Consider the model Y Æ X0¯Åe with E[e j Z] Æ 0 with Y scalar and X and Z each a k vector. You have a randomsample (Yi ,Xi ,Zi : i Æ 1, ...,n).
(a) Assume that X is exogenous in the sense that E[e j Z,X] Æ 0. Is the IV estimator b¯iv unbiased?
(b) Continuing to assume that X is exogenous, find the conditional covariance matrix var
