A Multiperiod Regression Forecast H Periods into the Future Based

question 3

Multiple Choice

A multiperiod regression forecast h periods into the future based on an AR(p) is computed

• A)the same way as the iterated AR forecast.
• B)by estimating the multiperiod regression Y_t = δ₀ + δ₁Y_t-h + ... + δ_pY_t-p-h+1 + u_t, then using the estimated coefficients to compute the forecast h periods in advance.
• C)by estimating the multiperiod regression Y_t = δ₀ + δ₁Y_t-h + u_t , then using the estimate coefficients to compute the forecast h period in advance.
• D)by first computing the one-period ahead forecast, next using that to compute the two-period ahead forecast, and so forth.
