1. Assume that you plan on estimating the following regression kids 2.28-0.98educu where kids is number of kids in the family, educ is years of education, and u is the unobserved error. (a) (10 points) What is the interpretation of the intercept? (b) (10 points) What is the interpretation of the coefficient on educ? 3. Returning to the regression in equation 1: (a) (8 points) Are there omitted variables contained in u? Are any of these likely to be correlated...
Let kids denote the number of children born to a woman, and let educ denote years of education for the woman. A simple model relating fertility to years of education is 3. where ui is the unobserved error. a. What kinds of factors are contained in u? Are these likely to be correlated with the level of education? Do you expect the sign of the slope parameter to be positive or negative? Why? b.
Suppose you are interested in studying the factors that influence wages. You plan on using a multiple regression model with k = 3 explanatory variables. In particular, you plan on estimating: wage = Bo + Bieduc + Bzexper+Bz age where wage = hourly wage in dollars educ = years of education exper = years of work experience age = age, in years An alternative way of estimating Ba would be to regress wage on re , (wage; = Bo +...
3. Consider you are interested in estimating the determinants of earnings. For this purpose you estimate a regression of annual earnings (EARN , in $000's) as a function of the years of education EDUC, with 12 being high school, 16 a bachelor degree, etc.) and the years of experience EXP number of years working). The estimated regression you obtain from a sample of one thousand individuals is (standard errors in parenthesis): EARN;= -50.3 +3.0*EDUC +1.5*EXP (0.42) (0.44) 7.1 3.4 RP=0.45...
QUESTION 1 Consider the following OLS regression line (or sample regression function): wage =-2.10+ 0.50 educ (1), where wage is hourly wage, measured in dollars, and educ years of formal education. According to (1), a person with no education has a predicted hourly wage of [wagehat] dollars. (NOTE: Write your answer in number format, with 2 decimal places of precision level; do not write your answer as a fraction. Add a leading minus sign symbol, a leading zero and trailing...

4. Consider the following regression model of log(rage) log(wage)-As + &female + βί educ + u, where wage is hourly wage, female is a dummy variable indicating gender (1 for women and 0 for men), and educ is the number of years of education. Augment the model to allow the return to education to differ by gender
