Suppose that for a random sample of 200 firms that revalued their fixed assets, the mean ratio of debt to tangible assets was 0.517 and the sample standard deviation was 0.148. For an independent random sample of 400 firms that did not revalue their fixed assets, the mean ratio of debt to tangible assets was 0.489 and the sample standard deviation was 0.158. Find a 99% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.
