Answer to Problem 14.48SE

The value of P is 0.04 and null hypothesis is rejected and the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate there is a significant difference between actual and experimental observations.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The problem experience consists of 4 tails was repeated 100 times.

The number of success gets as:

    No of successesNo of times obtained

      2

      9

Calculation:

As know that,

  p=x¯n

Where,

  n= number of trials.

  n=4

Now, for estimating p ,

So, consider

  x¯= x i f i f i x¯=200100x¯=2

Put the value of (x¯=2,n=4) in the equation of p

  p=x¯np=24p=0.5

Now, the expected values for a binomial experiment of 4 trails are,

  Exp=N×(nC xipxiqnxi)

Are 0.0625,0.25,0.375,0.25,0.0625 respectively.

Now, for testing whether the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate there is any significance difference between actual and the experimental observations or not.

The null hypothesis is,

  H0: There is sufficient evidence to indicate there is a significance difference between actual observation and experimental observations.

The alternative hypothesis is,

  H1: There is sufficient evidence to indicate there is a significance difference between actual observation and experimental observations.

In case test statistic x2 is too large, so there is a rejection of null hypothesis, H0 .

The chi-square statistic is,

  x2= ( Obsexp ) 2 exp=8.55558.56

Test statistic has (k11) degrees of freedom,

  df=(k11)df=(k2)df=(52)df=3

The P-value can be determined as,

  P(x2>8.56)=1P(x2>8.56)P(x2>8.56)=10.96P(x2>8.56)=0.04

Thus, the value of P is 0.04 which is smaller than the 0.05=α .

So, there is rejection of the null hypothesis because of low p value.

Thus, the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate there is a significant difference between actual and experimental observations.

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.

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.
