Keynesian consumption function expresses consumption as a function of disposable income.Specifically, it statesConst = B0 + B1 YDt + Ut,where: Const: aggregate personal consumer expenditures (PCE) in year t.YDt: Disposable income in year t.B1 is called the marginal propensity to consumer (MPC). Economists have found that the value ofMPC differs in the short run and the long run. Economists also found that in the long run the properform of the consumption function is:Const = B1 YDt + utUsing the “Consumption fn Data” file posted on part 2 of this question, estimate the consumption function in theU.S. You need to run two regressions:• Using 1960 to 1980 data (include all 1960 and 1980 data in the regression), estimate theshort run consumption function in the U.S.• Using all the data set, estimate the long run consumption function in the U.S.Part 1 of 2
Consider a linear demand model to explain the quantity demanded for a product:
where Q = quantity sold, Price = price of the product, Income = purchaser’s income, Advert = advertising. The following data was collected in year 2018. The company spends millions of money in advertisements. The company wants to know how advertisementas well how other factors affect the quantity of units sold.
The results are as follows:

A cost accountant is developing a regression model to predict the total cost of producing a batch of printed circuit boards as a linear
function of batch size (the number of boards produced in one lot or batch), production plant (Kingsland, and Yorktown), and
production shift (day, and evening). In this model, "shift" is

What prediction does this formula give for average tuition and fees at four-year American private nonprofit universities for the academic year ending in 2021?arrow_forwardEmployee Turnover The percentage of employees who cease their employment during a year is referred to as employee turnover, and it is a serious issue for businesses. The following table shows the cost, in millions of dollars, to Walmart for a given employee turnover percentage in a year.13 E = employee turnover 10 20 30 40 C = cost 250 400 550 700 a. Show that the data can be modeled by a linear function. b. Find the slope of the linear function. c. Find a linear model for the data. d. Use the result from part c to find the cost to Walmart if employee turnover is 33 in a year.arrow_forwardMarket supply The following table shows the quantity S of wheat, in billions of bushels, that wheat supplies are willing to produce in a year and offer for sale at a price P, in dollars per bushel. S = quantity of wheat P = price 1.0 1.35 1.5 2.40 2.0 3.45 2.5 4.50 In economics, it is customary to plot S on the horizontal axis and P on the vertical axis, so we will think of S as a variable and of P as a function of S. a. Show that these data can be modeled by a linear function, and find its formula. b. Make a graph of the linear formula you found in part a. This is called the market supply curve. c. Explain why the market supply curve should be increasing. Hint: Think about what should happen when the price increases. d. How much wheat would suppliers be willing to produce in a year and offer for sale at a price of 3.90 per bushel?arrow_forward
- High School Graduates The following table shows the number, in millions, graduating from high school in the United States in the given year. Year Number graduating in millions 1985 2.83 1987 2.65 1989 2.47 1991 2.29 a. By calculating difference, show that these data can be modeled using a linear function. b. What is the slope for the linear function modeling high school graduations? Explain in practical terms the meaning of the slope. c. Find a formula for a linear function that models these data. d. Express, using functional notation, the number graduating from high school in 1994, and then use your formula from part c to calculate that value.arrow_forwardaThe average rate of change of a function f between x=a and x=b is the slope of the ___________ line between (a,f(a)) and (b,f(b)).arrow_forwardCan you guide me on this question how to interpret the summary result in a professional write uparrow_forward
- INTERPRET THE RESULT1) Check for consistency in the relationship between quantity demand and the three explanatory variables as postulated in demand theory by indicating the change in the quantity demanded of the commodity for each unit change in the explanatory variables. 2)Find and interpret the adjusted and the unadjusted coefficient of determination.arrow_forwardAgnes, a General Manager in XXX Company, estimated a multiplicative demand function of the form: using a cross-section data collected in the company sales on 30th June, 2019. The estimation results are as follows: (SEE IMAGE) Write down the estimated demand equation Interpret the coefficients and R2 value Describe any three managerial decisions that can be applied by the manager from the estimated demand functionarrow_forwardIf the revenue function for a particular commodity is R(p) = -55p2 + 65p, what is the (linear) demand function q(p)? q(p) = Give a reason for your answer. R= pq R=9-P R=9 P R-p+q P R= alaarrow_forward
