This book was released on 2016 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major issue for policy makers is handling with continues increase in the level of unemployment in Pakistan. Thus forecasting unemployment rate is imperative to policy makers. This study aims to explore the best forecasting model among ARIMA, ARFIMA and exponential smoothing for forecasting unemployment. Secondly this study analyzed unemployment using time series techniques, measured long & short run relationship with population growth, labor force participation rate and crop production, and also investigated the causality between unemployment and other variables. Time series data ranging from 1965 to 2014 is collected from Pakistan Economic Survey for analysis. This study evaluate the forecasting performance of three models by using the forecast accuracy criterion such mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), root mean square error (RMSE) and Theil's U statistics. Double Exponential Smoothing model is chosen as a best forecasted model for unemployment rate on the basis of forecast accuracy criterion. Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) and Phillips-Perron (PP) test is used for checking stationarity in the variables. At level the variables were non stationary and become stationary at first difference. The results of Johnson cointegration and Vector Error Correction model (VECM) indicated that there exists long & short run cointegration relationship between unemployment rate and other variables. Granger Causality test shows bi-directional causality running from crop production toward population growth.

This book was released on 1997-05-01 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imposing cointegration on a forecasting system, if cointegration is present, is believed to improve long-horizon forecasts. Contrary to this belief, at long horizons nothing is lost by ignoring cointegration when the forecasts are evaluated using standard multivariate forecast accuracy measures. In fact, simple univariate Box-Jenkins forecasts are just as accurate. Our results highlight a potentially important deficiency of standard forecast accuracy measures—they fail to value the maintenance of cointegrating relationships among variables—and we suggest alternatives that explicitly do so.

This book was released on 1993-08-13 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This graduate level textbook deals with analyzing and forecasting multiple time series. It considers a wide range of multiple time series models and methods. The models include vector autoregressive, vector autoregressive moving average, cointegrated, and periodic processes as well as state space and dynamic simultaneous equations models. Least squares, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian methods are considered for estimating these models. Different procedures for model selection or specification are treated and a range of tests and criteria for evaluating the adequacy of a chosen model are introduced. The choice of point and interval forecasts is considered and impulse response analysis, dynamic multipliers as well as innovation accounting are presented as tools for structural analysis within the multiple time series context. This book is accessible to graduate students in business and economics. In addition, multiple time series courses in other fields such as statistics and engineering may be based on this book. Applied researchers involved in analyzing multiple time series may benefit from the book as it provides the background and tools for their task. It enables the reader to perform his or her analyses in a gap to the difficult technical literature on the topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Time Series Analysis and Adjustment the authors explain how the last four decades have brought dramatic changes in the way researchers analyze economic and financial data on behalf of economic and financial institutions and provide statistics to whomsoever requires them. Such analysis has long involved what is known as econometrics, but time series analysis is a different approach driven more by data than economic theory and focused on modelling. An understanding of time series and the application and understanding of related time series adjustment procedures is essential in areas such as risk management, business cycle analysis, and forecasting. Dealing with economic data involves grappling with things like varying numbers of working and trading days in different months and movable national holidays. Special attention has to be given to such things. However, the main problem in time series analysis is randomness. In real-life, data patterns are usually unclear, and the challenge is to uncover hidden patterns in the data and then to generate accurate forecasts. The case studies in this book demonstrate that time series adjustment methods can be efficaciously applied and utilized, for both analysis and forecasting, but they must be used in the context of reasoned statistical and economic judgment. The authors believe this is the first published study to really deal with this issue of context.

Download or read book Cointegration and Detectable Linear and Nonlinear Causality written by An-Sing Chen and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper applies linear and nonlinear Granger causality tests to examine the dynamic relation between London Metal Exchange (LME) cash prices and three possible predictors. The analysis uses matched quarterly inventory, UK Treasury bill interest rates, futures prices and cash prices for the commodity lead traded on the LME. We also examine the effects of cointegration on both linear and nonlinear Granger causality tests. When cointegration is not modeled, we find evidence of both linear and nonlinear causality between cash prices and analyzed predictor variables. However, after controlling for cointegration, we no longer find evidence of significant nonlinear causality. Our results contribute to the empirical literature on commodity price forecasting by highlighting the relationship between cointegration and detectable linear and nonlinear causality. We also illustrate the importance of interest rate and inventory as well as futures price in forecasting cash prices. Our failure to detect significant nonlinearity after controlling for cointegration may also go some way to explaining the reason for the disappointing forecasting performances of many nonlinear models in the general finance literature. It may be that the variables are correct, but the functional form is overly complex and a standard VAR or VECM may often apply.

Book excerpt: `This most commendable volume brings together a set of papers which permits ready access to the means of estimating quantitative relationships using cointegration and error correction procedures. Providing the data to show fully the basis for calculation, this approach is an excellent perception of the needs of senior undergraduates and graduate students.' - Professor W.P. Hogan, The University of Sydney Applied economists, with modest econometric background, are now desperately looking for expository literature on the unit roots and cointegration techniques. This volume of expository essays is written for them. It explains in a simple style various tests for the existence of unit roots and how to estimate cointegration relationships. Original data are given to enable easy replications. Limitations of some existing unit root tests are also discussed.

Download or read book Modern Time Series Analysis in Forest Products Markets written by Jens Abildtrup and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume comprises fifteen papers exploring the consequences of applying modern time-series methods, particularly co-integrated time-series methods, for the analysis of forest economics problems. The methods represent the forefront of econometrics in this area, and the volume is the first of its kind. An introductory paper explains the econometrics of unit-root processes. Much of what follows in the other papers depends upon only a few of the ideas presented in the introduction. The volume includes tests of, e.g., the Law of One Price, land valuation models, demand and supply models, Granger-causality, and forecast models. The reader will learn a great deal about forest economies, particularly in Northern Europe, and about the practical use of modern time-series methods. The methods presented are applicable to other fields of economics. The volume is aimed at researchers in applied economics and as a supplement to (advanced) theoretical textbooks, mainly in Natural Resource Economics.
