PART I. SIMPLE REGRESSION ANALYSIS
(a) Statement of estimated equation
The result of regression based on KaddStat analysis as shown in the following Table 1.1 and the equation for the relation between consumption of durable goods and disposable personal income as follow:
Estimated regression equation:
The dependent variable (Y) durable goods component of personal consumption expenditure measured in billion dollar since expenditure depends on disposable personal income.
(b) Interpretation of coefficient
Coefficient 0.2323 says that when disposable personal income (X) increases by 1 billion dollar, the personal consumption expenditure is expected to go up 0.2323 billion dollars (232.3 million dollars).
(c) Comment on the significance of the model
Determining the existence of significant relationship between two variables, two tailed t test was conducted. To test for the slope of using t test with level of significance is 5%. Assumptions for the slope are as follows:
Hypotheses:
Decision rule: Reject if
Test statistic: From the Table 1.1, tcalc=60.3708
Decision:
