## data
data("USGasG", package = "AER")

## Greene (2003)
## Example 2.3
fm <- lm(log(gas/population) ~ log(price) + log(income) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar),
  data = as.data.frame(USGasG))
summary(fm)

## Example 4.4
## estimates and standard errors (note different offset for intercept)
coef(fm)
sqrt(diag(vcov(fm)))
## confidence interval
confint(fm, parm = "log(income)")
## test linear hypothesis
linearHypothesis(fm, "log(income) = 1")

## Figure 7.5
plot(price ~ gas, data = as.data.frame(USGasG), pch = 19,
  col = (time(USGasG) > 1973) + 1)
legend("topleft", legend = c("after 1973", "up to 1973"), pch = 19, col = 2:1, bty = "n")

## Example 7.6
## re-used in Example 8.3
## linear time trend
ltrend <- 1:nrow(USGasG)
## shock factor
shock <- factor(time(USGasG) > 1973, levels = c(FALSE, TRUE), labels = c("before", "after"))

## 1960-1995
fm1 <- lm(log(gas/population) ~ log(income) + log(price) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar) + ltrend,
  data = as.data.frame(USGasG))
summary(fm1)
## pooled
fm2 <- lm(
  log(gas/population) ~ shock + log(income) + log(price) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar) + ltrend,
  data = as.data.frame(USGasG))
summary(fm2)
## segmented
fm3 <- lm(
  log(gas/population) ~ shock/(log(income) + log(price) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar) + ltrend),
  data = as.data.frame(USGasG))
summary(fm3)

## Chow test
anova(fm3, fm1)
library("strucchange")
sctest(log(gas/population) ~ log(income) + log(price) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar) + ltrend,
  data = USGasG, point = c(1973, 1), type = "Chow")
## Recursive CUSUM test
rcus <- efp(log(gas/population) ~ log(income) + log(price) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar) + ltrend,
   data = USGasG, type = "Rec-CUSUM")
plot(rcus)
sctest(rcus)
## Note: Greene's remark that the break is in 1984 (where the process crosses its boundary)
## is wrong. The break appears to be no later than 1976.

## Example 12.2
library("dynlm")
resplot <- function(obj, bound = TRUE) {
  res <- residuals(obj)
  sigma <- summary(obj)$sigma
  plot(res, ylab = "Residuals", xlab = "Year")

  abline(h = 0)
  if(bound) abline(h = c(-2, 2) * sigma, col = "red")  
  lines(res)
}
resplot(dynlm(log(gas/population) ~ log(price), data = USGasG))
resplot(dynlm(log(gas/population) ~ log(price) + log(income), data = USGasG))
resplot(dynlm(log(gas/population) ~ log(price) + log(income) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar) +
  log(transport) + log(nondurable) + log(durable) +log(service) + ltrend, data = USGasG))
## different shock variable than in 7.6
shock <- factor(time(USGasG) > 1974, levels = c(FALSE, TRUE), labels = c("before", "after"))
resplot(dynlm(log(gas/population) ~ shock/(log(price) + log(income) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar) +
  log(transport) + log(nondurable) + log(durable) + log(service) + ltrend), data = USGasG))
## NOTE: something seems to be wrong with the sigma estimates in the `full' models

## Table 12.4, OLS
fm <- dynlm(log(gas/population) ~ log(price) + log(income) + log(newcar) + log(usedcar),
  data = USGasG)
summary(fm)
resplot(fm, bound = FALSE)
dwtest(fm)

## ML
g <- as.data.frame(USGasG)
y <- log(g$gas/g$population)
X <- as.matrix(cbind(log(g$price), log(g$income), log(g$newcar), log(g$usedcar)))

## US macroeconomic data (1950-2000) ##
#######################################
## data and trend
data("USMacroG", package = "AER")
ltrend <- 0:(nrow(USMacroG) - 1)

## Example 5.3
## OLS and IV regression
library("dynlm")
fm_ols <- dynlm(consumption ~ gdp, data = USMacroG)
fm_iv <- dynlm(consumption ~ gdp | L(consumption) + L(gdp), data = USMacroG)

## Hausman statistic
library("MASS")
b_diff <- coef(fm_iv) - coef(fm_ols)
v_diff <- summary(fm_iv)$cov.unscaled - summary(fm_ols)$cov.unscaled
(t(b_diff) %*% ginv(v_diff) %*% b_diff) / summary(fm_ols)$sigma^2

