WOLAK* Stanford Received lJniversi[v‚ February Stunford‚ CA 94305‚ tiSA 1986‚ final version received July 1988 This paper develops three asymptotically equivalent tests for examining the validity of imposing linear inequality restrictions on the parameters of linear econometric models. First we consider the model .v = X/3 + e. where r is N(O‚8)‚ and the

ECO 1 chapter An overview of regression analysis Econometrics – literally ‚‚economic measurement” is the quantitative measurement and analysis of actual economic and business phenomena. Econometrics has three major uses: 1) Describing economic reality 2) Testing hypothesis about economic theory 3) Forecasting future economic activity The simplest use of econometrics is description. For most goods‚ the relationship between consumption and disposable income is expected

the demand for the product. The consultant should also describe the methodology of a multiple linear regression and its purpose in estimating a demand function. The consultant should then run a multiple linear regression in linear and multiplicative forms based on the data provided by the company and report on the estimated result. They will have to evaluate the estimated demand equations both in linear and multiplicative forms‚ select the one‚ which can best describe the consumption. The consultant

Regression with a Binary Dependent Variable Binary Dependent Variables and the Linear Probability Model • • • Many of the decisions made by people are binary. What factors drive a person’s decision? This question leads to regression with a binary dependent variable. The binary choice problem is an example of models with limited dependent variables (see Appendix 9.3 for details). Note that the multiple regression model discussed earlier does not preclude a dependent variable from being binary

Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Crime is as old as mankind itself. Since the biblical crime back in the days of Cain‚ societies have emerged‚ laws have been created‚ and prohibitions have been declared but violations of forbiddances have continued. Crime has been with us from the very beginning; it has never ceased to disturb men’s living together (Schafer‚ 1996). Crime has negative impacts in many ways. Its costs and effects touch everyone to some degree. The types of costs

scientific manner. This paper aims at examining various macro economic variables and use statistical methods to find the impact of these variables on each other. For this objective secondary data has been obtained about inflation rate (CPI)‚ bank rate and real GDP of India during the years 2004 to 2013. This data is on quarterly basis and hence contains over 30 observations. This data is obtained from the Bloomberg Terminal and the website www.rbi.org.in and regression analysis is employed to obtain

how sales are influenced by the price of their product. To do so‚ the company randomly chooses 6 small cities and offers the candy bar at different prices. Using the candy bar sales as the dependent variable‚ the company will conduct a simple linear regression on the data below: Prics ($) | Sales | 1.30 | 100 | 1.60 | 90 | 1.80 | 90 | 2.00 | 40 | 2.40 | 38 | 2.90 | 32 | | | What is the estimated slope (b1 for this data set? 161.3855 0.784 -0.3810 -48.193 POINT VALUE:
