PLEASE an Urgent Situation
Hi, all thank you in advance for help
I am new EViews user (7.2), currently I am working to solve macroeconometric model, which consists of 38 endogenous equations, 16 of which are stochastic while the rest are identities. I want to solve the whole model to test its predictive ability, using stochastic simulation, and I need to use the conventional criteria such as (MAE, RMSE, MAPE, the Theil inequality coefficient), but I could do that, because I do not find how. In the single equation, I can do from the equation widow, where the forecast option is available in that window.
Could you please help me, I am in an urgent situation.
Thank you again
Hussein

There is nothing built in that will show you those values automatically. However there are functions that can calculate them for two series. For example you can type:

to show the RMSE between the series Y and the series Y_1.

Thank you very much, but what about the rest cretira (MAE , MAPE, the Theil inequality coefficient)
I am very happy and thank you very much for the quick reply.

Dear Gareth
Thank you again, you provided me a great favor.
Best regards

I am so sorry,
but it does not work
Could you please write the full command for me, my data series 1970 2006
the variables are pcer and pcer_0
thank you

=@mae(pcer, pcer_0)


I apologize, it seems that I disturbed you, but I wrote this command at the command window
mapcer=@mae(pcer, pcer_0)
Is it true, if it is incorrect, what is the correct?
Where can I find the result?

if you wish to store the result in a scalar, called mapcer, then:

Thank you so much Gareth

Hi Gareth
Could you please show me how can I calculate the root mean squared percent error rmspe.
thank you inadvance

There is nothing built in to calculate that statistic. You'll have to calculate it manually.
