More lags

It might be interesting to learn if coupon actions only cause an immediate effect on sales or if the effect continues into the next period.

Again, you shift the COUPON predictor back by using the function lag(). The result is assigned to a new variable Coupon.lag. Both, the original COUPON and the Coupon.lag variables, are added to the log(SALES) ~ PRICE + Price.lag relationship by using the update() function.
