Question: Using the same data as in Exercise 14.2, a researcher tests for a stochastic trend in In(IPt) using the following regression: where the standard errors

where the standard errors shown in parentheses are computed using the homoskedasticity-only formula and the regressor "t" is a linear time trend.
a. Use the ADF statistic to test for a stochastic trend (unit root) in In(IP).
b. Do these results support the specification used in Exercise 14.2? Explain.
