By taking into consideration the history of the Caribbean, the economic theories underpinning Caribbean development, as well as the features of the typical Caribbean economy, construct a hypothetical (ideal) economic model that you consider suitable for the economic development of the Caribbean. Ensure that you carefully explain/justify the reasoning behind the development of your model. NOTES: start with the models and theories discussed in this course. You should carefully examine each model. Based on this, you should be able to identify what aspects you think are relevant/necessary for the Caribbean context and which are not. Once you have the aspects of the model you deem relevant, you need to organise them into the “ideal” model of Caribbean economic development. This should include model objectives and assumptions that describe the setting and the behaviour of the economic agents, model inputs, etc. You will now need to analyse your new model. Be sure to clearly show…

We want identify the effect of years of education on wage. In the dataset, educ (X) is measured in years, and wage (Y) is defined as hourly wage and measured in dollars. Specifically, we want to estimate = wage Boẞ₁educ + u Assume E(u) = E(u|educ) = 0 The regression result is shown on the table below. . reg wage edu Source SS df MS Number of obs 797 F(1, 795) 274.52 Model Residual 54070.9621 156590.357 1 54070.9621 795 196.969002 Prob F 0.0000 R-squared Total 210661.319 796 264.649898 Adj R-squared. = Root MSE 0.2557 14.035 wage Coef.
