Part A
In this, the non-linear equation is given so, we have to convert it in a linear form. If the model is
Power Function, then we have to taken the log on both sides to convert it into linear function.

That is, Log Y = Log b1 + b2 log X1 + b3 Log X3 + b4 log X4 + b5 log X4

Part B
In this the transformed regression is

Y = 2.432 + 0.346 X1 – 0.588 X2 + 0.340 X3 – 0.453 X4 + 0.365 X5

If the REAL_DISPOSABLE_INCOME_PER_CAPITA__X2_ goes up by 1 unit on an average, then


Per Capita Consumption of Atta lb (Y) would do up by 0.34 unit provided other independent variables
are constant.

If the REAL_RETAIL_PRICE_OF_ATTA_PER_LB__X3_ goes up by 1 unit on an average, then Per


Capita Consumption of Atta lb (Y) would do down by 0.588 unit provided other independent
variables are constant.

If the RETAIL_PRICE_OF_MILLET_PER_LB__X5_ goes up by 1 unit on an average, then Per


Capita Consumption of Atta lb (Y) would do up by 0.34 unit provided other independent variables are
constant.
If the WEIGHTED_AVERAGE_RETAIL_PRICE_OF_ATTA_SUBSTITUTES_PER_LB__X6_
goes up by 1 unit on an average, then Per Capita Consumption of Atta lb (Y) would do down by 0.45
unit provided other independent variables are constant.

If the RETAIL_PRICE_OF_RICE_PER_LB__X4_ goes up by 1 unit on an average, then Per Capita


Consumption of Atta lb (Y) would do up by 0.36 unit provided other independent variables are
constant.

Null hypothesis for this test is no serial correlation at up to 2 lags. If the value is less than 0.05, null
hypothesis will be rejected and if the value is grater than 0.05, then null hypothesis would be
accepted. We can say that there is no problem of auto correlation.

Now we can see that there is no impact of past two years on the current year because RESID (-1) is
greater than 0.05, hence RESID (-2) is also greater than 0.05, hence in both cases null hypothesis will
be accepted.
