Solutions-
(a) n: 240
Sample size: 240
Thus, we can say that Li1 and Li2 are both individually significant and also jointly significant.
(b) n: 240

Loglikehood -134.178 -134.126 -130.346 -130.461
Since explained variable and the number of coefficients are the same, we use Mc Fadden
R^2 Value which is calculated as follows:
Mc Fadden R^2 = {1 – log [(b)]}/ log [(b1)] * log[(b1)] = 152.763
R^2 Vlaue = 1-(-134.178/-152.763) = 1- 0.8783 = 0.1217
Li2(-1) Li2(-2)
Li1(-1) 0.1217 0.1220
Li1(-2) 0.1462 0.1460
0.1462 => The model corresponding to this value is the best model according to the
mentioned criteria.
(c) Pgrown = e^0.746 – 0.425 x Li1(-2) – 0.131 x Li1(-1)
1+e^0.746 – 0.429 x Li1(-2) –0.131 x Li2(-1)

The hit rate = sum of diagonal elements (top left to bottom right)
This means that in 75 percent of the cases, this model will give the correct prediction.
(d) n: 240
On comparing the critical value of Augmented Dickey Fuller test with constant and trend,
α = -3.8
0.5080 – The model corresponding to this value is the best performing model.
