Determine the amount of the money, Econometrics

Assignment Help:

You are gambling. There is a white urn in front of you, which contains a total of 100 black and white balls. You are blindfolded, get to pick one ball randomly, and see which color you picked. If your ball is black, your X1 is 0. If your ball is white, your X1 is 1. Once your X1 is determined, you proceed to the second level. In the second level, there are two urns: red and blue. In each urn are there 100 black and white balls again but at different ratios. If your X1 is 0, you will pick a ball from the red urn and if your X1 is 1 you will pick a ball from the blue urn. If your ball in the second level is white, your X2 is 1. If it is black, your X2 is 0.

In each urn are there 100 balls. Out of 100 balls: 100  p are white in the white urn: 100  q are white in the red urn: 100  r are white in the blue urn, for p, q, r ∈ 2499_Econometrics.png

There are two types of gambles. The first type (G1) is you get $M1 X # of white balls you picked. The second type(G2) is you get $M2 if you picked a white ball from the first level and $M3 if you picked a white ball from the second level. You need to pay $C1 to do the first type and $C2 to do the second type. Let Y1 be the net amount of the money you will earn if you do the G1 and Y2 be the net amount of money you will earn if you do the G2.

(a) Let X =1430_Econometrics1.png. What is Supp (X)? For x = 1430_Econometrics1.png ∈ Supp (X), let fX (x) = Pr [X = x] and FX (x) = Pr [X1 ≤ x1;X2 ≤ x2]. Write down fX (x) and FX (x) for all x ∈ Supp (X).

(b) It is possible to write E [X2]X1 = x] = β0 + β 1x. Write β0 and β 1 with respect to p, q, and/or r:

(c) Let Y = 822_Econometrics2.png. The Y can be written as Y = AX + b for a A ∈ R2x2 and a b ∈ R2. What are A and b? Let E [X] = μX ∈ R2 and V [X] = X ∈ R2x2 . Write E [Y ] and V [X] with respect to μx , ∑ , A, and b.
