Question

You must use Excel to perform the regression analysis. Provide the answers under the space provided for each question. You must provide the Excel output for the question along with the answers. Round off the values on the output to three-five decimal places if appropriate.Conduct a simple linear regression analysis for each independent variable associated with the external factors, using house price as the dependent variable. Make sure to use the indicator variables for the categorical data. (Significance level of α = 0.05). For each regression:

22) Report the p-value of the independent variable and indicate whether it is a significant predictor of house price (based on the p-value being less than 0.05). (4p)

23) Report the explained variability (R-squared value) for each variable, whether it is significant based on the p-value. (4p)

24) Identify and list any variables that are not significant predictors of house price (i.e., those with p-values greater than 0.05). (2p)

Conduct a multiple regression analysis using significant external factors, such as Crime Rate and Property Tax Rate to predict house price. 

25) Make sure to report the Excel output below for full credit: (2p)

26) Report the p-values for each external factor to assess their significance as predictors of house price. (3p)

27) Interpret the coefficients for each significant variable to understand the direction and strength of its relationship with house price. (3p)

28) Evaluate the overall model fit (e.g., R-squared value) to determine how well these external factors explain the variability in house price. Is the overall model statistically significant at .05 level of significance? (3p)

29) Write the multiple regression equation by substituting each coefficient and significant external factor as independent variables into the model. Then, use this equation to make a prediction for house price based on the following values for the external factors: Crime Rate:1, Property Tax Rate: 2.5. (3p)

Areas with high school quality and low crime rates may have a compounded positive effect on house prices, as these factors together often signify desirable neighborhoods.

Examine the interaction effect between School Quality and Crime Rate on house price in a multiple regression model.

Include an interaction term for School Quality × Crime Rate in the regression model, along with the individual terms for School Quality and Crime Rate. 

30) Make sure to report the Excel output below for full credit: (2p) 

31) Analyze the p-value of the interaction term to determine if the interaction significantly contributes to predicting house price. Use the significance level 10 %, (α = .10) (3p)

32) Interpret the coefficient of the interaction term to understand how high school quality and low crime rates may have a compounded positive effect on house prices. (3p)

33) Write the multiple regression equation by substituting each coefficient, independent variable, and the interaction term between School Rating and Crime Rate. Then, use this equation to predict the price of a home with a School Rating of 10 and a Crime Rate of 1. (3p)
