Where
y` = difference between price in the current year and price in the previous year, in dollars per barrel
x1 = difference between spot price in the current year and spot price in the previous year
x2 = dummy variable taking the value 1 in 1974 and 0 otherwise to represent the specific effect of the oil embargo of that year
The numbers in parentheses under the coefficients are the estimated coefficient standard errors. Interpret verbally and graphically the estimated coefficient on the dummy variable.
