Q.73 An analyst believes that the future 15-year real earnings of the S&P 500 are a function of the trailing dividend payout ratio of the stocks in the index (DB) and the yield curve slope (YC). She collects data and obtains the following multiple regression results:
| Coefficient | Standard Error | |
|---|---|---|
| Intercept | −10.8% | 1.567% |
| DB | 0.27 | 0.029 |
| YC | 0.12 | 0.210 |
Calculate the 95% confidence interval for the estimated coefficient for the independent variable DB. (Number of observations = 43)
A
(0.27, 0.3286).
B
(0.2, 0.3).
C
(0.2114, 2.0).
D
(0.2114, 0.3286).
