ion The consumption function, initially developed by John Maynard Keynes, is a fundamental concept in economics that describes the relationship between consumption and disposable income. Disposable income is defined as the income available to individuals after taxes have been deducted. The consumption.xlsx data file provides quarterly data on U.S. consumption and disposable income (measured in dollars) for the period from 2000 to 2019. 1. Find the estimated regression equation for the model: Consumption = bo + b₁ x Income × e Consumption=b0+b1×Incomexe 2. In this model, the slope coefficient b1 is known as the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Interpret its meaning. 3. Construct and interpret the 95% confidence interval for the mean consumption when the disposable income is $15,000.
