4. Consider the model yi-β +82i + ei. Find the OLS estimator for β.
Consider a simple linear regression model with nonstochastic regressor: Yi = β1 + β2Xi + ui. 1. [3 points] What are the assumptions of this model so that the OLS estimators are BLUE (best linear unbiased estimates)? 2. [4 points] Let βˆ and βˆ be the OLS estimators of β and β . Derive βˆ and βˆ. 12 1212 3. [2 points] Show that βˆ is an unbiased estimator of β .22
7. When we impose a restriction on the OLS estimation that the intercept estimator is zero, we call it regression through the origin. Consider a population model Y- Au + βίχ + u and we estimate an OLS regression model through the origin: Y-β¡XHi (note that the true intercept parameter Bo is not necessarily zero). (i) Under assumptions SLR.1-SLR.4, either use the method of moments or minimize the SSR to show that the βί-1-- ie1 (2) Find E(%) in terms...
Consider the following slope estimator: b=2i=1 Yi Suppose the true model is ki + Bo + Bicite and the model satisfies the Gauss-Markov conditions. Answer the following questions: (a) What assumption in addition to the Gauss-Markov assumptions is required to estimate the model? (b) Show that in general, b is a biased estimator of B1. (c) Outline the special condition(s) under which b is an unbiased estimator of B1.
Question 1 Consider the simple regression model (only one covariate): y= BoB1 u Let B1 be the OLS estimator of B1. a) What are the six assumptions needed for B1 to be unbiased, have a simple expression for its variance, and have normal distribution? (3 points) b) Under Assumptions 1-6, derive the distribution of B1 conditional on x\,..., xn. (3 points) In lecture we described how to test the null hypothesis B1 bo against the alternative hypothesis B1 bo, where...
3. Let y = (yi..... Yn) be a set of re- sponses, and consider the linear model y= +E, where u = (1, ..., and e is a vector of zero mean, uncorrelated errors with variance o'. This is a linear model in which the responses have a constant but unknown mean . We will call this model the location model. (a) If we write the location model in the usual form of the linear model y = X 8+...
