The following description will be used in questions 3a to 3d and bonus III.   Consider a firm that produces output y using capital k and labor l, according to the technology described by f(k,l) ≥ y and following a restriction g(k,l) ≥M; where f and g are functions of k and l, and M is a nonnegative value. Let r be the rental rate for capital and w the wage rate.   If the firm takes its output y as given and chooses inputs k and l to minimize costs, then the firm’s cost minimization problem is:   minimize   rk +wl     ,  by choosing k,l subject to:  f(k,l) = y   and   g(k,l) ≥M

Problem 4 Description: Two different Types of injection-molding machines are used to form plastic parts. A part is considered defective if it has excessive shrinkage or is discolored. Two random samples, each of size 100, are selected, and 12 defective parts are found in the sample from machine 1 while 5 defective parts are found in the sample from machine 2. Is it reasonable to conclude at 0.04 level of significance that machine 1 produces higher higher fraction of defective parts than machine 2?   Use Excel to do all the computations. Answer all the questions below and upload your Excel file to the last question and submit.

In addition to paying federal income taxes, many states require individuals to also pay state income tax.  Single people living in the state of Minnesota who earn between $25,100 and $82,400 fall into the 7% tax bracket.  This means they pay $1,340 plus 7% of their income over $25,100 in taxes.  Jordan Barnett is a Minnesota resident who earns $63,780.  Calculate the amount of money that Jordan would pay in Minnesota income taxes.  Be sure to write down the mathematical expression used in your calculation on your paper! Input your answer only in dollars and cents.
