Your company just became international by offering its products in both the United States and Canada. Experts in your analytics department believe that tastes for your product differ in those two countries, and have carefully collected data on prices and quantity demanded in both countries. They then present you with the results of two regressions, one for each country, as follows: Log Price regressed on Log Quantity (United States): Standard Coefficients Error t Stat P-value Lower 95% Upper 95 % 1.67605E- Intercept 52.75573994 10.81051303 4.88040363 31.48708283 74.0239705 06 | Log Quantity -5.382266173 1.170584108 -4.597932039 6.15253E-06 -7.685279168 -3.079253177 Log Price regressed on Log Quantity (Canada): Standard Error Coefficients 22.8707593 10.64507785 -2.095788278 | 1.152727409 -1.818112644 0.069981782 t Stat 2.148482109 Upper 95% 43.8139384 P-value Lower 95% Intercept Log Quantity 0.032425603 1.9275802 -4.363669916 0.17209336 Assume you have adequate statistical significance…

"Why can’t I just test the individual coefficients one at a time"? is this approach is unreliable?
Suppose we have sample data on (y,x) of size n. Consider regressing y on x and a constant using the least square method (OLS estimation). The estimated equation is y = 2.59 +5.19 x + e where e is the residual. The standard errors for the constant and the coefficient were 0.51 and 1.58 respectively. To test the null hypothesis of zero coefficient (for x) at a given significance level, we may use t-statistic. Compute the t-statistic for the coefficient. Make sure the answer is round up to the nearest hundredth. e.g. 3.015 --> 3.02
