take-home essay #2
A hard copy of this essay is due in class on the date indicated in your syllabus.
Please put your full name, your section number, and “Essay #2” on the first page of your exam. Your answer should be approximately 3-4 pages in length. Your exam should be computer-printed in 14-point font, with no more than one-inch margins all around, double-spaced.
Write your answer as a teacher explaining these ideas to an imaginary class of students who have not heard this material before. You may study with other students while preparing this essay. Please be sure, however, that the answer you turn in is substantially your own, and not simply copies or paraphrases of someone else’s words. If you do work with anyone else, you must list their names on your essay.
Essay #2 Explain the definition of an externality given in class. Explain the specific type of externality that we have called “The Tragedy of the Commons.” (HINT: remember that, as we have discussed it, this type of externality is a problem in what economists call the theory of rational choice.) Explain the specific type of externality that we have called “Unpriced Natural Capital”. (HINT: be sure to ask yourself, what makes the situation as described in your reading an externality?)
Select one of these two types of externalities, and explain how a laissez-faire philosophy could best try to solve it. Do you think this solution will be successful in resolving the externality? Explain.

Assignment 7 Project Part 3 – Decomposition Forecast- Due midnight 2/24. Show your work and submit it to the Chapter 5 Assignment 7 Dropbox. a) Perform Time Series Decomposition on your project Y variable excluding the hold out period. Show me the smoothed Trend Values, Smoothed Cycle Values and Seasonal Indexes. — note that you can create your own cycle factors for the forecast period and apply them to a multiplicative Minitab result.
- b) Show the seasonal indices and develop a one year time series plot of them. Do they indicate strong seasonality? How can you tell?
- c) Evaluate the “Goodness to Fit” using RMSE and MAPE error measures .
- d) Evaluate the residuals for the “Fit” period by indicating the residual distribution (random or not). Use a fit period residual time series plot, residuals ACFs and a histogram to determine if the Fit period residuals are random. If the residuals are not random state if you detect any trend, cycle and seasonality.
- e) Develop a two year quarterly forecast (for the hold out period) using the time series decomposition model you evaluated in c) above.
- f) Evaluate the “Accuracy” of the forecast for the “hold out period” using the RMSE and MAPE measures used in part b) and comment them. Did the error measures increase, remain the same or decrease from the “Fit” to “Hold Out” or forecast period?
Show your work and graphs in a Word document. Make sure that you comment on statistics and graphs relevant to answering the above questions. This will be the decomposition portion of your class project. Be sure that you only submit one Word document in this assignment.
