International Trade and Its Impact on Growth
Description
The project is based on empirical analysis using econometric concepts in STATA.
There has to be a regression equation used with the dependent being “growth rate of GDP”. The independent variable data to be researched and used needs to include multiple countries and time periods (at least long enough to kill cyclic condition) and the variables all need to be independent variables related to the regression equation for example “Imports”, “Exports”, “GDP per capita”, “FDI”, “Tax on international trade”, “Human capital index”, “Government expenditure”, etc. All figures are to be calculated in USD.
Aside from the regression equations, OLS tests should also be conducted where possible.
The introduction should briefly talk about previously conducted research and how this paper differs from those (with the results/conclusion section referring back to how the results of the testing conducted here either falls in line with or differs from previous research).
The different sections to be included, in addition to the overall formatting aesthetic, can be found in the additional materials, with the main body section being broken up into standard research paper sections, ie Introduction Lit Review, Methodology, Results and Conclusion.
