Suppose demand for a product is determined by its price


Suppose demand for a product is determined by its price, consumers' income, and the price of a related good. Use Q for demand, P for price, M for income, and PR for price of related good.  The demand function is estimated using regression analysis.  The results are reported below:

  • What is the of this regression?
  • What are the degrees of freedom of this regression?
  • What is the effect of a one-dollar increase in price (P) on demand (Q)?
  • What is the effect of a one-dollar increase in income (M) on demand (Q)?
  • What is the effect of a one-dollar increase in price of related good (PR) on demand (Q)?
  • Calculate the t Stat (or t ratio marked with "???" in the table) for the coefficient on P?
  • Test whether the effect of P on Q is significant at the 5% significance level. Show your work.
  • Using the p-value 0.046 in the table, test if the effect of M on Q is significant at the 5% significance level.
  • Using the values, ,000, and , predict the demand (Q)?
  • Using the value of predicted Q you just calculated for part 9), calculate the estimates of
