A cement mix company is renowned for providing high strength concrete additives - at high unit cost. It delivers two types of cement additives - Tuf and Rok. In making these additives the company adds two special products, Qikcem and Plascem. These additives contain two (2) basic ingredients: Lime and Flyash, in different proportions, as shown in the table below.

Some citizens complained to city council members that there should be equal protection under the law against the occurrence of crimes. The citizens argued that this equal protection should be interpreted as indicating that high-crime areas should have more police protection than low-crime areas. Therefore, police patrols and other methods for preventing crime (such as street lighting or cleaning up abandoned areas and buildings) should be used proportionately to crime occurrence. The city has been broken down into 20 geographic areas, each containing 5,000 residences. The police recognize that not all crimes and offenses are reported: people do not want to become involved, consider the offenses too small to report, are too embarrassed to make a police report, or do not take the time, among other reasons. Every month, because of this, the police are contacting by phone a random sample of 1,000 of the 5,000 residences for data on crime. (Respondents are guaranteed anonymity.) The 1,000…
Porter five forces model, developed by Michael E. Porter of Harvard University in 1979, holds the purpose to analyse theindustry in order to determine the level of intensity regarding the competition and attractiveness of the industry. Theattractiveness of an industry is measured in terms of profit; more profitability means a more attractive industry and lowprofitability means a low attractive industry. Porter’s Five Forces model is a powerful management tool for analysing thecurrent industry profitability and attractiveness by using the outside-in perspective. Within the last decades, the model hasattracted some criticism because of the developing Internet economy. Due to an increasing significance of Digitalization,Globalization and Deregulation, the industry structure of the ‘Old Economy’ changed fundamentally. The ‘New Economy’ isnot comparable with the ‘Old Economy’, which is the basis of the Five Forces model. Moreover, the last decades haveshown that Information Technology…
In research, it is very important to identify the different types of variable. Variables may assume categorical or numerical values. Make a report regarding the different types of variables, their uses and if possible, examples.
Suppose that you want to study the effect of occupational licensing on quality of care received at nursing homes. Suppose further that you come across a policy which states that facilities with fewer than 100 beds are not required to hire licensed workers, while those with over 100 beds are required to hire licensed workers. Suppose further you assume that facilities with fewer than 100 beds are similar to facilities with just over 100 beds (as if it is random which facilities fall on which side of the threshold). Given this description, the most straightforward method you can use to identify the causal effect of licensing requirement on quality of care is: Difference-in-differences (diff-in-diff) Instrumental variables (IV) Regression discontinuity design (RDD)
