This lab exercise asks you to evaluate the housing market. The data set housingprices40.csv contains all sales of single-family homes in Davis, CA in May 2018 (n = 40). Assume that these homes are a random sample. The dependent variable in the regression model is the natural logarithm of the actual price of each house sold. The regression specification is: In(price;) = B2 + B2 In(estimate;) + B3bdrms; + B4bathrms; +B; In(sqrft;) + B6 In(lotsize}) + Brage; + Bapooli+Bocentrali + & where price is the house selling price, estimate is the estimated housing value from April 2018 from a prominent online site that values homes, bdrms is the number of bedrooms, bathrms is the number of bathrooms, sqrft is the interior square footage, lotsize is size of the lot (in feet), age is the age of the house in years, pool is a binary variable set to…
The measure of standard error can also be applied to the parameter estimates resulting from linear regressions. For example, consider the following linear regression equation that describes the relationship between education and wage: WAGE: = Bo + B₁ EDUC; + &i where WAGE; is the hourly wage of person i (i.e., any specific person) and EDUC; is the number of years of education for that same person. The residual ₂ encompasses other factors that influence wage, and is assumed to be uncorrelated with education and have a mean of zero. Suppose that after collecting a cross-sectional data set, you run an OLS regression to obtain the following parameter estimates: WAGE;= -10.7+ 3.1 EDUC; If the standard error of the estimate of B₁ is 1.04, then the true value of B₁ lies between grows, you would expect this range to in size. and .

A finance manager employed by an automobile dealership believes that the number of cars sold in his local market can be predicted by the interest rate charged for a loan. Interest Rate (%) Number of Cars Sold (100s) 3 5 10 7 8 2 The finance manager performed a regression analysis of the number of cars sold and interest rates using the sample of data above.

A researcher wants to test the relationship between the number of years of formal education received (X) and the average weekly earnings (Y) (measured in hundred dollars). A report released by a government agency suggests that the average weekly earnings of individuals with no formal education is equal to $545. The researcher wants to test whether the average weekly earnings with no formal education is $545 or greater than that. He collects data from a sample of 120 individuals and estimates the following regression function: Y-6.91+2.30X, (1.25) (4.25) where , is the predicted value of the weekly earnings for the individual and the standard errors for the coefficients appear in parenthesis. The f-statistic for the test the researcher wants to conduct will be (Round your answer to two decimal places)
A home appraisal company would like to develop a regression model that would predict the selling price of a house based on the age of the house in years (X1), the living area of the house in square feet (X2), and the number of bedrooms (X3). The following regression model was chosen using a data set of house statistics: y=88,399554791.3333x231,471.1372x3 The first house from the data set had the following values: Selling price $324,000 Age - 22 years Square Feet 2.000 Bedrooms 3 The residual for this house is 23,558 -41,480 10,216 -16,095 27
46) The following model is a simplified version of the multiple regression model used by Biddle and Hamermesh (1990) to study the trade-off between time spent sleeping and working and to look at other factors affecting sleep: sleep = Bo + B₁totwrk + ß₂educ + ß3age +u, where sleep and totwrk (total work) are measured in minutes per week and educ and age are measured in years. (i) If adults trade off sleep for work, what is the sign of f₁? (ii) What signs do you think ₂ and 3 will have? (iii) Using the data in SLEEP75, the estimated equation is sleep = 6,241.15 + 0.211totwrk + 9.22educ + 1.67age n = 211, R² = 0.981 If someone works five more hours per week, by how many minutes is sleep predicted to fall? Is this a large tradeoff? (iv) Discuss the sign and magnitude of the estimated coefficient on educ. (v) Would you say totwrk, educ, and age explain much of the variation in sleep? What other factors might affect the time spent sleeping? Are these likely to be correlated with totwrk?
A. B. Consider data on births to women in the United States. Two variables of interest are the dependent variable, infant birth weight in ounces (bwght), and an explanatory variable, average number of cigarettes the mother smoked per day during pregnancy (cigs). The following simple regression was estimated using data on n = 1,388 births: bwght = 119.772 (0.572) n = 1,388, 0.514 cigs (0.091) R² = 0.0227, where standard errors are shown in parenthesis. What percent of the variation in birth weight is explained by cigs? What is the predicted birth weight when cigs = 0? What about when cigs = 20 (one pack per day)? Comment on the difference.
We estimate a simple regression explaining monthly salary (salary) in terms of IQ score (IQ), using data from a random sample of 935 individuals. We obtain the following estimated regression line: salary = 117 + 8.30 × IQ What is the correct interpretation of the estimated slope coefficient? Individuals with IQ scores of 100 have, on average, monthly wages of $830. An additional one point increase in IQ score is associated, on average, with an increase in monthly salary of $8.30. An additional one point increase in IQ score is associated, on average, with a decrease in monthly salary of $8.30. Each additional one point increase in IQ score will cause an increase in an individual's monthly salary by $8.30.
