Suppose that in the model of Myers and Majluf (1984) the parameters take on the following values: λ = 0.60, H = 3, L = 2, I = 1.0, R = 1.25, r = 10 per cent. Use the above data and answer the following questions: (a) Does the model have a separating equilibrium, a pooling equilibrium, or both? (b) Based on your answer to question (a), what is the gain in wealth of the current shareholders of a firm that announces the issuing of new shares to finance the project of investment?

You and your research partner want to use Instrumental Variable analysis to write an econometrics paper and find causal estimates. Your partner argues that because the residuals and the instrument are uncorrelated, the exogeneity requirement is satisfied. What do you tell your research partner: a) You agree, the exogeneity requirement is satisfied by construction b) You agree, the exogeneity requirement is satisfied by their demonstration c) You disagree, you would need the results of the White Test to make this conclusion d) You disagree, the exogeneity requirement cannot be tested as we do not observe the error terms e) You cannot make any conclusions with the current information

tate whether the following statements are true or false with a brief explanation: a) Logit model is estimated by minimising the sum of the squares residuals of the model. b) In difference-in-differences analysis, the assumption of ‘parallel trends’ is generally testable. c) Suppose you have estimated a model Y = 0.2 – 0.7D + 2X + 0.4X*D. Y and X are continuous variables and D is a dummy variable.
