(a) Estimate the following linear regression: atinc42 = B1 + 82 * ecage26 + By * male1 + B4 * maleage +e Dependent Variable: After Tax Income (atinc42) Independent Variables: (1) Constant (this is included automatically - you do not need to do anything) (2) Person's age in reference year (ecage26) (3) male1 (4) maleage (b) What is the estimated effect of age on after tax income for a female? What is the estimated effect of age on after tax income for a male? (c) Consider the following hypothesis: the effect of age on after tax income is identical for males and females. Conduct a statistical test to verify if the data support that hypothesis. Use a level of significance of 5% and explain how you proceed. Hint: all the information you need to conduct this test appears on the regression output from part (a). State at least one economic reason that could explain why this hypothesis is rejected
