Based on the literature review you finished, now you should develop theory and hypothesis.
The number of hypotheses need not be too many, 1-3 hypotheses is enough as long as these hypotheses are TESTABLE. Please think of the data and methods that you will use in order to test the hypotheses that you developed.
Theoretical ModelThe theory draws from the model developed by Barro and Lee (1994) which is consistent with the endogenous growth theory. Endogenous growth theory takes into account the sources of technological progress such as human capital and role of government (Romer, 1994). The theory contends that economic growth is related with developments of new ideas, innovation and overall technological change and total factor productivity. Following endogenous growth theory, the concept of “trade openness” in this paper is measured by three variables that take into account of sources of technological change. The three variables that measure trade openness are, trade dependency ratio,…

Let wage denote hourly wages, educ denote years of education, and define the dummy variable:
if educ > 12
D =
if educ < 12
i.e. we can think of D as a dummy variable indicating graduation from high school.
Suppose we want to test the null hypothesis that the marginal return to education for every year after high school is the same as the marginal return to education for each
year before high school (against the alternative that they are different). Which model and test would accomplish this goal?
O a. Estimate wage = B1 + B2 educ + ß3 D + e and test Ho : ß3 = B2 against H1 : ß3 # B2.
O b. Estimate wage = ß1 + B2educ + ß3 D + e and test Ho : ß3 = 0 against H1 : ß3 # 0.
Estimate wage = B1 + B2educ + B3(educ + D) + e and test Ho : ß3 = 62 against H1 : B3 # B2.

Consider an equation to explain salaries of CEOS in terms of annual firm sales, return on equity (roe, in
percentage form), and return on the firm's stock (ros, in percentage form):
log(salary) = Bo + Bilog(sales) + Bzroe + B;ros + u.
(i) In terms of the model parameters, state the null hypothesis that, after controlling for sales and
roe, ros has no effect on CEO salary. State the alternative that better stock market performance
increases a CEO's salary.
(ii) Using the data in CEOSAL1, the following equation was obtained by OLS:
log (salary) = 4.32 + .280 log(sales) + .0174 roe + .00024 ros
(.32) (.035)
(.0041)
(.00054)
n = 209, R2 = .283.
By what percentage is salary predicted to increase if ros increases by 50 points? Does ros have
a practically large effect on salary?
(iii) Test the null hypothesis that ros has no effect on salary against the alternative that ros has a
positive effect. Cary out the test at the 10% significance level.

Our null hypothesis is that the true coefficient is zero. In
which case would we choose to use a one-sided alternative
hypothesis over a two-sided alternative hypothesis?
We choose a one sided alternative hypothesis when we have a
large sample size.
We choose a one sided alternative hypothesis when we specify a
low (0.01) significance level.
It does not matter what type of alternative hypothesis we specify.
Choose a one sided alternative hypothesis when the theory and
literature suggests either that the true coefficient should be
greater than zero or that the true coefficient should be less than
zero.
