If \(\left(t_1, y_1\right),\left(t_2, y_2\right)\),...,\(\left(t_n, y_n\right)\) denote the time series and \(y_t\) are the trend values of the variables \(y\), then

  1. A \(\sum_{i=1}^n\left(y_i-y_t\right)=0\)
  2. B \(\sum_{i=1}^n\left(y_i-y_t\right)=1\)
  3. C \(\sum_{i=1}^n\left(y_i-y_t\right)=\infty\)
  4. D \(\sum_{i=1}^n\left(y_i-y_t\right) \neq 0\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\sum_{i=1}^n\left(y_i-y_t\right)=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In the context of time series analysis, when we calculate the trend component \(\left(y_t\right)\) using methods like moving averages or regression, the sum of the deviations (observed values minus trend values) is typically zero. This is because the trend is the best-fitting…
