Multicollinearity and heteroskedasticity

Reference no: EM131798722

George believes that returns of mutual funds are influenced by annual turnover rates and annual expense ratios. In order to substantiate his claim, he randomly selects eight mutual funds and collects data on each fund's five-year annual return (Return), its annual holding turnover rate (Turnover), and its annual expense ratio (Expense). The data set can be found on the text website, labeled Turnover and Expense.
