Consider the Following Set of Quarterly Sales Data Given in Thousands

Consider the following set of quarterly sales data given in thousands of dollars.The following dummy variable model that incorporates a linear trend and constant seasonal variation was used: y_t = β₀+ β₁t + β_Q1(Q1)+ β_Q2(Q2)+ β_Q3(Q3)+ ε_t
In this model there are 3 binary seasonal variables (Q1,Q₂,and Q₃).
Where
Qi is a binary (0,1)variable defined as:
Qi = 1,if the time series data is associated with quarter i;
Qi = 0,if the time series data is not associated with quarter i.
The results associated with this data and model are given in the following computer output.
The prediction equation is
Sales = 2442 + 6.2 Time - 693 Q1 - 1499 Q2 + 153 Q3 $\begin{array} { l c c c c } \text { Predictor } & \text { Coef } & \text { StDev } & \text { T } & \text { P } \\ \text { Constant } & 2441.7 & 151.9 & 16.08 & 0.000 \\\text { Time } & 6.25 & 14.70 & 0.43 & 0.684 \\\text { Q1 } & -692.9 & 142.8 & -4.85 & 0.002 \\\text { Q2 } & -1499.2 & 139.0 & -10.79 & 0.000 \\\text { Q3 } & 152.9 & 136.6 & 1.12 & 0.300 \end{array}$
$\mathrm { S } = 166.4 \quad \mathrm { R } - \mathrm { Sq } = 96.4 \% \quad \mathrm { R } - \mathrm { Sq } ( \mathrm { adj } ) = 94.4 \%$
