Homework Answers
Estimators are used in two different ways: point estimation and confidence estimation.
This statement is true.
An estimate of a population parameter may be expressed in two ways:
Point estimate.
A point estimate of a population
parameter is a single value of a statistic. For example, the sample
mean 
is a point estimate of the population mean 
.
Interval estimate.
An interval estimate is defined
by two numbers, between which a population parameter is said to
lie. For example, 
is an interval estimate of the population mean
. It indicates that the population mean is greater than 
but less than 
.

(36) Estimators are used in two different ways: point estimation and confidence estimation. (1) True. (2) False. (37) Which of the statements about large-sample estimation is correct? (1) An estimator should be unbiased and the spread (as measured by the mean) should be as small as possible. (2) The distance between an estimate and the true value of the statistic is called the error of estimation. (3) The 95% Margin of error is: 1.96 x Standard error of the estimator. (4) A good confidence interval is as...

Answer each question by writing TRUE or FALSE 1. For OLS estimators to be linear the explanatory variables must be variable, non- stochastic and fixed in repeated samples. Under the conditions of perfect multicollinearity, the OLS estimators are not unique. The presence of heteroskedasticity causes the OLS method to overestimate the variances 2. 3. of the parameters. The Breusch-Godfrey LM test is applicable when a lagged dependent variable is used. If we include a non-influential variable in an equation the...
