Executive Summary and Technical Appendix

7

I. Your report should have an executive summary of one to one

and a half pages that summarizes your findings in words for a non-

technical reader. It should explain the problem being examined

from an economic perspective, i.e. it should motivate interest in the

issue on the part of the reader. Your report should explain how you

are investigating the issue, in simple language. It should explain

why you are approaching the problem in this particular fashion.

Your executive report should explain the economic importance of

your findings.

The technical details of your findings you can attach as an

appendix.

• Descriptive Statistics and Histograms for the variables in the study

• If time series data, a plot of each variable against time

• If relevant, plot of the dependent Vs. each of the explanatory variables

9

Technical Appendix (Cont.)

• Statistical Results, for example regression

• Plot of the actual, fitted and error and other diagnostics

• Brief summary of the conclusions, meanings drawn from the exploratory, descriptive, and statistical analysis.

Slide Show

• Challenger disaster

11

Challenger Disaster• Failure of O-rings that sealed grooves on

the booster rockets

• Was there any relationship between o-ring failure and temperature?

• Engineers knew that the rubber o-rings hardened and were less flexible at low temperatures

• But was ther launch dat that showed a problem

12

Challenger Disaster

• What: Was ther a relationship between launch temperature and o-ring failure prior to the Challenger disaster?

• Why: Should the launch have proceeded?

• How: Analyze the relationship between launch temperature and o-ring failure

13

Launches Before Challenger

• Data– number of o-rings that failed– launch temperature

Anova and Regression: One-Way

• Salesaj = c(1)*convenience+c(2)*quality+c(3)*price+ e

• E[salesaj/(convenience=1, quality=0, price=0)] =c(1) = mean for city(1)– c(1) = mean for city(1) (convenience)– c(2) = mean for city(2) (quality)– c(3) = mean for city(3) (price)– Test the null hypothesis that the means are equal

using a Wald test: c(1) = c(2) = c(3)

Anova and Regression: One-WayAlternative Specification

• Salesaj = c(1) + c(2)*convenience+c(3)*quality+e

• E[Salesaj/(convenience=0, quality=0)] = c(1) = mean for city(3) (price, the omitted one)

• E[Salesaj/(convenience=1, quality=0)] = c(1) + c(2) = mean for city(1) (convenience)– c(1) = mean for city(3), the omitted city– c(2) = mean for city(1) minus mean for city(3)– Test that the mean for city(1) = mean for city(3)– Using the t-statistic for c(2)

25

Anova and Regression: One-WayAlternative Specification

• Salesaj = c(1) + c(2)*convenience+c(3)*price+e

• E[Salesaj/(convenience=0, price=0)] = c(1) = mean for city(2) (quality, the omitted one)

• E[Salesaj/(convenience=1, price=0)] = c(1) + c(2) = mean for city(1) (convenience)– c(1) = mean for city(2), the omitted city– c(2) = mean for city(1) minus mean for city(2)– Test that the mean for city(1) = mean for city(2)– Using the t-statistic for c(2)

quality + c(4)*television + c(5)*convenience*television + c(6)*quality*television + e, SSR=501,136.7

• Salesaj = c(1) + c(2)*convenience + c(3)* quality + c(4)*television + e, SSR=502,746.3

• Test for interaction effect: F2, 54 = [(502746.3-501136.7)/2]/(501136.7/54) = (1609.6/2)/9280.3 = 0.09

Rank Sum, T• E (T )= n1 (n1 + n2 + 1)/2 = 15*31/2 = 232.5

• VAR (T) = n1 * n2 (n1 + n2 + 1)/12

• VAR (T) = 15*31/12 , T = 24.1

• For sample sizes larger than 10, T is normal

• Z = [T-E(T)]/ T = (276.5 - 232.5)/24.1 = 1.83

• Null Hypothesis is that the central tendency for the two drugs is the same

• Alternative hypothesis: central tendency for the new drug is greater than for aspirin: 1-tailed test
