Assume That You Had Found Correlation of the Residuals Across

question 17

Essay

Assume that you had found correlation of the residuals across observations.This may
happen because the regressor is ordered by size.Your regression model could therefore
be specified as follows: Yi=β0+β1Xi+uiui=ρui1+vi;ρ<1.\begin{array} { c } Y _ { i } = \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } X _ { i } + u _ { i } \\u _ { i } = \rho u _ { i - 1 } + v _ { i } ; | \rho | < 1 .\end{array}
Furthermore, assume that you had obtained consistent estimates for β0,β1,ρ\beta _ { 0 } , \beta _ { 1 } , \rho . If asked to make a prediction for YY , given a value of X(=Xj)X \left( = X _ { j } \right) and u^j1\hat { u } _ { j - 1 } , how would you proceed? Would you use the information on the lagged residual at all? Why or why not?
