- In the linear model ,E (X*u) = a)X*u b) 0 c) u d) none of tha abovearrow_forwardWe know that discrimination exists. It influences wages, but also many other dimensions over the life cycle which affect wages indirectly. I run OLS regression with variables wage, age, female and degree. The dependent variable is log(wage) and we replace the variables female and degree with the interaction term. However, discrimination is not included among the observed regressors. Given that omitting confounding variables from regression model can bias the coefficient estimates, omitting discrimination would lead to biased results. Could you please help me provide an example of how unobserved gender discrimination can affect my OLS estimates. [Hint: think about ways in which discrimination can invalidate OLS assumptions.].arrow_forwardSuppose 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…arrow_forward
