Question
Personal wealth tends to increase with age as older individuals have had more opportunities
to earn and invest than younger individuals. The following data were obtained from a random
sample of eight individuals and records their total wealth (Y) and their current age (X).
Person Total wealth (‘000s of dollars)
Y
Age (Years)
X
A 280 36
B 450 72
C 250 48
D 320 51
E 470 80
F 250 40
 
G 330 55
H 430 72
 
A part of the output of a regression analysis of Y against X using Excel is given below:
SUMMARY OUTPUT            Regression Statistics     Multiple R 0.954704     R Square 0.91146     Adjusted R Square 0.896703     Standard Error 28.98954     Observations 8           ANOVA        df SS MS F Significance F Regression 1 51907.64 51907.64   Residual 6 5042.361 840.3936   Total 7 56950      
        Coefficients Standard Error t Stat P-value Intercept 45.2159 39.8049   Age 5.3265 0.6777       
 
a. State the estimated regression line and interpret the slope coefficient also explain  What is the estimated total personal wealth when a person is 50 years old?
  
(b) What is the value of the coefficient of determination? Interpret it. ALSO Test whether there is a significant relationship between wealth and age at the 10%
significance level. Perform the test using the following six steps.
Step 1. Statement of the hypotheses      
Step 2. Standardised test statistic       
Step 3. Level of significance        
Step 4. Decision Rule        
 Step 5. Calculation of test statistic      
Step 6. Conclusion
