2.9 TIME SERIES MODEL
There are types by which the involvement or component interests to give rise to time series.
The multiplicative model
The additive model
MULTIPLICATIVE MODEL
Y_t=S_t×T_t×C_t×I_t
The steps are
Compute T_t (using method of least square method), since this will keep both C_t×I_t intact in the series and avoid unnecessary mixing up of value of data at the beginning and at the end.
Compute S.V using Y_t=S_t×T_t×C_t×I_t
Compute Y_t/(T_t S_t )
Apply an order 3 or 4 M.A. method (it is hope that during process, it would be removed).
The result (iv) is the cyclical variation.
ADDITIVE MODELS
The additive models of the time series i.e.
Y_t=S_t+T_t+C_t+I_t
This leads to (by interchanging of variable)
S_t=Y_t-T_t-(C_t+I_t ) or S_t=Y_t-T_t- Residual value
The steps are
Calculate T_t (trend) value using suitable M.A. method
Subtract T_i value from Y (observed value)
Find quarterly total and mean after arranging the M.A in their respective periods.
We have unadjusted seasonal variation (S.V) to be adjusted
Find the grand mean if the sum of the mean S.V in (iv) is not equal to zero.
Get the absolute value of /Q.M – G.M/
The result in (vi) are the adjusted S.V for each group which sum must be equal to zero.
