LOS c: Calculate and interpret 1) a confidence interval for the population value of a regression coefficient and 2) a predicted value for the dependent variable, given an estimated regression model and assumed values for the independent variables.

 

 

Consider the following estimated regression equation, with standard errors of the coefficients as indicated:

Salesi = 10.0 + 1.25 R&Di + 1.0 ADVi ? 2.0 COMPi + 8.0 CAPi
where the standard error for R&D is 0.45, the standard error for ADV is 2.2, the standard error for COMP 0.63, and the standard error for CAP is 2.5.

Sales are in millions of dollars. An analyst is given the following predictions on the independent variables: R&D = 5, ADV = 4, COMP = 10, and CAP = 40.

The predicted level of sales is closest to:

A)
 $310.25 million.
B)
 $320.25 million.
C)
 $360.25 million.

 

Predicted sales = $10 + 1.25 (5) + 1.0 (4) ?2.0 (10) + 8 (40)
= 10 + 6.25 + 4 ? 20 + 320 = $320.25

Consider the following estimated regression equation, with calculated t-statistics of the estimates as indicated:

AUTOt = 10.0 + 1.25 PIt + 1.0 TEENt – 2.0 INSt

with a PI calculated t-statstic of 0.45, a TEEN calculated t-statstic of 2.2, and an INS calculated t-statstic of 0.63.

The equation was estimated over 40 companies. The predicted value of AUTO if PI is 4, TEEN is 0.30, and INS = 0.6 is closest to:

A)
 14.90.
B)
 17.50.
C)
 14.10.

Predicted AUTO = 10 + 1.25 (4) + 1.0 (0.30) – 2.0 (0.6)
= 10 + 5 + 0.3 – 1.2
= 14.10

Wanda Brunner, CFA, is trying to calculate a 95% confidence interval (df = 40) for a regression equation based on the following information:

Coefficient

Standard Error

Intercept

-10.60%

1.357

DR

0.52

0.023

CS

0.32

0.025

What are the lower and upper bounds for variable DR?

A)
 0.474 to 0.566.
B)
 0.481 to 0.559.
C)
 0.488 to 0.552.

The critical t-value is 2.02 at the 95% confidence level (two tailed test). The estimated slope coefficient is 0.52 and the standard error is 0.023. The 95% confidence interval is 0.52 ± (2.02)(0.023) = 0.52 ± (0.046) = 0.474 to 0.566.

B)
 0.260 to 0.381.
C)
 0.274 to 0.367.

The critical t-value is 2.42 at the 98% confidence level (two tailed test). The estimated slope coefficient is 0.32 and the standard error is 0.025. The 98% confidence interval is 0.32 ± (2.42)(0.025) = 0.32 ± (0.061) = 0.260 to 0.381.
