A ?nancial institution specializing in venture capital is interested in predict- ing the success of business operations that the institution helps to finance. Success is defined by the institution as return on its investment, as a percentage, after 3 years of operation. The explanatory variables used are Investment (in thousands of dollars), Early investment (in thousands of dollars), and two dummy variables denoting the category of business. The values of these variables are (0, 0) for high technology industry, (0, 1) for biotechnology companies, and (1, 0) for aerospace ?rms. Following is part of the computer output for this analysis. Interpret the out- put, and give a complete analysis of the results of this study based on the provided information.

Multiple Regression 513

The regression equation is

Return = 6.16 + 0.617 INVEST + 0.151 EARLY + 11.1 DUM1 + 4.15 DUM2

Predictor	Coef	Stdev
Constant	6.162	1.642
INVEST	0.6168	0.1581
EARLY	0.1509	0.1465
DUM1	11.051	1.355
DUM2	4.150	1.315

s = 2.148 R-sq = 91.6% R-sq (adj) = 89.4%
