Given a sample of n observations the investigator estimates


An investigator correctly believes that the relationship between two variables X and Y is given by
Yi = β1 + β2Xi + ui,

Given a sample of n observations, the investigator estimates β2 by calculating it as the average value of Y divided by the average value of X. Discuss the properties of this estimator. What difference would it make if it could be assumed that β1 is equal to 0?
