Mаth 101 Finаl Exаm (Spring 2022).pdf Once yоu оpen the exam, yоu have up to two hours to finish the exam. Once you finish the exam, you have 10 minutes to upload your work. You are expected to show all work. A correct answer will receive zero credit if there is insufficient work to back up your solution. Honorlock will not allow you to print the exam. You should handwrite your solutions on regular notebook paper. You do not need to write down the questions.

ARIMA Mоdeling аnd Fоrecаsting (33 Pоints) 2а. Fit an ARMA model using the residuals from the model in 1d. Find the order of the ARMA model using a max order 6 for p and q, and 1 for d. Use AICc as the criterion for the order selection. What are the selected orders? Perform a residual analysis for the selected model, and plot the ACF, PACF and QQ-plot of the model residuals. Test for serial correlation of the residual process. Comment on your findings on the model fit. (10 pts) 2b. Split the original data into training and test datasets designating the last 4 data points as test data and the rest as training data. Fit an SARIMA model to the training dataset using ARIMA orders (3,2,5) and seasonal orders (1,0,1). Forecast the next four time points (test dataset) using the **4 lags ahead approach**. Overlay the observed versus predicted values for both series, including 95% confidence intervals. Calculate the MAPE of the prediction and comment on the prediction performance of the model. (10 pts) 2c. Apply the trend-seasonality model from 1d on the training data set from the previous question to 4 lags ahead of the Personal Consumption Expenditures. Calculate the MAPE. How do these predictions compare with the predictions from 2b? (10 pts) Hints: Keep in mind that modeling factors may require extra steps on the data preparation. To predict, you may want to rename the columns of your training data, you could use: setnames(your_data, old = c(), new = c()). You can use predict, or predict.gam for your predictions. 2d. Based on your analysis above, would you recommend using seasonal ARIMA modeling to forecast quarterly Personal Consumption Expenditures for the US? Why or why not? What other recommendations (if any) would you make to decision makers using seasonal ARIMA modeling to forecast quarterly Personal Consumption Expenditures for the US? (3 pts)
