Question

John Swanson, president of Market Research Inc., has asked you to estimate the coefficients of the model
Y = β0 + β1X1 + β2X21 + b3X2
where Y is the expected sales of office supplies for a large retail distributor of office supplies, X1 is the total disposable income of residents within 5 miles of the store, and X2 is the total number of persons employed in information-based businesses within 5 miles of the store. Recent work by a national consulting firm has concluded that the coefficients in the model must have the following restriction:

b1 + b2 = 2

Describe how you would estimate the model coefficients using least squares.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given information:

Y=β0+β1X1+β2X12+β3X2

The restriction is,

β1+β2=2

Step 2

Using the least square method, the squared error will be,

E=Yi-Y^2=Yi-β0+β1X+β2X12+β3X22=Yi-β0+β1X+2-β1X12+β3X22  

Estimation of β0 :

On partial differentiating E with respect to β0 and putting it equal to zero, the equation becomes,

Eβ0=0Yi-β0+β1X1+2-β1X12+β3X22β0=02Yi-β0+β1X1+2-β1X12+β3X2-1=0-Yi+β0+β1X1+2-β1X12+β3X2=0Yi=nβ0+β1X1+2-β1X12+β3X2...(1)

Estimation of β1 :

On partial differentiating E with respect to β1 and putting it equal to zero, the equation becomes,

Eβ1=0Yi-β0+β1X1+2-β1X12+β3X22β1=02Yi-β0+β1X1+2-β1X12+β3X2-X1+X12=0Yi-X1+X12- β0-X1+X12- β1X1-X1+X12-2-β1X12-X1+X12-β3X2-X1+X12=0Yi-X1+X12= β0-X1+X12+β1X1-X1+X12+2-β1X12-X1+X12+β3X2-X1+X12...(2)
