spreadsheet model. Major spreadsheet packages come with a built-in optimization tool called Solver. Now we demonstrate how to use Excel spreadsheet modeling and Solver to find the optimal solution of optimization problems. If the model has two variables‚ the graphical method can be used to solve the model. Very few real world problems involve only two variables. For problems with more than two variables‚ we need to use complex techniques and tedious calculations to find the optimal solution. The spreadsheet

The linear probability model‚ ctd. When Y is binary‚ the linear regression model Yi = β0 + β1Xi + ui is called the linear probability model. • The predicted value is a probability: • E(Y|X=x) = Pr(Y=1|X=x) = prob. that Y = 1 given x • Yˆ = the predicted probability that Yi = 1‚ given X • β1 = change in probability that Y = 1 for a given ∆x: Pr(Y = 1 | X = x + ∆x ) − Pr(Y = 1 | X = x ) β1 = ∆x 5 Example: linear probability model‚ HMDA data Mortgage denial v. ratio of debt payments to income (P/I

Linear Approaches Linear Approach is also known as the managerial approach because all the models that fall under this approach describe changes from the vision until the implementation stage. It is considered the simplest of all the traditional models in the theories of change. According to Stacey (1996) managing a change under any circumstances whether planned or unplanned is complex with many starts and stops throughout the complete process. This conclusion has been come to under the assumptions
