What is the intuition behind the answer? Imagine that we run the regression y; = Bo+B1xe and recover the OLS estimates...
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...
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...
Section 1 A) Suppose you are interested in studying the relationship between the number of books that college students read per month and their first monthly wage after graduation. Employing random sampling process, you collect a large set of data {(nbooks,, wage ), i = 1, ... , n} for these variables and observe the following pattern: a correct nbooks wage nbooks = nbooks 1 1000 2 1050 3 1102.5 4 1157.625 5 1215.506 6 1276.282 7 1340.096 1407.1 9...
1. In the simple regression model y = + β1x + u, suppose that E (u) 0. Letting oo-E(u), show that the model can always be rewrit ten with the same slope, but a new intercept and error, where the new error has a zero expected value 2. The data set BWGHT contains data on births to women in the United States. Two variables of interest are the dependent variable, nfan birth weight in ounces (bught), and an explanatory variable,...
