Chapter 14.1, Problem 20E
Applying What You’ve Learned.
Comparing wage data. The following bar graphs compare women’s and men’s hourly wages in a recent year. Use these graphs to answer Exercises 17 – 22. Because you are estimating your answers by looking at the graphs, your answers may not agree exactly with ours.
In what age and wage categories do women seem to have the biggest advantage (in terms of a percent difference) over men?

Consider an MA(6) model with θ1 = 0.5, θ2 = −25, θ3 = 0.125, θ4 = −0.0625,
θ5 = 0.03125, and θ6 = −0.015625. Find a much simpler model that has nearly the
same ψ-weights.
Let {Yt} be an AR(2) process of the special form Yt = φ2Yt − 2 + et. Use first principles
