Shumway and D.S)) - Class notes - A calculator (No phone calculators are allowed) No other aids are allowed. For example you are not allowed to have any other textbook or past exams. All your work must be presented clearly in order to get credit. Answer alone (even though correct) will only qualify for ZERO credit. Please show your work in the space provided; you may use the back of the pages, if necessary, but you MUST remain organized. Show your work and answer in the space provided, in ink. Pencil may be used, but then any re-grading will NOT be allowed. There are 10 questions and 8 pages including this page. Please check to see you have all the pages and questions. Good Luck! Question: Total Points: Score:
2 Page 2 of 8 1. Consider the time series X t = t + W t where W t W N(0, σ 2 ) and let Y t be the 5-point moving average defined by Y t = j= 2 X t+j. (a) (2 points) Give the mean function of X t (i.e. µ X (t) = E(X t )). Solution: µ X (t) = E(X t ) = t + EW t = t since EW t = 0 t (b) (3 points) Calculate the mean function of Y t (i.e. µ Y (t) = E(Y t )). Show your work clearly and give your answer in the simplest form. Eg You should evaluate all summations involved. Solution: EY t = j= 2 EX t+j = j= 2 ( (t + j)) = t since 2 j= 2 j = 0 (c) (2 points) What is the value of Cov(X t, X t+1 ). Solution: Cov(X t, X t+1 ) = Cov(W t, W t+1 ) = 0 (d) (5 points) Calculate Corr(Y t, Y t+1 ). Solution: Cov(Y t, Y t+1 ) = 1 Cov(X 25 t 2 + X t 1 + X t + X t+1 + X t+2, X t 1 + X t + X t+1 + X t+2 + X t+3 ) = 4 25 σ2 V ar(y t ) = V ar( 1 5 Corr(Y t, Y t+1 ) = Cov(Yt,Y t+1) = 1 25 = 1 25 = X t+j ) j= 2 2 V (X t+j ) j= 2 2 V ( (t + j) + W t+j ) j= 2 2 V (W t+j ) j= 2 = σ2 = 1 5 σ2.

Solution: ρ X (1) = θ. 1+θ 2 dρ X (1) = (1+θ2 ) 2θ 2 = 1 θ2. dθ (1+θ 2 ) 2 (1+θ 2 ) 2 dρ X (1) dθ = 0 = θ = ±1. When θ = 1, ρ X (1) = 0.5 (max) and θ = 1, ρ X ( 1) = 0.5 (min). θ 1+θ 2 θ
4 Page 4 of 8 3. Consider the time series X t = 1 3 X t X t 2 + W t where W t W N(0, 1) (a) (3 points) Show that this process is stationary? Solution: Show that both the roots of the AR characteristic equation lie outside the unit circle. The AR characteristic equation is φ(b) = 1 1B B2 = 0 or 2B 2 +3B 9 = 0. This has roots 3± = 3±9. i.e. 3 or 6. Both the roots are greater than 1 and so the process is stationary. (b) (7 points) Calculate ρ(2) Solution: Solve Yule-Walker equations to get γ(0) and γ(1) and γ(2) and ρ(2) = γ(2)/γ(0). The Yule-Walter equations are γ(h) p i=1 φ iγ(h i) = σwi(h 2 = 0). We have φ 1 = 1, φ 3 2 = 2 and 9 σ2 w = 1 When h = 0, γ(0) 1 3 γ(1) 2 9 γ(2) = 1 h = 1, γ(1) 1 3 γ(0) 2 9 γ(1) = 0 h = 2, γ(2) 1 3 γ(1) 2 9 γ(0) = 0 The second equation above gives γ(1) = 3 γ(0) and substituting this in the 7 third equation gives γ(2) = ( 1 + ) γ(0) or ρ(2) = = 23 =
5 Page 5 of 8 4. (8 points) Consider the time series X t = φ 1 X t 1 + φ 2 X t 2 + W t where W t W N(0, σ 2 ). If this process is stationary, then prove that φ 2 < 1 Solution: Ch fn: 1 φ 1 B φ 2 B 2 = 0. If r 1 and r 2 are the roots of this equation, then r 1 r 2 = 1/ φ 2. Since the process is stationary, all roots must be are greater than 1 in modulus and this requires 1/ φ 2 > 1 i.e. φ 2 < 1
6 Page 6 of 8 5. (11 points) Consider the time series model X t = φ 2 X t 2 + W t + θw t 1, where W t N(0, σ 2 w), φ = 0.5 and θ = 0.8. Calculate ρ(1). Solution: X t = (1 φ 2 B 2 ) 1 (1 + θb)w t = (1 + φ 2 B 2 + φ 4 B 4 + φ 6 B 6 + )(1 + θb)w t = (W t + φ 2 W t 2 + φ 4 W t 4 + φ 6 W t 6 + ) + (θw t 1 + θφ 2 W t 3 + θφ 4 W t 5 + θφ 6 W t 7 + ). γ(0) = V ar(x t ) = σw θ 2 σ 2 1 φ 4 w 1 = σ 2 1 φ 4 w 1+θ2. 1 φ 4 To calculate γ(1) we rearrange the terms in X t as linear process: X t = W t + θw t 1 + φ 2 W t 2 + θφ 2 W t 3 + φ 4 W t 4 + θφ 4 W t 5 + φ 6 W t 6 + θφ 6 W t 7 + ). γ(1) = σw 2 k=0 ψ kψ k+1 = σw(θ 2 + θφ 2 + θφ 4 + θφ 6 + ) = θσw φ 2 ρ(1) = γ(1) = γ(0)

A) 0 B) 0.2 C) 0.04 D) 0.5 E) 49 Solution: This is a random walk process. (p 12,13 my notes). Corr(X s, X t ) = Corr(X 2, X 50 ) = min (s,t) max (s,t) 2 = (3 points) Which of the following processes is (are) non-stationary. In these processes, W t W N(0, σ 2 ).

C) (1 0.3B)X t = (1 B)W t D) X t = 2.25X t 1 0.5X t 2 + W t E) All the above processes are stationary. Solution: a) White noise processes are stationary. b) The absolute value of the root of the AR characteristic pol is 1/0.5 > 1 and so stationary c) 0.8 ± 0.9i > 1 and so stationary. d) The absolute value of the root of the AR characteristic pol is 1/0.3 > 1 and so stationary e) AR ch pol is B + 0.5B 2 = (1 2B)(1 0.25B) and one of the roots is 0.5 < 1 and so not stationary. 8. (3 points) Consider the stationary AR(1) process with a constant term given by X t = X t 1 + W t where W t W N(0, σ 2 ). What is the value of E(X t ) for this process? A) 0.2 B) 0.33 C) 0.4 Question 8 continues on the next page...
