Question Details:
Regression with S&P 500 (x-variable) vs. Company A (y-variable)
                 Coefficients Standard Error t Stat                  P-value

S&P 500 Index 1.082553178 0.275285934 3.932468184 0.000226989


Company (A) 
Mean 0.949840777
Standard Error 0.747830986
Standard Deviation 5.792673908
Sample Variance 33.555070999
Count 60

Q: The maximum level of significance at which stock returns of company A moves perfectly with the market is? 

I think the question is to test if the slope is equal to 1 or not equal to 1, so i (0.949840777-1)/(5.792673908/sqrt(60)), and get p-value 0.9467154. i don't what to do,i guess the significance level is 0.1, 0.90, 0.94, 0.99, 0.1, 0.01, but they are all wrong.

Response Details:
Regression with S&P 500 (x-variable) vs. Company A (y-variable)
                              Coefficients          Standard Error           t Stat                  P-value

Since the p-value is very much less than 0.01, the level of significance so we conclude that there is significant linear regression between the X and y variables
