yearly weights

[tvonbrasch]

Hi

I have a quarterly model

Code: Select all

p=w1*p1+w2*p2

where the weigths w1 and w2 are supposed to be the last years average (or sum) of a series V1 and V2, respectively, i.e.,

for the first quarter

Code: Select all

w1=v1(-1)+v1(-2)+v1(-3)+v1(-4)

for the second quarter

Code: Select all

w1=v1(-2)+v1(-3)+v1(-4)+v1(-5)

for the third quarter

Code: Select all

w1=v1(-3)+v1(-4)+v1(-5)+v1(-6)

for the forth quarter

Code: Select all

w1=v1(-4)+v1(-5)+v1(-6)+v1(-7)

How can this best be implemented in a model object in Eviews, i.e. as a single equation for w1?
