ECON 122B
1. You have obtained a sub-sample of 1744 individuals from the Current Population Survey (CPS) and
are interested in the relationship between weekly earnings and age. Earn and Age are measured in
dollars and years respectively.
a) Write down the regression equation

b) Write down the estimated equation

c) Interpret the coefficients.

d) Interpret the measures of fit.

e) The average age in this sample is 37.5 years. What is the average annual income in this sample?

f)

Is the relationship between Age and Earn statistically significant?
State the null and the alternative hypotheses

Calculate the value of the test statistic

State your decision

State your conclusion

2

ECON 122B
g) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the slope coefficient.

2. You decide to control for gender in addition to age in your regression results.
a. Write down the new regression equation

b. Write down the new estimated equation

c.

Interpret the coefficients.

d. How much, on average, does a 40-year-old female make per year in your sample?

e. How much, on average, does a 20-year-old male make per year in your sample?

f.

Interpret the change in the adjusted R-squared between the first and the second
regression.

ECON 122B
g. Your friend thinks that age and gender do not affect earnings. Does your data support his
claim?
State the null and the alternative hypotheses

Calculate the value of the test statistic

State your decision

State your conclusion

ECON 122B
3. You have collected 14,925 observations from the Current Population Survey. There are 6,285
females in the sample, and 8,640 males. The females report a mean of average hourly earnings of
$16.50 with a standard deviation of $9.06. The males have an average of $20.09 and a standard
deviation of $10.85. The overall mean average hourly earnings is $18.58.
a) You decide to run two regressions: first, you simply regress average hourly earnings on an
intercept only. Next, you repeat this regression, but only for the 6,285 females in the sample.
What will the regression coefficients be in each of the two regressions?

b) Finally you run a regression over the entire sample of average hourly earnings on an intercept
and a binary variable DFemme, where this variable takes on a value of 1 if the individual is a
female, and is 0 otherwise. What will be the value of the intercept? What will be the value of the
coefficient of the binary variable?

c) You have read in the news that women make 70 cents to the $1 that men earn. Do your
regression results support this claim?
i.

Specify your null and alternative hypothesis.

ii.

Calculate the standard error of the slope coefficient.

iii.

Perform the test.

  • Feather essays is awesome, really. I can’t just say enough about how well their services are custom-made to meet students’ needs. I mean have been using other services from different websites with erratic degree of satisfaction, but this is way too perfect. I’m thankful their team understand all about essays requirement. I had an essay assignment due in two days so I had to seek for their help, at first I thought they wouldn’t be able to do it perfectly since it was the first time I was using their service. Well, I guess I was wrong. Another thing I also liked about feather essays is how they communicate with clients, so simple, they made me feel at ease even though I was under pressure. From my standpoint, their platform is very intuitive, and it’s pretty much dummy-proof. Thanks to you guys I passed, it’s really hard to recommend anything but feather essays for quality service.

  • I mostly do silly mistakes in term papers and essays, and while going through the instructions I used to get stuck after a few steps. I must say I always get annoyed whenever this happened and I had started doubting if I will make it through college. I had lost confidence in myself, I felt uncomfortable and unmotivated in doing assignments. One day I was just going through the internet looking for help with my essay, I found out about feather essay.

They instantly help me with my essays and explain to me everything about it. Thanks to you guys, you help me save a lot of time and concentrate on other class work.
