A researcher wants to test the order of integration of some time series data. He decides to use the DF test. He estimates a regr

ession of the form
delta yt = mu + si yt-1 + mut
and obtains the estimate ˆ? = -0.02 with standard error = 0.31.
(a) What are the null and alternative hypotheses for this test?
(b) Given the data, and a critical value of -2.88, perform the test.
(c) What is the conclusion from this test and what should be the next step?
(d) Why is it not valid to compare the estimated test statistic with the corresponding critical value from a t-distribution, even though the test statistic takes the form of the usual t-ratio?

Answer:

a) H0: u = presence of a unit root

   HA: u ≠ presence of a unit root  ( i.e. stationary series )

b) t stat = -0.064

c) We will reject the Null hypothesis and the next step will be to accept the alternative hypothesis

d) It is not valid to compare the estimated t stat with the corresponding critical value because a random walk is non-stationary while the difference is stationary because it is white noise

Explanation:

<u>a) stating the null and alternative hypothesis</u>

H0: u = presence of a unit root

HA: u ≠ presence of a unit root  ( i.e. stationary series )

<u>b) performing the test </u>

critical value = -2.88

T stat = coefficient / std error

          = -0.02 / 0.31  = -0.064

c) From the test, the value of T stat > critical value we will reject the Null hypothesis hence the next step will be to accept the alternative hypothesis

d) It is not valid to compare the estimated t stat with the corresponding critical value because a random walk is non-stationary while the difference is stationary because it is white noise

Suppose you know a company's stock currently sells for $90 per share and the required return on the stock is 8 percent. You also
maks197457 [2]

Answer: $3.46

Explanation:

Given the following :

Current share price (P0) = $90 per share

Required return on stock= 8%

total return on the stock is evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield ;

Therefore, Required return on stock= 8% ;

4% capital gain yield + 4% Dividend yield = 8%

Growth rate = 4% = 4/ 100 = 0.04

D1 = D0(1 + g)

D1 = value of next year's Dividend

D0 = current Dividend yield

g = Constant growth rate

D1 = current stock price * g

D1 = 90 * 0.04 = 3.6

D1 = D0(1 + g)

D0 = D1 / (1+g)

D0 = 3.6 / (1+ 0.04)

D0 = 3.6 / 1.04

D0 = $3.46

Assets are 300,000 and equity is 100,000, assets increase 80,000 liabilities increase 50,000. what is equity at year end?
mojhsa [17]
<span>Assets - equity = liabilities
  So liability before the increase is:
 300, 000 - 100, 000 = 200, 000
 And if assets increases by 80, 000. Hence new assets = 380, 000. Liabilities increases by 50, 000; hence new liability = 250, 000.
 New Equity = New Assets - New liability.
 New Equity = 380, 000 - 250, 000 = 130, 000.</span>
