ASSIST WITH PART C

You are an econometrician working in the Ministry of Finance in Trinidad and Tobago and using
a database consisting of 108 monthly observations on automobile accidents for Trinidad and
Tobago between January 2011 and December 2019, you estimate the following model:
log( totacc,) = Bo + Bit+ B2feb, + Bzmar,+ B12dec, + µ.
where totacc is the total number of accidents, t is time (measured in months), and feb, mar, dec,
are dummy variables indicating whether time period t corresponds to the appropriate month.
You obtain the following OLS results:
