Consider the following regression model estimated using the OLS method.
$\text{BR}_i = 260.621 - 0.015\text{PCGDP}_i - 0.252\text{FLR}_i - 0.755\text{CD}_i$
$\text{Std. Error: } (15.595) \quad (0.002) \quad (0.015) \quad (0.035)$
$N = 75 \text{ and } R^2 = 0.728$
BR is birth rate measured as the number of live births per 1 lakh population. PCGDP represents per capita
GDP (an indicator of economic development) measured in rupees. FLR denotes female literacy rate measured
in percent and CD (country dummy) is a categorical variable, CD = 0 if the country is a developing country
and CD = 1 if the country is a developed country. The sample consists of 64 countries and the data are for the
year 2022.
i. Explain the regression results.
[2 marks]
ii. Perform the hypothesis testing to examine whether PCGDP, FLR and CD have statistically
significant impact on BR. Also, mention the level of significance (<1\%, <5\% or <10\%)?
