Q.6. Estimate the production of eotton in the year 1935 from the data given below: \begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline Year \( (x) \) & 1931 & 1932 & 1933 & 1934 & 1935 & 1936 & 1937 \\ \hline Production & 17.1 & 13 & 14 & 9.6 & - & 12.4 & 18.2 \\ \hline \end{tabular} Ans. Let missing teun \( f(1935)=a \) \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline\( x \) & \( f(x) \) & \( \Delta f(x) \) & \( \Delta^{3} f(x) \) & \( \Delta^{3} f(x) \) & \( \Delta^{4} f(x) \) & \( \Delta^{5} f(x) \) & \( \Delta^{6} f(x) \) \\ \hline 1931 & 17.1 & -4.1 & & & & & \\ \hline 1932 & 13 & 1 & 5.1 & -10.5 & & & \\ \hline 1983 & 14 & -4.4 & -5.4 & \( a+0.2 \) & \( a+10.7 \) & \( -5 a+16.3 \) & \\ \hline 1934 & 9.6 & \( a-9.6 \) & \( a-5.2 \) & \( -3 a+27.2 \) & \( -4 a+2.7 \) & \( 10 a-82.8 \) & \( 159-99.1 \) \\ \hline 1935 & \( a \) & \( -a+12.4 \) & \( -2 \alpha+22 \) & \( 3 a-28.6 \) & \( 6 a-55.8 \) & & \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} 1936 \\ 1937 \end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} 12.4 \\ 18.2 \end{tabular} & 5.8 & \( a-6.6 \) & & & & \\ \hline \end{tabular} \( \because \) Six values are known to us. \( \because 3 \) values are known

Step 1
We are given a table of cotton production from 1931 to 1937, but the production for the year 1935 is missing. We need to estimate this missing value using the given data. Show more…

The table shows the yield (in bushels per acre) and the total production (in millions of bushels) for corn in a country for selected years since 1950. Let x represent years since 1900. Find a logarithmic regression model (y = a + b ln x) for the yield. Estimate the yield in 2026. Year x Yield 1950 50 34 1960 60 57 1970 70 75 1980 80 100 1990 90 115 2000 100 135 2010 110 151 The regression model is y = + ( )ln x. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

The annual cotton crop yield (in 1000 bales) in the United States for the period $2003-2007$ can be approximated by the polynomial $-1264 x^{2}+5056 x+18,960,$ where $x$ is the number of years after 2003. (Source: Based on data from the National Agricultural Statistics Service) a. Find the approximate amount of the cotton harvest in 2004. To do so, let $x=1$ and evaluate $-1264 x^{2}+5056 x+18,960$ b. Find the approximate amount of cotton harvested in 2007 . c. Factor the polynomial $-1264 x^{2}+5056 x+18,960$.

C16 Use the data in WAGEPAN.DTA to answer the following questions. (i) Using lwage as the dependent variable, estimate a model that only contains an intercept and the year dummies d81 through d87. Use pooled OLS, RE, FE, and FD (where in the latter case you difference the year dummies, along with lwage, and omit an overall constant in the FD regression). What do you conclude about the coefficients on the year dummies? (ii) Add the time-constant variables educ, black, and hisp to the model, and estimate it by OLS and RE. How do the coefficients compare? What happens if you estimate the equation by FE? (iii) What do you conclude about the four estimation methods when the model includes only variables that change just across t or just across i? (iv) Now estimate the equation lwage_it = α_t + β_1union_it + β_2married_it + β_3educ_i + β_4black_i + β_5hisp_i + c_i + u_it by random effects. Do the coefficients seem reasonable? How do the nonrobust and cluster-robust standard errors compare? (v) Now estimate the equation lwage_it = α_t + β_1union_it + β_2married_it + c_i + u_it by fixed effects, being sure to include the full set of time dummies to reflect the different intercepts. How do the estimates of β_1 and β_2 compare with those in part (iv)? Compute the usual FE standard errors and the cluster-robust standard errors. How do they compare?
