can you help with these questions and briefly explain how you got to the answer. it would be a big help thank for your time. Question 1 Suppose that the conditional variance is var(WXi) = (x), where i is a constant and h is a known function. The WLS estimator: O A. is the estimator obtained by first dividing the dependent variable and regressor by h and then regressing this modified dependent variable on the modified regressor using OLS. O...
Question 2 (10 points) You are given the following model y-put ei. Consider two alternative estimators of β, b2xvix? and b = Zy/X 1. Which estimator would you choose and why if the model satisfies all the assumptions of classical regression? Prove your results. (4 points) 2. Now suppose that var(y)-hxi, where h is a positive constant (a) Obtain the correct variance of the OLS estimator. (2 points) (b) Show that the BLU estimator is now 6. Derive its variance....
Which of the following statements is true? (a) If the calculated value of F statistic is higher than the critical value, we reject the alternative hypothesis in favor of the null hypothesis. (b) The F statistic is always nonnegative as SSR, is never smaller than SSRur. (C) Degrees of freedom of a restricted model is always less than the de- grees of freedom of an unre- stricted model. (d) The F statistic is more flexible than the t statistic to...
Please provide your answer with a detailed description on how you came to that answer please! ECN 702 Econometrics II HW2 Due: Jan 29 1. Suppose the true conditional mean function is but by mistake, a researcher ran least square regression without the x term as in Assume cov (X,, U,)s 0, E [Xn]-O and E [x?J-1.

Hey could someone please answer this in regards to part F ? That is the part of the question I am struggling with 1. Consider the regression model Y = BX1i + 2X2 +U, for i = 1,...,n (notice that there is no intercept in the regression). (a) Specify the least squares function that is minimized by OLS. (b) Compute the derivatives of the objective function with respect to B, and B. (C) Suppose that D-1 X1 X2 = 0....
