Prof. Ke Pang
Data Assignment
(Due February 7 at noon in MyLS dropbox)
The data assignment is worth 15% of the course grade. You can work individually or in a team of two to three
students. If you work in a team, only one team member needs to submit the assignment in MyLS. You can choose
any statistical software to use. Please

  • hand in one static PDF file in which you explain how the calculations are done and answer all the questions;
  • submit one data file for each question which contains all the data used in that question;
  • detailed calculations can be included in the individual data file for each question or handed in separately
    depending on the software used; the goal is that TA and I can easily duplicate your results;
  • name your files starting with the last name(s) followed by the file description:
    e.g., LastName(s)_
    Data.xls, LastName(s)_
    Answers.pdf, and LastName(s)_Calculation.do.
    For students who work individually, include your full name and student number on the cover of the PDF file. For
    students who work in teams, include the full names and student numbers of all team members on the cover of
    the PDF file.

    2018Q1 – 2023Q3).

    Part A:
    1) Calculate the cumulative change in the total asset position from the beginning of 2018Q1 to the end
    of 2023Q3.
    2) Calculate the cumulative changes in the total asset position due to financial account transactions,
    due to exchange rate changes, due to market price changes, and due to data revisions (i.e., all other
    changes to position), respectively, over the entire sample period.
    3) Calculate the cumulative change in the total liability position from the beginning of 2018Q1 to the
    end of 2023Q3.
    4) Calculate the cumulative changes in the total liability position due to financial account transactions,
    due to exchange rate changes, due to market price changes, and due to data revisions (i.e., all other
    changes to position), respectively, over the entire sample period.

    account transactions, due to exchange rate changes, due to market price changes, and due to data
    revisions (i.e., all other changes to position), respectively, over the entire sample period.
    7) Create a bar chart and comment on the importance of cumulative financial account transactions,
    exchange rate changes, market price changes, and data revisions (i.e., all other changes to position)

    from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
    7) Create three seperate bar charts, which show the importance of financial account transactions,
    exchange rate changes, market price changes, and data revisions (i.e., all other changes to position)
    in determining the annual changes in total asset position, total liability position, and net
    international investment position, respectively, for each year over the period of 2018-2022.
    8) Comment on the potential driving factors on the annual changes observed.
  5. Visit BEA at
    https://apps.bea.gov/iTable/?ReqID=62&step=1#eyJhcHBpZCI6NjIsInN0ZXBzIjpbMSwyXSwiZGF0YSI6W1

    3) Construct a time series of return differential (i.e., 𝑟𝑟𝐴𝐴
    − 𝑟𝑟𝐿𝐿) using the methodology explained in
    subsection 1.7.2. Assume that 𝑟𝑟𝐿𝐿 is equal to the rate of return on one-year U.S. treasury bonds
    (download the market yield on 1-Year U.S. Treasury Securities at
    https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/RIFLGFCY01NA).
    4) Discuss the plausibility of the dark matter hypothesis based on its size and its volatility over time.
