If I plot my data in excel and go for an exponential trendline, the coefficients of the resulting equation I get match the coefficients I get from this equation: LOG(MICE_1) = COEF(3) + COEF(4)*OBSERVATION However, I was thinking that the exponential trendline for my data in excel (of the form y = a...

Hi, I am new to using Eviews. I want to fit my data to an exponential curve: y = a*e^(bx). I am running the regression using two methods: 1. MICE_1= COEF(1)*(EXP(COEF(2)*OBSERVATION)) 2. LOG(MICE_1) = COEF(3) + COEF(4)*OBSERVATION Since, both equations are the same, coef(2)=coef(4) and coef(1)= exp(...
