The Pilot Pen Company has decided to use 15 test markets to
examine the sensitivity of demand for its new product to various
prices, as shown in the following table. Advertising effort was

level of business activity and population.
Complete the following worksheet and then estimate the demand
function for Pilot's new pen using a linear regression model.

What is the estimate of the standard deviation of the estimated
slope (sb)?
0.025
1.896
0.030
Can you reject the hypothesis (at the 0.05 level of
significance) that there is no relationship (i.e., β=0β=0)
between the price and quantity variables?
(Hint: t0.025,13=2.16t0.025,13=2.16)
