MULTIPLE REGRESSION ANALYSISA motion picture industry analyst wants to estimate the gross earnings generated by a movie. The estimate will be based on different variables involved in the films production. The independent variables considered are X1 (COST) = production cost of the movie and X2 (PROM) = total costs of all promotional activities. A third variable that the analyst wants to consider is the qualitative variable of whether or not the movie is based on a book published before the release of the movie. This third qualitative variable is handled by the use of an indicator variable: X3 (BOOK) =1 if the movie is based on a book and 0 otherwise. The analyst obtains information on a random sample of 20 Hollywood movies made within the last five years. Data is give. The variable Y (EARN) is gross earnings, in millions of dollars. The two quantitative independent variables are also in millions of dollars. Data given as under:EARNCOSTPROMBOOK284.21035631505.561203.3107512.5111609.681152.50.504510.850508.431346.6204810.7118211151243.540506.9100587.8916310.110030511377.550456.4817210121 The applicable general regression model as given in the question is as under:Predicted EARNings = a + b1*COST + b2*PROM + b3*BOOK + error term As per the data fitted regression line is given as follows:Y Hat (EARN) = 7.8362+ 2.8477 * COST + 2.2782 * PROM + 7.1661 * BOOK + 3.6895 Please answer the following:a) How useful is the model overall?b) Are all three independent variables relevant?c) What gross earning does the model predict for a movie costing nothing to produce or promote, and that is not based on a book? How meaningful is this figure?d) Explain the meaning of the estimate b1=2.85?e) Can you reject the hypothesis that the underlying value of b1 =1?f) What would this hypothesis imply?g) Compare the estimated gross earnings of a movie costing $6m, with promotion cost of $3m based on a book, to that of a movie with identical costs, but not based on a book. Explain the meaning of b3? h) An authors association claims that the existence of a book increases gross earnings on average by at least $7.5m. Can you reject this hypothesis?
