Assume that the following relationship holds:
Maintenance Costs = (v * Machine Hours) + f
REQUIRED
Estimate the values of v and f and the cost equation, using,
1. the High-Low Method, and
Make sure to report
1. The values of v and f;
2. A scatter plot of the data points, and
3. The adjusted R-square; explain what the adjusted R-square means.
4. The cost equation in the form of Y = vx + f, substituting the values for v and f from the regression output.
