1. A model regressing consumption (C) on income (I) and wealth (W) yielded the following results. All variables are measured in thousands of dollars.

R2 = 0.86 R2 = 0.79 calc F = 17.42 n = 25

C = 402 + 0.83 I + 0.71 W

(0.71) (6.21) (5.47)

where the t-values are shown in parentheses.

a. What is the meaning of the intercept term?

b. Are the coefficients significant at the 5 percent level?

c. Is the overall model significant at the 10 percent level?

d. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the population regression coefficient linking wealth and consumption.

Consider the following model of aggregate demand and supply. Consumption depends positively on disposable income with a marginal propensity to consume between 0 and 1, investment depends negatively on the real interest rate, and labour supply depends positively on the real wage. The real interest rate is the nominal interest rate minus the rate of inflation. Prices are flexible, and firms hire labour up to the point where the marginal product of labour is equal to the real wage. Monetary...
