Question

for this sample regression function, i need to critique the performance(this is for durable goods), this includes using signs, magnitudes, coefficient of variaiton

y is real personal consumption expenditures, i is real disposable personal income, px is personal consumption expenditures:durable goods:chain-type price index, py is personal consumption expenditures: nondurable goods:chain price index, expect is the university of michigan consumer sentiment, debt is the total consumer credit outstanding, real debt is debt/gdpdef(gross domestic product:implicit price deflator)*100, r is the 3 year treasury constant maturity rate. These are all on FRED (http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/)

Explanation / Answer

Ho: model is not significant

H1: model is significant

With F= 716.44 and p-value < 0.05, I reject ho and conclude that model is significant

Ho; beta_i is not significant

H1: beta_i is significant

if p-value <0.5, i reject ho at 5% level of significane.
