Above is a partial power table. Use that table to solve the following problems. Where math is required, show your work.

1. I am planning a study to examine the inter-relationships between four variables: preparedness (yes, no), practice (in minutes), handedness (left, right), and performance (% correct).

a) For preparedness and practice, I expect a ?² of about .09.

What sample size should I use to have power = .70?

b) For handedness and practice I expect a ?²of about .42.

What sample size should I use if I only want to risk a 30% chance of a Type II error?

c) For preparedness and performance I expect a ?²of about .20.

What sample size should I use to have a 70% chance of correctly rejecting H₀?    

d) Which of these three sample sizes do you suggest I use for the study? Explain your reasoning.

Consider the AS-AD model of a closed economy.

a. Write down the expressions for the AS and AD curves and interpret the expressions: what is the intuition behind the two curves? What must be true of the model parameters and variables in the long-run equilibrium, i.e. in the steady state?

b. Analyse the effects of a supply shock that causes a temporary increase in inflation, using a diagram. Assume that the shock lasts for one period and then assumes the value zero. Describe the mechanisms that bring the economy back to long-run equilibrium. What happens to aggregate demand?

c. Consider an economy that starts out in steady state when the central bank decides to make the inflation target more ambitious. Analyse the effects of a decrease in the inflation target from ?̅ to ?̅′. Explain the mechanisms behind the adjustment to the new steady state.

d. How would the slope of the AS and AD curves be affected if we instead were to consider an open economy? No derivations are needed, but please motivate your answer.

COMPUTER CALCULATIONS:

I need to know how to code in R for the solutions, not by hand.

2. Look at the data in Table 7.18 on page 368 of the textbook. These data are also

given in the SAS code labeled “SAS_basketball_goal_data” and R code labeled basketball goal data .

The dependent variable is goals and the independent variable is height of basketball players.

Complete a SAS /R program and answer the following questions about the data set:

(a) Does a scatter plot indicate a linear relationship between the two variables?

Is there anything disconcerting about the scatter plot? Explain.

(b) Fit the least-squares regression line (using SAS / R) and interpret the estimated slope

in the context of this data set. Does it make sense to interpret the estimated intercept? Explain.

(c) For these data, what is the unbiased estimate of the error variance? (Give a number.)

(d) Using the SAS / R output, test the hypothesis that the true slope of the regression line

is zero (as opposed to nonzero). State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses,

give the value of the test statistic and give the appropriate P-value. (Use significance

level of 0.05.) Explain what this means in terms of the relationship between the two

variables.

(e) Using SAS / R, find a 95% confidence interval for the mean basketball goal for

a player with a height of 77 inches. In addition find a 95% prediction interval for

basketball goal for a player with a height of 77 inches.

Data:

Power

What is power and why do we care about it?

What is the difference between a type I and type II error? Which is worse?

How does alpha relate to power?

What are the factors that influence power? What’s the best way to increase the power of your test/study?

What is effect size?

One-way ANOVA

There are two sources of variation. What are they? Why do we care about them?

Why do we use ANOVA? In other words, why don’t we just use t-tests?

What are post hoc tests and why do we care about them?

What’s the distinction between a between subjects/groups ANOVA vs. within subjects/groups ANOVA?

What are the assumptions of ANOVA?

In addition to cash contributions to charity, Dean decided to donate shares of stock and a portrait painted during the earlier part of the last century. Dean purchased the stock and the portrait many years ago as investments. Dean reported the following recipients:

c. Suppose Dean is a dealer in antique paintings and had held the painting for sale before the contribution. What is Dean's charitable contribution deduction for the painting in this situation (ignoring AGI limitations)?
