Pine Valley Bank has three branches. You have been asked to evaluate the efficiency of each. The following inputs and outputs are to be used for the study:

■ input 1= labor hours used (hundreds per month)


■ input 2 = space used (in hundreds of square feet)

■ input 3=  supplies used per month (in dollars)

■ output 1= loan applications per month


■ output 2 = deposits processed per month (in thousands)


■ output 3=  checks processed per month (in thousands) The relevant information is given in the file P04_42.xlsx. Use these data to determine whether any bank branches are inefficient.
