Assess the predictability of this model. Is it a good model or not, explain in detail why, you should use multiple statistical inference techniques. 2. What does the term quantity with its estimated coefficient tell you about the price? Does this make sense? 3. What do the terms 1 month 2 month and 3 month futures tell you about the price considering that the omitted variable here is the spot market? Do these three variables make sense in relation to the spot market price? 4. One of the main issues with regression is multicollinearity. A variance inflation factor was calculated for each of the variables and produced the following results for a few of the variables: Bid to Lease
