Consider the AR(1) model xt = 0:5x_t-1 + w_t. Derive the partial
acf hh when h = 1 and 2. Show your work or provide justification.
You need to start from the definition.
Consider the first-order autoregressive model
Xt = ρXt-1 +
"єt,= 1,..,T
with X0 = 0 and
{єt} ~ i.i.d.(0, σ
2).
Explain what is the Dickey-Fuller test in the context of this
model. In particular, your answer should include the null and
alternative hypotheses, the definitions of both the coe¢cient test
and the t test version of the Dickey-Fuller test and how
the critical values are obtained.
Consistency is a desirable property of statistical test.
