Suppose that you had data on the amount of pollution in London every year. Write down the regression equation that you would need to estimate to measure the effect of ULEZ on pollution. Describe carefully what the dependent variable, the independent variable, the unit of observation (time or location), and the main coefficient of interest are. What control variables do you think should be included in this regression?

How would you control for a home’s type in a regression model? b) Write down a regression model that includes controls for home type, square footage, and number of bedrooms. c) How would you interpret the es3mated coefficients for each of the variables from part b?

In 2017, Philadelphia launched a sweetened beverage tax of 1.5 cents per ounce, raising the cost of a 2-liter soda bottle from about $1.50 to $2.50. One year later, the Philadelphia mayor wants to evaluate if this "sugar tax" improves the health status of Philadelphia Propose ONE method (i.e. difference-in-difference, instrumental variables, or regression discontinuity) to address these questions. write down its implementation details (the type of data you need, potential sources to get the data, equations) its pros and cons Only Typing answer please I need ASAP

Suppose the Sherwin-Williams Company has developed the following multiple regression model, with paint sales Y (x 1,000 gallons) as the dependent variable and promotional expenditures A (x $1,000) and selling price P (dollars per gallon) as the independent variables. Y=α+βaA+βpP+εY=α+βaA+βpP+ε Now suppose that the estimate of the model produces following results: α=344.585α=344.585, ba=0.102ba=0.102, bp=−11.192bp=−11.192, sba=0.173sba=0.173, sbp=4.487sbp=4.487, R2=0.813R2=0.813, and F-statistic=11.361F-statistic=11.361. Note that the sample consists of 10 observations. 1.) According to the estimated model, holding all else constant, a $1,000 increase in promotional expenditures decrease or increase sales by approximately 102,813 or 11,192 gallons. Similarly, a $1 increase in the selling price decrease or increase sales by approximately 813,11,192 or 102 gallons. 2.)Which of the independent variables (if any) appears to be statistically significant (at the 0.05…
According to Environmental Kuznets curve, it is expected that there is an Inverse-U shape relationship between pollution and real income such that the following quadratic functional form (regression model) must be specified: Y = a1 + a2 X + a3 X² + u where the variables Y and X represent respectively air pollution (CO2) and real income (RGDP). u is the random error. a) Suppose a researcher wants to investigate the relationship between pollution and real income by defining a linear functional form such as Y = B1+ B2 X+e. Show technically how you test whether quadratic form or linear form is the correct model specification using Ramsey's Reset test. b) Suppose R² is found 0.75 from quadratic form, 0.55 from linear form and 0.73 from the auxiliary regression. Given n=35, carry out Reset test and interpret the result. c) Suppose you found out that the correct specification is the quadratic regression. In this case, would estimating the linear functional form result in an unbiased estimate…

Sally Sells Sea Shells by the Sea Shore and collects all sales dataNow she is curious to find out what the elasticity of demand is for her shells Assume they are all the same type and quantity She scatter plots the data and finds there is a linear relationship that looks ripe for a regression estimation of the price response function for her shells The slope of her regression line is 61. Currently, her average daily price is 11.74 and she sells 95 quantity at that priceCalculate the point elasticity of demand for her sea shells
