问题如下:
5. Based on Exhibit 1, the forecasted oil price in September 2015 based on the AR(2) model is closest to:
选项:
A.$38.03.
B.$40.04.
C.$61.77.
解释:
B is correct. The last two observations in the WTI time series are July and August 2015, when the WTI oil price was $51.16 and $42.86, respectively. Therefore, September 2015 represents a one-period-ahead forecast. The one-period- ahead forecast from an AR(2) model is calculated as
So, the one-period-ahead (September 2015) forecast is calculated as
Therefore, the September 2015 forecast based on the AR(2) model is $40.04.
老师请问,这题和这一case的第一小题中求 predicted WTI oil price for October 2015 using the linear trend model, t 用183代入,这里的Oil Price aug 2015就不用181,Oil Price July 2015就不用180带入?
