Included were the percent changes in gross domestic product (GDP), industrial production (IP), consumer prices (CP), and producer prices (PP) from Fall 2000 to Fall 2001, and the unemployment rate in Fall 2001 (UNEMP). An economist wants to construct a model to predict GDP from the other variables. A fit of the model GDP = , + P,IP + 0,UNEMP + f,CP + P,PP + € yields the following output: The regression equation is GDP = 1.19 + 0.17 IP + 0.18 UNEMP + 0.18 CP – 0.18 PP Predictor Coef SE Coef тР Constant 1.18957 0.42180 2.82 0.018 IP 0.17326 0.041962 4.13 0.002 UNEMP 0.17918 0.045895 3.90 0.003 CP 0.17591 0.11365 1.55 0.153 PP -0.18393 0.068808 -2.67 0.023 Predict the percent change in GDP for a country with IP = 0.5, UNEMP = 5.7, CP = 3.0, and PP = 4.1. a. b.
