(1.5)Solution: What happened in regressions 7 and 9 was that I removed ‘LOAD’ and added the interaction variable ‘1YRTL.’ While ‘LOAD’ never had a significant coefficient, all the coefficients now are significant.a) Why was I willing to accept a lower value of R-squared than in regression 8? (1)Solution: R-squared adjusted actually rose.b) Lets check out the effect of the signs of the coefficients? To start with we have what are essentially two equations here because of the interaction variables. What are they? (2)The regression equation isFor a Firm with no load ‘1YRTL’ and ‘AssetsL’ are zero so the equation reads as below.The regression equation isFor a firm with a load, we can add the coefficient of ‘1YRTL’ to the coefficient of ‘1YRT’ and add the coefficient of ‘AssetsL’ to the coefficient of ‘ASSETS.’The regression equation isWe have ‘1YRT’ = 58.2, ‘1YRTsq’ = 3387.24, ‘ASSETS’ = 247.01 and ‘Asstsq’ = 61013.94For a no-load firmFor a firm with a load= 162.54 – 158.43 + 65.42 – 179.32 + 115.26 = 5.47Minitab gets 5.54d) So how do rises of 10 in 1-year turnover and 10 in Assets affect these firms? You need four answers here. (4)After a rise of 10 in ‘1YRT’ we have ‘1YRT’ = 68.2, ‘1YRTsq’ = 4651.24, ‘ASSETS’ = 247.01 and ‘Asstsq’ = 61013.94For a no-load firmFor a firm with a loadAfter a rise of 10 in ‘ASSETS,’ we have ‘1YRT’ = 58.2, ‘1YRTsq’ = 3387.24, ‘ASSETS’ = 257.01 and ‘Asstsq’ = 66054.14For a no-load firmFor a firm with a loade) So, in view of d) are there any coefficients here that don’t seem reasonable?

(18+ points) Do all the following. Note that answers without reasons and citation of appropriate statistical tests receive no credit. Most answers require a statistical test, that is, stating or implying a hypothesis and showing why it is true or false by citing a table value or a p-value. If you haven’t done it lately, take a fast look at ECO 252 - Things That You Should Never Do on a Statistics Exam (or AnywhereElse) In his text Allen L. Webster presents the following data. The hope was to explain three year returns of the funds and to compare them to one year returns. The data given is as follows.MTB > print c1 c2 c3 c4 c5 c6Data Display Row 3YRR 1YRR LOAD 3YRT 1YRT ASSETS 1 5.6 0.1 0 112 58 220.00 2 4.7 1.9 1 95 62 158.00 3 4.5 2.6 1 241 65 227.25 4 4.8 2.0 1 87 61 242.40 5 5.7 3.5 0 98 57 287.85 6 4.1 -4.3 1 102 66 207.05 7 4.7 3.2 1 72 63 237.35 8 4.1 -4.1 1 96 65 207.05 9 5.2 2.2 0 78 59 262.60 10 3.7 2.1 1 118 87 186.85 11 6.2 5.3 0 98 47 313.10 12 6.6 11.0 0 87 41 333.30 13 5.2 0.3 0 117 61 262.60 14 5.5 -2.1 0 87 46 277.75 15 5.6 4.7 0 85 35 282.00In the above, ‘1YRR’ is the rate of return over a 1-year period. ‘LOAD’ is a dummy variable that is 1 when there is a load and zero if it is a no-load fund. ‘1YRT’ is a turnover rate for the fund and tells you the percent of the fund bought or sold during the year, ‘ASSETS’ is the assets in $billions when the fund opened. The remaining columns are for 3-year data and are not used here. I played with these data for a while and got very discouraging results for the 3-rear data and nearly as discouraging results for the 1- year data as you will see in Regression 3 below. I finally created the set of new independent variables that appear below.
