Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are widely believed to be a driver of global climate change. In this problem set you will use cross-section data to test what drives countries’ “carbon footprints,” that is, their CO2 emissions. Is it population, or is income the bigger culprit? The data set “CO2 by country 2010 sh S17” contains data on a sample of countries’ CO2 emissions, in kilotons; population, in millions; and gross national income (GNI), in millions of US dollars, for the...
Applying Simple Linear Regression to Your favorite Data. Many dependent variables in business serve as the subjects of regression modeling efforts. We list such variables here: Rate of return of a stock Annual unemployment rate Grade point average of an accounting student Gross domestic product of a country Salary cap space available for your favorite NFL team Choose one of these dependent variables, or choose some other dependent variable, for which you want to construct a prediction model. There may...
1. For each of the following regression models, write down the X matrix and 3 vector. Assume in both cases that there are four observations (a) Y BoB1X1 + B2X1X2 (b) log Y Bo B1XiB2X2+ 2. For each of the following regression models, write down the X matrix and vector. Assume in both cases that there are five observations. (a) YB1XB2X2+BXE (b) VYBoB, X,a +2 log10 X2+E regression model never reduces R2, why 3. If adding predictor variables to a...
Q3. A company in the field of fast moving consumer goods has launched several new products in recent years. The sales manager has to provide a forecast for sales in the next quarter. These forecasts are used to draw up an initial production plan, which is updated daily as new data becomes available. To provide these forecasts, the sales manager has conducted regression analysis but needs your advice on its interpretation. Extracts from the Excel regression analysis for products A...
