which of the following is the correct interpretation of the multicollinearity test?
You are given the following demand for European luxury automobiles:
Q= 1,000P-0.93 Pa0.75 Pj1.2 I1.6
Where P = Price of European luxury cars; Pa = Price of American luxury cars; Pj = Price of Japanese luxury cars; and I = Annual income of car buyers.
Assume that each of the coefficients is statistically significant (i.e., that they passed the t-test). On the basis of the information given, address the following:
What is the degree of substitutability between European and American luxury cars and between European and Japanese luxury cars.
What is the coefficient for the income variable.
What is he coefficient of the European car price variable.

- The residential division of Prism’s high-speed Internet service uses one advertising agency, while its commercial division uses another. Two analysts, Andy and Brad, are asked to test and evaluate the effectiveness of the two agencies. Andy proposes an A/B test that compares the click-through rates per ad for the two agencies. Brad proposes a difference-in-dif-ference test in which the budgets for both agencies are increased by 50%, and the percent change in click-through rates is compared. What might be the sources of selection bias for the two proposals? Which is likely to be smaller?arrow_forwardHansel has been making a cuckoo wristwatch, which he sells over the web. Customers are willing to pay $600 for Hansel’s watch, and each one costs him $240 to make. He has no fixed costs. Gretel is considering entry into this market. Her consultant has conducted a large-scale study of customers to determine how much they are willing to pay for watches of various quality levels. The consultant has found that customers’ willingness to pay equals 150q per watch, where q is a quality index the consulting firm has developed that ranges from 1 to 10. Gretel’s cost would be 15q2 per watch. Regardless of whether or not Gretel enters the market, and regardless of the quality level she chooses, Hansel will not change his competitive positioning. Suppose Gretel chooses to enter the market with a lower quality level to save on costs. Specifically, her quality index equals 3. What is her added value vis-à-vis Hansel (per watch)? What is the optimal quality level Gretel should choose…arrow_forwardAfter entering a lease in Uganda, a US company has increased crop production which has been documented to have contributed to food security in Uganda.

Half of One-Jet’s customers are leisure travelers and half are business travelers. Business travelers are willing to pay $600 for a ticket that does not require a Saturday stayover and $100 for a ticket that requires a Saturday stayover. Leisure travelers are flexible, willing to pay $300 for a ticket regardless of whether it requires a Saturday stayover. One-Jet is unable to determine whether a particular customer is a business or leisure traveler. Consequently, the airline’s current pricing policy is to charge $300 for all tickets. As a pricing consultant for One-Jet Airlines, can you devise a self-selection mechanism that will permit One-Jet to increase revenues and continue to serve all its customers?

Suppose there are two groups (male and female) whose average Zs are the same (i.e. Z_M =Z_F), but X_M < X_F and Y_M > Y_F (and again, employers know these population averages). Researchers decide to run a resume-based audit study where they randomize names based on gender (using typically male or female names) but hold constant Y. They provide no information on X. Which of the following would suggest taste-based discrimination? ● The call-back rate is the same for both sexes. ● The call-back rate is higher for men than for women ● We can't use differences in call-back rates to find suggestive evidence of taste-based discrimination because there's too many other factors that are different across the resumes. ● The call-back rate is higher for women than for menarrow_forward

- When I took the PRCA my scores were much high than the other two tests and I know that this test is essentially showing what my communication apprehension is like and I think that the reason that this test is much lower scored than all the others is because im just not really a communicative person. I do tend to find it at times hard to work with people and many times I would just much rather be tasked with doing something myself so I can get it done my way and I feel like that is just much more of an effective way for me to work on something. And knowing that I am already this way with people that are from a similar background with me then I am more inclined to not work well with people who are more different than that. I'm not unable to work with people I just prefer to work alone.
