d) Which model is the most appropriate, using adjusted r2 values and first, second, and percentage differences.
Question 3: Refer to the data set given in file.
a) Fit a third-order autoregressive model to the DJIA and test for the significance of the third-order autoregressive parameter using ? = 0.05.
b) If necessary, fit a second-order autoregressive model to the DJIA and test for the significance of the second-order autoregressive parameter using α = 0.05.
c) If necessary, fit a first-order autoregressive model to the DJIA and test for the significance of the first-order autoregressive parameter using α = 0.05.
d) Using the most appropriate model in a) - c), forecast the closing values for 2009 and 2010.
