Calculate permanent income, Basic Statistics

Assignment Help:

Suppose that permanent income, YP(t) is calculated as the average of disposable income (YDt) over the past 5 years, that is:

YP(t) = 0.2(YDt + YDt-1 + YDt-2 + YDt-3 YDt-4)

Suppose further that consumption is given as

C = 0.9 YP(t)

a.  If you earned $20,000 per year for the past 10 years, what is your permanent income?
