Testing of seasonal fractional integration in UK and Japanese consumption and income
نویسندگان
چکیده
The seasonal structure of quarterly UK and Japanese consumption and income is examined by means of fractionally-based tests proposed by Robinson (1994). These series were analysed from an autoregressive unit root viewpoint by Hylleberg, Engle, Granger and Yoo (HEGY, 1990) and Hylleberg, Engle, Granger and Lee (HEGL, 1993). We find that seasonal fractional integration, with amplitudes possibly varying across frequencies, is an alternative plausible way of modelling these series.

Testing the long run neutrality of money based on the seasonal cointegration theory: The case of Iran
This article uses seasonal integration and co integration techniques to test the hypothesis of neutrality of money, using data from the Iranian economy. Seasonal data for the three variables of money supply, output and prices show that (increase in) money supply and the price level are co integrated at zero frequency, but one does not see such a relationship between (increase in) money supply a...
متن کاملDeterministic seasonality versus seasonal fractional integration
We make use in this article of a testing procedure suggested by Robinson (1994) for testing deterministic seasonality versus seasonal fractional integration. A new test statistic is developed to simultaneously test both, the order of integration of the seasonal component and the need of seasonal dummy variables. Finite-sample critical values of the tests are computed and, an empirical applicati...
متن کاملTesting for Stochastic Non- Linearity in the Rational Expectations Permanent Income Hypothesis
The Rational Expectations Permanent Income Hypothesis implies that consumption follows a martingale. However, most empirical tests have rejected the hypothesis. Those empirical tests are based on linear models. If the data generating process is non-linear, conventional tests may not assess some of the randomness properly. As a result, inference based on conventional tests of linear models can b...
متن کاملFinite integration method with RBFs for solving time-fractional convection-diffusion equation with variable coefficients
In this paper, a modification of finite integration method (FIM) is combined with the radial basis function (RBF) method to solve a time-fractional convection-diffusion equation with variable coefficients. The FIM transforms partial differential equations into integral equations and this creates some constants of integration. Unlike the usual FIM, the proposed method computes constants of integ...
متن کاملQuartic and pantic B-spline operational matrix of fractional integration
In this work, we proposed an effective method based on cubic and pantic B-spline scaling functions to solve partial differential equations of fractional order. Our method is based on dual functions of B-spline scaling functions. We derived the operational matrix of fractional integration of cubic and pantic B-spline scaling functions and used them to transform the mentioned equations to a syste...
