7、 will produce an estimate that is different from zero Test for statistical significance using t-tests or p-valuesManagerial EconomicsManagerial Economics4-7 First determine the level of significance Probability of finding a parameter estimate to be statistically different from zero when,in fact,it i

10、l Economics4-10Using p-Values Treat as statistically significant only those parameter estimates with p-values smaller than the maximum acceptable significance level p-value gives exact level of significance Also the probability of finding significance when none existsManagerial EconomicsManagerial E
