Refrigerator prices are affected by characteristics such as whether or not the refrigerator is on sale, whether or not it is listed as a Sub-Zero brand, the number of doors (one door or two doors), and the placement of the freezer compartment (top, side, or bottom). The table below shows the regression output from a regression model using the natural log of price as the dependent variable. The model was developed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Variable	Coefficient		Standard Error	t Statistic
Intercept		5.7200	0.12131		47.15
Sale price		−0.0751	0.0259		−2.90
Sub-Zero brand		1.0212	0.1446		7.06
Total capacity (in cubic ft)		0.06128	0.00617		9.94
Two-door, freezer on bottom		0.04045	0.07418		0.55
Two-door, side freezer		Base
Two-door, freezer on top		−0.4420	0.03712		−11.91
One door with freezer		−0.7585	0.1314		−5.77
One door, no freezer		−0.8598	0.1347		−6.38

(b) Find the p-value for each coefficient, using 310 degrees of freedom. Using an α = .01, which predictor variable(s) are not significant predictors? (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Round your answers to 4 decimal places.)
