Suppose that your company is offered a contract to produce 1,000 units of a good X per day. Your company uses labor and capital to produce good X. The quantity of labor used, _L_, is expressed by hours of work, and the wage rate is $10 per hour. The quantity of capital utilized, _K_, is expressed in machine-hours, and the rental rate per machine hour is $40. Thus total cost of production is TC = 10L + 40K. The production function is given by Q = 20L 0.5 K 0.5. In the contract, your company is required to produce 1,000 of good X. a) Using the Lagrange function, determine the amount of labor and capital to use to minimize the cost of producing 1,000 units of good X. (14 marks) b) Interpret lambda and what it means to your company. (6 marks)

Wall Street securities firms paid out record year-end bonuses of $125,500 per employee for 2005 (_Fortune, _February 6, 2006). Suppose we would like to take a sample of employees at the Jones & Ryan securities firm to see whether the mean year-end bonus is different from the reported mean of $125,500 for the population. A. State the null and alternative hypotheses you would use to test whether the year-end bonuses paid by Jones & Ryan were different from the population mean. B. Suppose a sample of 40 Jones & Ryan employees showed a sample mean year-end bonus of $118,000. Assume a population standard deviation of _Σ_ =$30,000 and compute the _p_-value. C. With _α _= .05 as the level of significance, what is your conclusion? D. Repeat the preceding hypothesis test using the critical value approach.
