B.C.K.V, Kolkata, WB, INDIA
Where,
Y= dependent variable
X=explanatory(independent)variable
a=intercept
bi are regression coefficients
e=2.718………….
u=error term Follows N(0,constant variance)
This function is non linear in parameters so to make it linear in parameters apply ln both
sides then equation looks like
Yi=a X1ib1 X2ib2 X3ib3 eui
lnYi=lna+ b1lnX1i +b2lnX2i +b3lnX3i+ui
Steps
1.Goto variable view(type variables)
2.Data view(type respected data)
3.Apply logarithmic Transformation to the data
4.Go to Analyse
5.Get Output
1.Goto variable view(type variables)

Transform  compute variable
a. Give any name in target variable
b. In numerical expression type LN(fertilizers),Here LN is for Natural logarithm. LG10(fertilizers) for common
logarithm,LG2(fertilizers) For base 2),then click OK
then click OK
