(i) The estimated short run income elasticity is 0.660755. The estimated long run income elasticity is β 3 + β 4 1 β 2 0.660755 0.392093 = 1 0.708128 = 0.920479 Using the EViews Wald coefficient restrictions test facility, we can test the hypothesis that this long-run elasticity is zero: Wald Test on Long Run Elasticity Wald Test: Equation: Untitled Null Hypothesis: (C(3)+C(4))/(1-C(2)) F-statistic 733.3756 Probability 0.000000 Chi-square 733.3756 Probability 0.000000 (ii) The test for serial correlation yields: Breusch-Godfrey Serial Correlation LM Test: F-statistic 0.069339 Probability 0.794163 Obs*R-squared 0.085871 Probability 0.769494 On the basis of the Breusch-Godfrey serial correlation test, we would not reject the null of no autocorrelation. 2

(iii) Wald Test of hypothesis: β 2 + β 3 + β 4 = 1 Wald Test: Equation: Untitled Null Hypothesis: C(2)+C(3)+C(4)=1 F-statistic 1.254592 Probability 0.271565 Chi-square 1.254592 Probability 0.262677 We do not reject H 0 at the 5% significance level. (iv) Subtracting C t 1 from both sides of we get LC t = β 1 + β 2 LC t 1 + β 3 LY t + β 4 LY t 1 +β 5 INF t + β 6 INF t 1 + ε t LC t = β 1 + β 2 LC t 1 LC t 1 + β 3 LY t + β 4 LY t 1 +β 5 INF t + β 6 INF t 1 + ε t, and, adding and subtracting β 2 LY t 1 and β 3 LY t 1, we obtain LC t = β 1 + β 2 (LC t 1 LY t 1 ) LC t 1 + β 3 LY t +(β 2 + β 3 + β 4 )LY t 1 + β 5 INF t + β 6 INF t 1 + ε t. If the restriction β 2 + β 3 + β 4 = 1 holds then we can rewrite this as or β 3 + β 4 1 β 2 = 1 LC t = β 1 + (β 2 1)(LC t 1 LY t 1 ) + β 3 LY t +β 5 INF t + β 6 INF t 1 + ε t which is the same as the restricted model LC t = γ 1 + γ 2 LY t + γ 3 (LY t 1 LC t 1 ) +γ 4 INF t + γ 5 INF t 1 + ε t. with the parameter correspondences: γ 1 = β 1, γ 2 = β 3, γ 3 = 1 β 2, and γ 4 = β 5 and γ 5 = β 6. 3

(c) One way to obtain an estimate of the long-run (equilibrium) multiplier is to note that in equilibrium so that X t = X t 1 = X t 1 = = X t 7 Y t = c + 7 α 0 X t + (1 + 2 + 3 + + 7) α 1 X t +(1 + 4 + 9 + + 49) α 2 X t. The long-run multiplier is therefore given by 7 α 0 + (1 + 2 + 3 + + 7) α 1 + (1 + 4 + 9 + + 49) α 2 = 0.86298. 8
