A firm experienced the demand shown in the following table. *Unkown future value to be forecast Fill in the table by preparing forecasts based on a five-year moving average, a three-year moving average, and exponential smoothing (with a w=0.9 and a w=0.3). Note The exponential smoothing forecasts may be begun by assuming Y t+1=Yt. Using the forecasts from 2005 through 2009, compare the accuracy of each of the forecasting methods based on the RMSE criterion. Which forecast would you have used for 2010? Why?

By tradtional rule-of-thumb, which of the following correctly identifies the dates of the most recent recession in the U.S.? a. Starting July 2019 and ending January 2021. O b. First and second quarters of 2022. c. Starting second quarter 2020. d. Third quarter 2022.
Consider the binary variable version of the fixed effects model with an additional regressor, D1; that is, let Yit = β0 + β1Xit + γ1D1i + γ2D2i +...+ γnDni + ui.a) Suppose that n = 3. Show that the binary regressors and the “constant” regressor areperfectly multicollinear; that is, express one of the variables D1i , D2i, D3i, and X0it as aperfect linear function of the others, where X0it = 1 for all i,t.b) Show the result in (a) for general n.c) What will happen if you try to estimate the coefficients of the regression by OLS?

Mr. Geppetto uses exponential smoothing to predict revenue in his wood carving business. He uses a weight of  = .4 for the naïve forecast and (1-) = .6 for the past forecast. What revenue did he predict for March using the data below? MONTH REVENUE FORECAST Nov 100 100 Dec 90 100 Jan 115 ---- Feb 110 ---- MARCH ? ?
Consider a one-period model like the one considered in class. There are three states. At the beginning, everyone is unemployed. In the second stage, individuals search for a job. Suppose that the probability of finding a job is 0.5. in the third stage, individuals who found a job will work, while those who did not find a job remain unemployed. Each job pays wage w=10. If a person does not find a job he/she will collect unemployment benefits b=4. a)What is the expected income at the beginning of the economy (i.e. before the job search)?
