Thank you so much !

Transcribed Image Text:Consider the regression model
Y; = B1X1i + B2X2; + Ui
for i = 1, ..., n.
• Specify the least squares function that is minimized by OLS.
• Compute the partial derivatives of the objective function with respect to
B1 and B2.
• Compute the second derivatives of the objective function with respect to
B1 and B2. Is the least squares function quadratic?
• Derive an expression for B1 as a function of the data (Y;, X1i, X2i), i =
1,...,n.
• Suppose E-1 X1;X2i = 0. Show that
i=D1
n
i=1
i=1
• Suppose the equation satisfies MLR.1-MLR.4, please derive E(ß1).
• Suppose the equation satisfies MLR.5, please derive Var(Bì).
• Suppose that the model contains an intercept. Also suppose that
n
E(Xli – X1) (X2i – X2) = 0
i=1

Transcribed Image Text:Show that
βΣ(Χ - Χ1) (Y-Υ) /Σ ( Χ- X.).
i=1
i=1
How does this compare to the OLS estimator of B1 from the regression
that omits X2 ?
• Suppose you are interested in B1, the causal effect of X1 on Y. Suppose
that X1 and X2 are uncorrelated. You estimate B1 by regressing Y onto
X1 (so that X2 is not included in the regression). Does this estimator
suffer from omitted variable bias? Explain.
