CFA Practice Question
If we use an AR (1) model to specify a time series (quarterly data), the correct equation that includes a seasonal lag is:
B. xt = b0 + b1 xt-1 + b2 xt-4 + εt.
C. xt = b0 + b1 xt-1 + b2 xt-4.
A. xt = b0 + b1 xt-1 + εt.
B. xt = b0 + b1 xt-1 + b2 xt-4 + εt.
C. xt = b0 + b1 xt-1 + b2 xt-4.
