statistical evidence that one airline does better than the other in terms of their population mean delay time.

Your company has earnings per share of $5. It has 11million shares​ outstanding, each of which has a price of $40. You are thinking of buying​ TargetCo, which has earnings of $3 per​ share,11million shares​ outstanding, and a price per share of $27. You will pay for TargetCo by issuing new shares. There are no expected synergies from the transaction. Suppose you offered an exchange ratio such​ that, at current​ pre-announcement share prices for both​ firms, the offer represents a 20% premium to buy TargetCo.​ However, the actual premium that your company will pay for TargetCo when it completes the transaction will not be 20%​, because on the announcement the target price will go up and your price will go down to reflect the fact that you are willing to pay a premium for TargetCo without any synergies. Assume that the takeover will occur with certainty and all market participants know this on the announcement of the takeover​ (ignore time value of​ money).

a. What is the price per share of the combined corporation immediately after the merger is​ completed?

b. What is the price of your company immediately after the​ announcement?

c. What is the price of TargetCo immediately after the​ announcement?

d. What is the actual premium your company will​ pay?

Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) is a human genetic disorder. As well as physical symptoms, affected children often suffer from impaired cognition and learning. A cognitive task that involves solving a puzzle is administered to a group of children. For each child the time taken (in seconds) to solve the task is recorded.

It is not known whether there is any suitable parametric model for the times so we will investigate non-parametric methods.


1. Calculate appropriate summary statistics and thus give the parameters for a normal distribution that may be applicable to these data.

2. Using the observed data, calculate the empirical distribution function. Plot the empirical distribution function and the CDF of the normal distribution described in (a) on a single graph.

3. Do you think the normal distribution is an appropriate model for the data? Justify your answer.

It is known that the mean time to solve the puzzle in healthy control children is 60 seconds.

The data for the observed times ?? taken by 57 children with NF1 are:

Exhibit L.1 reports the multivariate odds ratios comparing each category to women who never had an induced abortion and had at least one pregnancy. Researchers were able to interview 845 out of 1,011 (83.5 percent) of the eligible cases and 961 out of 1,239 (78 per- cent) of the eligible controls. Of the cases, only 689 (81.5 percent) had complete information on abortion history, compared to 781 (81.3 per- cent) of the eligible controls.

A small, private firm has approached you for advice on its capital structure decision. It is in the specialty retailing business, and it had earnings before interest and taxes last year of $ 500,000.

  • The book value of equity is $1.5 million, but the estimated market value is $ 6 million.
  • The firm has $ 1 million in debt outstanding, and paid an interest expense of $ 80,000 on the debt last year. (Based upon the interest coverage ratio, the firm would be rated AA, and would be facing an interest rate of 8.25%.)
  • The equity is not traded, but the average beta for comparable traded firms is 1.05, and their average debt/equity ratio is 25%.

a) Estimate the current cost of capital for this firm.

b) Assume now that this firm doubles it debt from $1million to $2million, and that the interest rate at which it can borrow increases to 9%. Estimate the new cost of capital, and the effect on firm value.
