The Univariate Case Consider a univariate series: yt = ρyt-1 + vt
– The series is subject to a shock of size v in
period 1
– At time t = 1 following the shock, the value of y
in period 1 and subsequent periods will be:
t 1, y1 y0 v1 v
t 2, y2 y1 v
t 3, y3 y2 (y1 ) 2 v
...
the shock is v, v, 2 v,

Univariate Analysis Consider a univariate series: yt = ρyt-1 + vt
– The best one-step-ahead forecast (alternatively
the forecast one period ahead) is:
yt yt 1 vt
ytF1 Et [yt vt 1 ]
yt 1 Et [ yt 1 ] yt 1 yt vt 1
yt 2 Et [ yt 2 ] yt 2 2 yt vt 1 vt 2

Bivariate Analysis We can perform a variance decomposition for our
special bivariate example where there is no
identification problem
– Ignoring the intercepts (since they are
constants), the one–step ahead forecasts are:
ytF1 Et [11 yt 12 xt vty1 ] 11 yt 12 xt
xtF1 Et [ 21 yt 22 xt vtx1 ] 21 yt 22 xt
FE1y yt 1 Et [ yt 1 ] vty1 ; var( FE1y ) 2y
