  Introduction to Probability and Statistics, Chapter 13, Problem 13.25SE , additional homework tip  2

From the provided output, the equation of the regression line is:

  y=8.585+3.88208x0.21663x2

a.

To determine

To interpret: The value of R2 and comment on the fit of the model.

a.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

From the provided output, the coefficient of determination is 0.944. It means that 99.8% of the variation in the model is explained. Since, the value is large enough it means that the provided model is fit enough.

c.

To determine

To find: Whether the model is significant at 5% level of significance.

c.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

From the provided excel output; the p -value is equal to 0.000 which implies that the regression model is highly significant.

c.

To determine

To find: Whether there is sufficient evidence to show that the quadratic model provides a better fir to the data than a simple linear model.

c.

Explanation of Solution

The prediction equation relating y^ and x1 when x2=4 can be calculated as:

  Y=28.4+1.46x1+3.84(4)=28.4+1.46x1

d.

To determine

To find: The number of defective items produced for an operator whose average output per hour is 25 and whose machine was serviced 3 weeks ago.

d.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Since, the p -value is less than the level of significance. Thus, it could be said that the quadratic model provided a better fit than a simple linear model

e.

To determine

To explain: Whether normality assumptions have been violated using the residual plot.

e.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

From the provided residual plot, it could be said that there is no violation of normality assumptions. It means that model is well fitted.

The class will include a data exercise where students will be introduced to publicly available data sources. Students will gain experience in manipulating data from the web and applying it to understanding the economic and demographic conditions of regions in the U.S. Regions and topics of focus will be determined (by the student with instructor approval) prior to April. What data exercise can I do to fulfill this requirement? Please explain.
Consider the ceocomp dataset of compensation information for the CEO’s of 100 U.S. companies. We wish to fit aregression model to assess the relationship between CEO compensation in thousands of dollars (includes salary andbonus, but not stock gains) and the following variates:AGE: The CEOs age, in yearsEDUCATN: The CEO’s education level (1 = no college degree; 2 = college/undergrad. degree; 3 = grad. degree)BACKGRD: Background type(1= banking/financial; 2 = sales/marketing; 3 = technical; 4 = legal; 5 = other)TENURE: Number of years employed by the firmEXPER: Number of years as the firm CEOSALES: Sales revenues, in millions of dollarsVAL: Market value of the CEO's stock, in natural logarithm unitsPCNTOWN: Percentage of firm's market value owned by the CEOPROF: Profits of the firm, before taxes, in millions of dollars1) Create a scatterplot matrix for this dataset. Briefly comment on the observed relationships between compensationand the other variates.Note that companies with negative…
6 (Model Selection, Estimation and Prediction of GARCH) Consider the daily returns rt of General Electric Company stock (ticker: "GE") from "2021-01-01" to "2024-03-31", comprising a total of 813 daily returns. Using the "fGarch" package of R, outputs of fitting three GARCH models to the returns are given at the end of this question. Model 1 ARCH (1) with standard normal innovations; Model 2 Model 3 GARCH (1, 1) with Student-t innovations; GARCH (2, 2) with Student-t innovations; Based on the outputs, answer the following questions. (a) What can be inferred from the Standardized Residual Tests conducted on Model 1? (b) Which model do you recommend for prediction between Model 2 and Model 3? Why? (c) Write down the fitted model for the model that you recommended in Part (b). (d) Using the model recommended in Part (b), predict the conditional volatility in the next trading day, specifically trading day 814.
