Introductory Econometrics (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book represents a first course in econometrics, assuming only some knowledge of elementary probability theory and statistics on the part of the student. Its rigorous and comprehensive discussion concentrates on the general linear model, treating the standard case as well as the consequences resulting from violation of the underlying assumptions.
