The questions below are based on a dataset containing the characteristics of 5,407
households. In particular, we will use the following variables:
- size: home size, measured in square feet.
- hhinc: annual household net income, measured in euros.
- owner: dummy variable equal to 1 if the living space is owned, and 0 if the living
space is rented.
- hhsize1: dummy variable equal to 1 if the number of household’s members is 1 or
2, and 0 otherwise.
- hhsize2: dummy variable equal to 1 if the number of household’s members is 3 or
4, and 0 otherwise.
- hhsize3: dummy variable equal to 1 if the number of household’s members is 5 or
above 5, and 0 otherwise.
- edu: education level of household’s members.


We conduct a simple regression of size on hhinc, now using robust standard errors.
The regression output is reported in Table 2. Why are the estimated coefficients in
Table 2 equal to the estimated coefficients in Table 1? Do the conclusions on the
statistical significance at 5% of the coefficient of hhinc change between Tables 1 and
2?
