Consider the job market signaling game given the figure below. The worker has two types: H and L, and q is the probability associated with type H. The production functions and indifference curves are as shown in the figure. In a pooling Perfect Bayesian Equilibrium of this game, the range of values possible for equilibrium level of education, Epool is (with an appropriate set of beliefs): (a) e1 only. (b) [e1, e3] (c) [e1, e2] (d) [e2, e3].

car manufacturer is concerned about poor customer satisfaction at one of its dealerships. The management decides to evaluate the satisfaction surveys of its next 60 customers. The dealership will be fined if the number of customers who report favorably is between 42 and 49. The dealership will be dissolved if fewer than 42 customers report favorably. It is known that 72% of the dealership’s customers report favorably on satisfaction surveys. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.] a. What is the probability that the dealership will be fined? (Round final answer to 4 decimal places.) b. What is the probability that the dealership will be dissolved? (Round final answer to 4 decimal places.)
An actuary is analyzing the lapse experience of his company's whole life product. The tabulated results are as follows: Age group % of whole life policyholders probability of lapsing 8 % < 20 5 % 20 – 29 13 % 5 % 30 – 39 21 % 4 % 40 – 49 29 % 4 % 50 – 59 17 % 3 % 60 + 12 % 2 % Since the age group 40-49 is the most profitable, what is the probability that a lapsed policy will belong to this cohort?
Exercise 4. A certain species of plant always has either three or five leaves. The number is random, with P(3 leaves) 0.4 and P(5 leaves) = 0.6. Each plant has a flower which, randomly, is either open or closed, with probabilities P(open) = 0.8 and P(closed) = 0.2. A botanist collects 1000 randomly chosen plants from this species and nds the following distribution of traits: open closed N3,closed 3 leaves N3,open 5 leaves NE,open N5, closed a) Assuming the two traits are independent, determine the expectations of the counts №3,open, N3,closed, N5,0-en, and N5,close in the table. b) Determine an approximate value for the probability P(N3,open > 340). Exercise 5. Assume that we have observed the following values from a normal distribution with known variance o2 = and unknown mean . 1.23 -0.67 1.16 1.67 0.24 2.99 0.02 .17 0.27 21.

For an experiment on influencing the choices of others by offering undesirable alternatives, each of 103 college students selected three portable grills from five to display on a showroom floor. The students were instructed to include Grill #2 (a smaller-sized grill) and select the remaining two grills in the display to maximize purchases of Grill #2. If the six possible grill display combinations (1-2-3, 1-2-4, 1-2-5, 2-3-4, 2-3-5, and 2-4-5) were selected at random, then the proportion of students selecting any display was 1/6=0.167. One theory tested by the researcher was that the students would tend to choose the three-grill display so that Grill #2 was a compromise between a more desirable and a less desirable grill(that is, display 1-2-3, 1-2-4, or 1-2-5). Of the 103 students, 57 selected a three-grill display that was consistent with this theory. Use this information to test the theory proposed by the researcher at α=0.01. 1. Identify the test statistic, z.…
blindness. Would these results be surprising? Explain why or why not. 4) At the end of basketball practice, each player on the team must shoot free throws until he makes 10 of them. Slim is a 70% free-throw shooter. That is, his probability of making any free throw is 0.70. Given this information, the dotplot below shows a simulation of 120 trials of shooting 12 free throws with a 0.70 chance of making any free throw. : 4 : 5 6 8 9 7 Number of Made Free Throws 10 11 red-green color 12 a) Explain what the two dots at 5 represents. b) Use the simulation to estimate the probability that Slim makes 10 or more free throws. 3 1297091 c) Based on the results from the simulation, how many free throws is Slim most likely to make in 12 attempts? d) Therefore, based on your answer to part (c), how many total attempted free throws do you predict Slim will have to take before he can finish practice and go home.
A company is facing three types of decisions for the purchasing of a seasonal product. The profitprojection may depend on the demand level. The payoffs for the situations are given in the followingtable:DemandDecision High (s1) Medium (s2) Low (s3)d1 60 60 50d2 80 80 30d3 100 70 101.
