问题如下:
The following exhibit is the results of a regressionof the monthly return for an electric utility equity index for the previous 203months (the dependent variable) against the monthly returns for the S&P 500Index and the difference between the monthly returns on long-term U.S.government bonds and one-month U.S. Treasury bills (SPREAD) (the twoindependent variables).
Hamilton wants to test the null hypothesis that thecoefficient on SPREAD is equal to 1 against the alternative hypothesis that itis not equal to 1. Based on the results in Exhibit 1, the value of the teststatistic relating to Hamilton’s null hypothesis about the value of the coefficienton SPREAD is closest to:
选项:
A.
4.28
B.
0.24
C.
0.11
解释:
The null hypothesis is H0: bspread= 1.
The calculated value of the t-statistic is t = (1.0264 – 1.0)/standarderror.
The standard error is 1.0264/4.28 = 0.24.
The calculated value for t= (1.0264 – 1.0)/0.24 = 0.11.
standard error的计算不明白,为什么是1.00264/4.28?为什么不是standard error=(1.00264-1)/t-statistic?我看了其他的回答,说standard error=1.00264/4.28默认b1=0,可是H0是假设b1=1的,为什么又会b1=0? 另外我读题有点没读明白,题目里的表格已经给了一个t-statistic,又叫我们算t-statisic是什么意思?
