7.2.3 An Example: The University Effect on House Prices Based on these regression results, we estimate the location premium, for lots near the university, to be $27,453 the price per square foot to be $89.12 for houses near the university, and $76.12 for houses in other areas. that houses depreciate $190.10 per year that a pool increases the value of a home by $4377.20 that a fireplace increases the value of a home by $1649.20 Principles of Econometrics, 3rd Edition

7.3.3 Testing the Equivalence of Two Regressions Principles of Econometrics, 3rd Edition

7.3.3 Testing the Equivalence of Two Regressions Remark: The usual F-test of a joint hypothesis relies on the assumptions MR1-MR6 of the linear regression model. Of particular relevance for testing the equivalence of two regressions is assumption MR3, that the variance of the error term is the same for all observations. If we are considering possibly different slopes and intercepts for parts of the data, it might also be true that the error variances are different in the two parts of the data. In such a case the usual F-test is not valid. Principles of Econometrics, 3rd Edition
