A Distribution Generating Equation for Unit-Root Statistics

  • Abadir, Karim M

Abstract

A unified framework to derive the distribution of conventional statistics under a unit root is presented. It is based on formulae which can generate (analytically as well as numerically) the densities and distributions of statistics such as the t ratio, the normalized autocorrelation coefficient, and many more. The name density (or distribution) generating equation is given to these formulae. As a practical example, the numerical and analytical aspects of the distribution of the t ratio under a unit root are discussed. Suggestions for further applications and extensions of these formulae are also given. Copyright 1992 by Blackwell Publishing Ltd
