This disk contains various time-series and cross-section data
used in the numerical examples in the text. They are also
used in some of the problems at the end of each chapter.
The disk also includes program codes to do some of the simulation
exercises in chapter 11. Instructors and students may devise
further exercises in applied econometrics involving these data.
In this disk there are seven subdirectories. Each subdirectory is
labeled CHAP# corresponding to the relevant chapter in the book.
The subdirectory CHAP1013 contains Current Population Survey Data
used in the text in Chapters 10-13 (This data is also used in Chapter 6.)
Each subdirectory contains its own README.DOC file describing the
data contained in that subdirectory. We use the notation
NSA: not seasonally adjusted
SA: seasonally adjusted
SAAR: seasonally adjusted at an annual rate
The data files come in several forms. Each form has its own file
name extension.
.ASC ascii files with a one line header describing the series names
.WF1 EViews formatted workfiles (binary)
.PRG EViews (2.0) program files (ascii)
