2. in a study of innovation in the insurance industry. an economist wishes to relate the speed with which a particular insurance innovation is adopted [y] to the size of the insurance nn [x1] and the type of Fun. The response variable is measured by the number of months elapsed between the time the rst rm adopted the innovation and the time the given rm adopted the innovation. The size of rm is measured by the amount of total assets of the rm. The type of rm is a categorical variable composed of two levelsstock companies and mutual companies. do indicator is dened to represent this variable: x; = 1 if stock company and = i] if mutual company. Then. a linear model. y = , + 3111 + .8312 + axlxz + E. is tted to the sample data. The R output is given below. Coefficients: Estimate Std.
