UT 5 LIICK nere for the Excel Data File a-1. Estimate: Return = B@ + B1PE + B2PS + E. (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) 20 points Predicted Return = PE + PS eBook Reference a-2. Are the signs on the coefficients as expected? Yes No b. Interpret the slope coefficient of the PS ratio. As the PS ratio increases by 1 unit, the predicted return of the firm increases by 3.37%, holding PE constant. As the PS ratio increases by 1 unit, the predicted return of the firm decreases by 4.39%, holding PE constant. As the PS ratio increases by 1 unit, the predicted return the firm decreases by 3.37%, holding PE constant. As the PS ratio decreases by 1 unit, the predicted return of the firm decreases by 5.37%, holding PE constant. c. What is the predicted return for a firm with a PE ratio of 10 and a PS ratio of 2? (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round final answer to 2 decimal places.) Predicted Return d. What is the standard error of the estimate? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Standard error e. Interpret R2 40.08% of the sample variation in y is explained by the sample regression equation. 40.08% of the sample variation in x is explained by the sample regression equation. 63.31% of the sample variation in x is explained by the sample regression equation. 35.65% of the sample variation in y is explained by the sample regression equation.
