Abstract

El presente documento de carácter investigativo con un tipo de razonamiento inductivo evaluó la relación de causalidad entre el índice de precios al productor (IPP) y el índice de precios al consumidor (IPC) en un periodo de análisis de enero de 1998 a diciembre del 2016. Bajo un paradigma empírico-analítico se utilizó la prueba de raíz unitaria Dickey-Fuller Aumentada – DFA, se generó un modelo de vectores autorregresivos – VAR y se realizó la prueba de causalidad de Granger. Los resultados demuestran una tendencia positiva y estacionalidad en los datos de las variables, se obtuvo un modelo VAR de dos variables con un numero de rezagos óptimo de catorce – VAR2(14) al cual se le realizo la prueba de causalidad demostrando una bidireccionalidad por parte de ambos índices./ The present document is an investigation with a type of inductive reasoning. It evaluated the relationship of causality between the producer price index (IPP), and the consumer price index (IPC ) in a period from January 1998 to December 2016. The unit root test Dickey-Fuller Augmented (DFA) was used under an empirical- analytic paradigm, an autoregressive vector-VAR model was generated and the Granger causality test was performed. The results show a positive trend and seasonality in the data of the variables, a VAR model of two variables was obtained with a number of optimal remnants of fourteen VAR2 (14) to which the causality test was performed, demonstrating a bi - directionality of both indices.
