Instruction 12-12
The manager of the purchasing department of a large savings and loan organization would like to develop a model to predict the amount of time (measured in hours)it takes to record a loan application.Data are collected from a sample of 30 days,and the number of applications recorded and completion time in hours is recorded.Below is the regression output:
$\begin{array}{lr}\hline {\text { Regression Statistics }} \\\hline \text { Multiple R } & 0.9447 \\\text { R Square } & 0.8924 \\\text { Adjusted R } & 0.8886 \\\text { Square } & \\\text { Standard } & 0.3342 \\\text { Error } & \\\text { Observations } & 30 \\\hline\end{array}$
ANOVA
$\begin{array}{lrrrrr} & d f & {\text { SS }} & \text { MS } & F & \text { Significance F } \\\hline \text { Regression } & 1 & 25.9438 & 25.9438 & 232.2200 & 4.3946 \mathrm{E}-15 \\\text { Residual } & 28 & 3.1282 & 0.1117 & & \\\text { Total } & 29 & 29.072 & & &\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l}\begin{array}{lrrrrrr} & \text { Coefficients } & \begin{array}{c}\text { Standard } \\\text { Error }\end{array} & t \text { Stat } & \text { P-value } & \text { Lower 95\% } & \text { Upper 95\% } \\\hline \text { Intercept } & 0.4024 & 0.1236 & 3.2559 & 0.0030 & 0.1492 & 0.6555 \\\text { Applications } & 0.0126 & 0.0008 & 15.2388 & 4.3946 \mathrm{E}-15 & 0.0109 & 0.0143\end{array}\\\text { Recorded }\end{array}$ Note: 4.3946E-15 is 4.3946 x 10^-15.

-Referring to Instruction 12-12,there is no evidence of positive autocorrelation if the Durbin-Watson test statistic is found to be 1.78.
