Due to the pandemic, the Malaysian government had announced total lockdown known as MCO in the country whereby everyone is required to (c) work from home until further notice. Lesser movements are allowed on the roads and the security is tight on this matter. Due to this scenario, there is a sudden increment of the birth rate in a small town in Seremban. It is almost double from previously. After 4 years, the birth rate is expected to normalize. Use demand and supply diagram to illustrate the effect of these events linking with the following statements. (i) The market for an hour of babysitting services in Seremban during the rise of birth rate. (ii) The market for an hour of babysitting services 20 years in the future, after the birth rate has been normalized. Assuming the children born today are old enough to work as babysitters. The market for an hour of babysitting services 30 years into the future, when children born today are likely to be having children of their own. (iii)

To study the determinants of growth across the countries in the world, researchers have used country level observations averaged over long periods of time (e.g. averaged over 1960- 2000). Some of these studies have focused on the effect that inflation has on growth and found that although the effect is small for a given time period, it accumulates over time and therefore has an important negative effect. (a) Explain why the OLS estimator may be biased in this case. (b) Some authors have suggested using an index of the Central Bank Independence as an instrumental variable. Discuss whether or not such an index would be a valid instrument (discuss both relevance and exogeneity; note that instrumental validity is more of an economic rather than econometric concept

Suppose that you work for a U.S. senator who is contemplating writing a bill that would put a national sales tax in place. Because the tax would be levied on the sales revenue of retail stores, the senator has asked you to prepare a forecast of retail store sales for year 8, based on data from year 1 through year 7. The data are: (c1p2) Year Retail Store Sales 1 $1,225 2 1,285 3 1,359 4 1,392 5 1,443 6 1,474 7 1,467 54 Chapter One a. Use the first naive forecasting model presented in this chapter to prepare a forecast of retail store sales for each year from 2 through 8. b. Prepare a time-series graph of the actual and forecast values of retail store sales for the entire period. (You will not have a forecast for year 1 or an actual value for year 8.) c. Calculate the root-mean-squared error for your forecast series using the values for year 2 through year 7. 3.

In a given community, the unemployment rate is 3.1% and their working-age population is 1.2 Million. Labor force participation was 92% in this community in December of 2009. In January 2010, this community takes in 80,000 refugees, 65,000 of which are working-age adults. All working-age refugees will be looking for a job in January and if they cannot find one will continue to look until they do. If 70% of the refugees start a new job in January, what will be the Unemployment rate in this community in February 1st? ( Please round your answer to include 2 decimal places, do not include the percent sign in the answer. That is, If you find 8.33333% is the new unemployment rate, input your answer as 8.33)
