The following model can be used to study whether campaign expenditures affect election outcomes: vote A = Bo + Bilog(expendA) + B₂log (expendB) +33prtystrA +u where vote is the percentage of the vote received by Candidate A, expendA and expendB are campaign expenditures by Candidates A and B, and prtystrA is a mea- sure of party strength for Candidate A (the percentage of the most recent presidential vote that went to A's party). 1. What is the interpretation of B₁? 2. In terms of the parameters, state the null hypothesis that a 1% increase in A's expenditures is offset by a 1% increase in B's expenditures. 3. Estimate the given model using the data in VOTE1.dta (from Wooldridge) and report the results in usual form. Do A's expenditures affect the outcome? What about B's expenditures? Can you use these results to test the hypothesis in part 2?

In a congressional district somewhere in the U.S., a new representative is being elected. The voters all have one-dimensional political views that can be neatly arrayed on a left-right spectrum. We can define the ”location” of a citizen’s political views in the following way. The citizen with the most extreme left-wing views is said to be at point 0 and the citizen with the most extreme right-wing views is said to be at point 1. If a citizen has views that are to the right of the views of the fraction x of the state’s population, that citizen’s views are said to be located at point x. There are two candidates for the congressional seat and they are forced to publicly state their own political position simultaneously on the zero-one left-right scale. 1.a Suppose voters always vote for the candidate whose stated position is nearest to their own views and suppose each candidate cares only about getting as many votes as possible. In equilibrium, what will be the two candidates’ positions?…

Suppose we are interested in evaluating the impact on wages of being a college graduate and of residing in California. To this end we define the following dummy variables if college graduate if not college graduate coll = ncoll = if not college graduate if college graduate 1 cali = if residing in California S 1 if not residing in California ncali = if not residing in California if residing in California and for wages denoting yearly wages, we estimate the following model of returns to education wages = B1 coll+ B2ncoll + B3 cali + B4(coll x cali) + e where E[e|coll, cali] = 0. Which parameter or combination of parameters measures the increase in expected wages from obtaining a college degree (comparing to not having a college degree) when residing California? O a. None of the other options is correct O b. Bi – B2 O c. B1 – B2 + ß4 O d. B4 O e. Bi + B3 – ßi – B4 O f. Bi + B4 – ß2 – B4 Clear my choice
