The internal auditor of a bank has developed a multiple regression model which has been used for a number of years to estimate the amount of interest income from commercial loans.

Which of the following conclusions is justified by the change?

  • A. Changing to a cross-sectional regression analysis should cause the R2 to increase.
  • B. Regression analysis is no longer an appropriate technique to estimate interest income.
  • C. Some new factors, not included in the model, are causing interest income to change.
