21. The estimation of a Cobb-Douglas production function for 20 firms of a given industry
yields:
4. 16.907+0.322k; +2.777li
R2 = 0.915 DW = 2.032 RSS = 0.461 Use α = 5%
4.939971
Var ẞ=0.216639
0.031857
-0.857446 -0.057229 0.166070/
where fitted values of naturals logarithms of output (output express in 1000 tons);
ki: natural logarithms of capital output (output express in 1000 tons)
l: natural logarithms of labour (labour is in hours)
RSS: residual sum of squares
1: firm index
Var ẞ: variance-covariance matrix of estimates
Evaluate the statistical significance of the coefficients.
