Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 73CR
This exercise requires the use of a statistical software package. The article “Entry and Profitability in a Rate-Free Savings and Loan Market” (Quarterly Review of Economics and Business [1978]: 87–95) gave the accompanying data on y = Profit margin of savings and loan companies in a given year, x1 = Net revenues in that year, and x2 = Number of savings and loan branch offices.
- a. Fit a multiple regression model using both independent variables.
- b. Use the F test to determine whether the model provides useful information for predicting profit margin.
- c. Interpret the values of R2 and se.
- d. Would a regression model using a single independent variable (x1 alone or x2 alone) have sufficed? Explain.
- e. Plot the (x1, x2) pairs. Does the plot indicate any sample observation that may have been highly influential in estimating the model coefficients? Explain. Do you see any evidence of multicollinearity? Explain.

a) Give a practical interpretation of the y-intercept of the regression line. b) What is the best-predicted value for the median hourly wage gain for the fifteenth year of schooling? c) The actual wage gain for the fifteenth year of schooling was 14%. How close was the predicted wage gain present to the actual value, i.e. what is the residual?
The November 24, 2001, issue of The Economist published economic data for 15
industrialized nations. Included were the percent changes in gross domestic product (GDP),
industrial production (IP), consumer prices (CP), and producer prices (PP) from Fall 2000
to Fall 2001, and the unemployment rate in Fall 2001 (UNEMP). An economist wants to
construct a model to predict GDP from the other variables. A fit of the model
GDP = , + P,IP + 0,UNEMP + f,CP + P,PP + €
yields the following output:
The regression equation is
GDP = 1.19 + 0.17 IP + 0.18 UNEMP + 0.18 CP – 0.18 PP
