Question

This dataset continues our saga of modeling the price of this popular Honda automobile. The dataset has now been cleaned to remove the columns with the dealership where the car was offered for sale and specific trim.

(a) write out your model in econometric notation. Be very precise! 

(b) using the 93 observations in the dataset, estimate a model where price is a function of age, mileage and trim of the car. Be sure to avoid the dummy variable trap!! Fully report the results of your model. In this case, interpretation of the coefficients on the dummy variables is particularly important. 

(c) test the hypothesis that the specific trim does not affect the price of a Civic. Be sure to do all parts of the hypothesis test.