## Wu statistic
auxreg <- dynlm(gdp ~ L(consumption) + L(gdp), data = USMacroG)
coeftest(dynlm(consumption ~ gdp + fitted(auxreg), data = USMacroG))[3,3] 
## agrees with Greene (but not with errata)

## Example 6.1
## Table 6.1
fm6.1 <- dynlm(log(invest) ~ tbill + inflation + log(gdp) + ltrend, data = USMacroG)
fm6.3 <- dynlm(log(invest) ~ I(tbill - inflation) + log(gdp) + ltrend, data = USMacroG)
summary(fm6.1)
summary(fm6.3)
deviance(fm6.1)
deviance(fm6.3)
vcov(fm6.1)[2,3] 

## F test
linearHypothesis(fm6.1, "tbill + inflation = 0")
## alternatively
anova(fm6.1, fm6.3)
## t statistic
sqrt(anova(fm6.1, fm6.3)[2,5])
 
## Example 6.3
## Distributed lag model:
## log(Ct) = b0 + b1 * log(Yt) + b2 * log(C(t-1)) + u
us <- log(USMacroG[, c(2, 5)])
fm_distlag <- dynlm(log(consumption) ~ log(dpi) + L(log(consumption)),
  data = USMacroG)
summary(fm_distlag)

## estimate and test long-run MPC 
coef(fm_distlag)[2]/(1-coef(fm_distlag)[3])
linearHypothesis(fm_distlag, "log(dpi) + L(log(consumption)) = 1")
## correct, see errata
 
## Example 6.4
## predict investiment in 2001(1)
predict(fm6.1, interval = "prediction",
  newdata = data.frame(tbill = 4.48, inflation = 5.262, gdp = 9316.8, ltrend = 204))

## Example 7.7
## no GMM available in "strucchange"
## using OLS instead yields
fs <- Fstats(log(m1/cpi) ~ log(gdp) + tbill, data = USMacroG,
  vcov = NeweyWest, from = c(1957, 3), to = c(1991, 3))
plot(fs)
## which looks somewhat similar ...
 
## Example 8.2
## Ct = b0 + b1*Yt + b2*Y(t-1) + v
fm1 <- dynlm(consumption ~ dpi + L(dpi), data = USMacroG)
## Ct = a0 + a1*Yt + a2*C(t-1) + u
fm2 <- dynlm(consumption ~ dpi + L(consumption), data = USMacroG)

## Cox test in both directions:
coxtest(fm1, fm2)
## ... and do the same for jtest() and encomptest().
## Notice that in this particular case two of them are coincident.
jtest(fm1, fm2)
encomptest(fm1, fm2)
## encomptest could also be performed `by hand' via
fmE <- dynlm(consumption ~ dpi + L(dpi) + L(consumption), data = USMacroG)
waldtest(fm1, fmE, fm2)

## Table 9.1
fm_ols <- lm(consumption ~ dpi, data = as.data.frame(USMacroG))
fm_nls <- nls(consumption ~ alpha + beta * dpi^gamma,
  start = list(alpha = coef(fm_ols)[1], beta = coef(fm_ols)[2], gamma = 1),
  control = nls.control(maxiter = 100), data = as.data.frame(USMacroG))
summary(fm_ols)
summary(fm_nls)
deviance(fm_ols)
deviance(fm_nls)

## Example 9.7
## F test
fm_nls2 <- nls(consumption ~ alpha + beta * dpi,
  start = list(alpha = coef(fm_ols)[1], beta = coef(fm_ols)[2]),
  control = nls.control(maxiter = 100), data = as.data.frame(USMacroG))
anova(fm_nls, fm_nls2)
## Wald test
linearHypothesis(fm_nls, "gamma = 1")

## Example 9.8, Table 9.2
usm <- USMacroG[, c("m1", "tbill", "gdp")]
fm_lin <- lm(m1 ~ tbill + gdp, data = usm)
fm_log <- lm(m1 ~ tbill + gdp, data = log(usm))
## PE auxiliary regressions
aux_lin <- lm(m1 ~ tbill + gdp + I(fitted(fm_log) - log(fitted(fm_lin))), data = usm)
aux_log <- lm(m1 ~ tbill + gdp + I(fitted(fm_lin) - exp(fitted(fm_log))), data = log(usm))
coeftest(aux_lin)[4,]
coeftest(aux_log)[4,]
## matches results from errata
## With lmtest >= 0.9-24:
## petest(fm_lin, fm_log)

## Example 12.1
fm_m1 <- dynlm(log(m1) ~ log(gdp) + log(cpi), data = USMacroG)
summary(fm_m1)
