Firms and Patents (continued): You are interested in whether or not the typical firm in the United States is awarded a patent in a given year. Let the random variable X = 1 if the firm receives a patent and 0 if the firm does not receive a patent. For a random sample of n firms, we model as i.i.d. draws of X~Bernoulli(). Question: As the sample size n grows large, what value does the sample variance approach if the true value of is `x`? (Do the necessary calculations by hand, and provide the exact answer as a decimal.)

Firms and Patents (continued): You are interested in whether or not the typical firm in the United States is awarded a patent in a given year. Let the random variable X = 1 if the firm receives a patent and 0 if the firm does not receive a patent. For a random sample of n firms, we model as i.i.d. draws of X~Bernoulli(). Question: Back to the case of 100 observations (n=100), if you instead observed a higher sample of proportion (say 25%) of the firms were awarded patents, how does the standard error of the estimate (0.25) of compare to the original standard error (when the estimate of was lower than 0.25)?
