Thank you very much Reinhard, I selected some sotcks in the attached.   ... View more

Thank you very much for the explanation Reinhard. I applied the procedure on my real dataset, got a mix of positive and negative results in both r1 and r2, some missing values as well. I guess it has something to do with the selection of initial value? Any suggestions how to select an initial value that returns the more robust results? (The unknown r I’m looking for is a rate of return, which should be positive numbers and not exceed 1 or 100%.) Thank you again for your help, it's really appreciated. ... View more

Thank you very much Reinhard, I will apply the code on other equations, so trying to understand every bit of the procedure here. I got two questions. First, I understand how c0 (the intercept) is derived. But, having trouble to get C1 to C6. Could you kindly explain it? Second, in the check procedure, s2 is defined as: s2 = s2 + (B[t]+F[t]/2)/u**(t+1); However, the equation has terms of (B[t]+F[t+1]/2)/u**(t+2) rather than (B[t]+F[t]/2)/u**(t+1). Such as, So, I made an attempt to modify by introducing s3, and separate the above terms into two parts (B[t]/u**(t+2), and (F[t]/2)/u**(t+1)) the code becomes: proc fcmp outlib=work.funcs.test; function h(r, p, B[*], F[*], g); u=1+r; s1=p-B[1]; do t=1 to 5; s1 = s1 - F[t]/u**t; end; s2=B[1]/u; do t=1 to 3; s2 = s2 + B[t]/u**(t+2); end; s3 = B[1]/u**2; do t=1 to 4; s3 = s3 + (F[t]/2)/u**(t+1); end; z = s1 + r*s2 + r*s3 - (F[5]+r*B[4])*(1+g)/((r-g)*u**5); return(z); endfunc; run; Is my understanding correct? The diff1 and diff2 values become much bigger after this modification. Thank you. ... View more

Thank you very much Reinhard, F was used to calculate F1 to F5, yes, we can ignore F for this equation. ... View more

yes, I tried and still trying, got error "ERROR 71-185: The xrate function call does not have enough arguments". ... View more
