True or False? A dataset consists of U.S. dollar exchange rates the day before yesterday against 30 other world currencies. This is a time series dataset.
Comprehensively state the criteria and process of selecting appropriate models for time series forecasting.
A researcher has a sample of 6 annual observations {94, 104, 102, 99, 111 and 107} for the CPI in country Z for the period 2015 to 2020, and wants to forecast CPI for the years 2021, 2022 and 2023. The researcher uses 3 different forecasting models: A, B and C. Model A is an AR(1) model with no drift and with an estimated autoregressive coefficient = 0.7. Model B is a MA(1) model with no constant and with an estimated MA coefficient = -0.4 (note the minus !). Model C is a random walk model with no drift. The error terms over the 2015-2020 period were estimated to have the values: {3, -1, 2, 4, -3, 1}.
a. Compute the 2021, 2022 and 2023 forecasted values for the consumer price index based on the three models. Show the formulas and the details of your calculations, and explain all the related symbols.
b. Suppose that the actual values of the CPI over the 2021, 2022 and 2023 were {108, 114, 105}. Calculate the Root mean square error of the three model forecasts over the 2021-2023…

- Q2B. Which of the following are limitations of using Impulse Response Functions(IRFs) in time series analysis?i. IRFs are only valid for linear time series models.ii. IRFs assume that the underlying time series is stationary.iii. IRFs can provide information about the short-term dynamics of the relationshipbetween variables, but they do not capture longer-term effects or otherimportant aspects of the relationship.iv. IRFs depend on the specification of the model used to estimate the relationshipbetween variables.arrow_forwardBureau of Economic Analysis in the USA is responsible for construction and maintenance of national income and product accounts (NIPA). Measurement began in the 1930s due to frustration of Roosevelt and Hoover trying to design policies to combat the Great Depression. Simon Kuznets (Nobel laureate) was commissioned to develop initial methodology and estimates. In 1947, the process became much more consistent. Methodologies have frequently been changed (improved?) as a result of advances in economics, accounting, and data collection. Past data are then revised to reflect new definitions. On the following information, calculate GNP at factor cost. Whether GNPFC derive from income method equivalent to expenditure method? S.No. Items Rs.
