This exercise is based onEmpirical Exercise 5.1that examines the relationship between a worker's age and earnings. Instead of the full dataset, you will analyze a subset of 500 individuals that you can download atthis link. Open the file in Excel and estimate the following linear regression model:
AHE = beta0 + beta1 * AGE + error
where AHE and AGE refer to the (average hourly) earnings and age of an individual (and there are 500 individuals in your sample). The unit of AHE is dollars per hour and the unit of AGE is years. Answer the following questions:
Calculate the test statistic for the null hypothesisH0: beta1 = 0against the alternativeH1: beta1 not= 0: t =
Is AGE statistically significant at 10%? (type YES or NO) at 5%? and 1%?
What is the p-value associated with the coefficient's t-statistic? (if the pvalue is smaller than 0.01 type 0.00)
Construct a 90% confidence interval for the slope coefficient of AGE: (,)
It can be argued that AGE should have a positive effect on earnings (more experience?). Test this hypothesis by performing a one-sided test thatH0: beta1 <= 0againstH1: beta1 > 0. The t-statistic in this case is and the 1% critical value is so that the conclusion for the null hypothesis H0 is (type REJECT or DO NOT REJECT) .
