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)  yt = 1.6 + .75yt-1 + et,                     yt = 2,                          s2 = 1.21        

b)  y t = 2.5 + .3y t-1 + et,                      yt = 10,                                    s2 = 6.25        

c)  yt = 1.2 - .2yt-1 + et,                        yt = 1.5,                       s2 = .49          

d)  Dyt = 2.5 - .8Dyt-1 + et,                  yt = 6,  yt-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)  yt =  6 + .7yt-1 + .12yt-2+ et,                        yo = 5, y1 = 6,              s2 = 1.21        

b)  y t = 2.5 + .3y t-1 - .28yt-2 + et,                     yo = 1, y1 = 2,              s2 = 6.25        

c)  yt = 1.2 - .2yt-1 - .35yt-2 + et,                        yo = 1.5, y1 = 2,           s2 = .49          

d)  yt = 2.5 - .07yt-1 + .06yt-2 + et,                    yo = 6,    y1 = 5,            s2 = 3.69        

 

 

For the ARCH model, Yt = 8.5 + .6Yt-1 ,     Yt = 10,     et = .5

                                               (3.2)  (2.8)

                                                e2t = 1.2 + .2e2t-1

  2. What is the conditional variance of Y at times t+1, t+2, t+3?
  3. What is the unconditional (long-run) mean of Y?
  4. What is the unconditional (long-run) variance of Y?
  5. Write 95% confidence interval for the long-run forecast of Y.
  6. Write 95% confidence interval for forecasts of Y at time t+1, t+2, and t+3.

 

For the following ARCH model, Yt = 4.5  + 0.4Yt-1, Yt = 5,     et = .3

                                                                   (3.2)  (2.8)

                                                                     e2t = 2.6 + .8e2t-1
