(Requires calculus) Let patents be the number of patents applied for by a firm during a given year. Assume that the conditional expectation of patents given sales and RD is E(patents|sales,RD) = exp[ 0 + 1log(sales) + ( 2RD + 3RD2],
where sales is annual firm sales and RD is total spending on research and development over the past 10 years.
