Q7 (10 points):
1. Simulate a series of n = 500 observations (use your student id as a seed) from the process
xt = 31 (wt−1 + wt + wt+1 ), where wt is Gaussian white noise series and use R to compute
the sample ACF, ρ̂(h), h = 0, 1, 2, 3. Compare the sample ACF you obtain to the actual
(theoretical) ACF, ρ(h).
2. Repeat part (1) using only n = 50. How does changing n affect the results?
