What is the conditional mean:

For every AR(1) model below:

a. Do a three-period ahead forecasting using the given initial values and statistics.  Write a 95% confidence interval for each forecast.

b. Do a long-run (unconditional) forecasting and write a 95% confidence interval.

a)  y_t = 1.6 + .75y_t-1 + e_t,                     y_t = 2,                          s² = 1.21        

b)  y _t = 2.5 + .3y _t-1 + e_t,                      y_t = 10,                                    s² = 6.25        

c)  y_t = 1.2 - .2y_t-1 + e_t,                        y_t = 1.5,                       s² = .49          

d)  Dy_t = 2.5 - .8Dy_t-1 + e_t,                  y_t = 6,  y_t-1 = 5,            s² = 3.69        

For every AR(2) model below:

a. Do a three-period ahead forecasting using the given initial values and statistics.  Write a 95% confidence interval for each forecast.

b. Do a long-run (unconditional) forecasting and write a 95% confidence interval.

a)  y_t =  6 + .7y_t-1 + .12y_t-2+ e_t,                        y_o = 5, y₁ = 6,              s² = 1.21        

b)  y _t = 2.5 + .3y _t-1 - .28y_t-2 + e_t,                     y_o = 1, y₁ = 2,              s² = 6.25        

c)  y_t = 1.2 - .2y_t-1 - .35y_t-2 + e_t,                        y_o = 1.5, y₁ = 2,           s² = .49          

d)  y_t = 2.5 - .07y_t-1 + .06y_t-2 + e_t,                    y_o = 6,    y₁ = 5,            s² = 3.69        

 

 

For the ARCH model, Y_t = 8.5 + .6Y_t-1 ,     Y_t = 10,     e_t = .5

                                               (3.2)  (2.8)

                                                e²_t = 1.2 + .2e²_t-1

For the following ARCH model, Y_t = 4.5  + 0.4Y_t-1, Y_t = 5,     e_t = .3

                                                                   (3.2)  (2.8)

                                                                     e²_t = 2.6 + .8e²_t-1
