Decreasing the revenue raises the net income. O Increasing the revenue lowers the net income. million. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) O The intercept is not meaningful because a firm cannot have net income when revenue is zero. The intercept is meaningful because a firm can have net income when revenue is zero. If Revenue = 24,574, then NetIncome = million. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Suppose you are told that the true value of BF (coefficient on fertilizer intensity) is known to be 0.20. Does this show that the estimate is biased? Why or why not? Suppose you were told that the equation does not meet all the classical assumptions and, therefore, the OLS estimator used is not BLUE. Does this mean that the true BR (coefficient on rainfall) is definitely not equal to 5.33? Why or why not?As an auto insurance risk analyst, it is your job to research risk profiles for various types of drivers. One common area of concern for auto insurance companies is the risk involved when offering policies to younger, less experienced drivers. The U.S. Department of Transportation recently conducted a study in which it analyzed the relationship between 1) the number of fatal accidents per 1000 licenses, and 2) the percentage of licensed drivers under the age of 21 in a sample of 42 cities. Your first step in the analysis is to construct a scatterplot of the data. FIGURE.

- All questions utilize the multivariate demand function for Smooth Sailing sailboats in C6 on text page 83. Compute to three decimal places. Initial values are: PX = $9500 PY = $10000 I = $15000 A = $170000 W = 160 This function is: Qs = 89830 -40PS +20PX +15PY +2I +.001A +10W 1.(a). Use the above to calculate the arc price elasticity of demand between PS = $9000 decreasing to PS = $8000. The arc elasticity formula is: 1.(b). Judging from the computation in (a), do you expect the revenue resulting from the decrease in Ps to $8000 to increase, remain the same, or decrease relative to the revenue at Ps = $9000. (Hint: see the table on page 65 of Truett). Explain your choice. 1.(c). Calculate the point elasticity of demand for Smooth Sailing sailboats at PS = $9000 (which should make Qs = 101600). The formula is: 1.(d). Does this elasticity value indicate that Smooth Sailing demand is relatively responsive to changes in the price of these sailboats?
