Hi, can you tell me how should I obtain eigenvalues?
I am using table 2.1, I estimate equation
lnoutput c lncapital lnlabor
and I obtain these results


Gujarati's books says that I should get maximum value of 187.5269 and the lowest eigenvalue of 3.786.

can you give me instructions how to get the mentioned eigenvalue numbers.
Thanks

Can you offer a full reference for the Gujarati result?

if you mean on the book name, it is Basic Econometrics, 5th international edition, page 358. I want to calculate condition number k, in order to check multicolinearity...


it says, for the example in 7A.5....

As an aside, why do you want to check for multicollinearity?

in order just to learn how to use E-views..

Can't argue with that!

We don't have Gujarati 5th edition here. Can you provide additional detail/data on App. 7A5.

Sure. I have these two pages.. on the start there is a file. I want to obtain eigenvalues, in order to get k, which tells me about multicolinearity.

I'm afraid I'm going to need more than that. I hunted around and couldn't find the data associated with this example.

Do you have the data that you used in the example? And a more complete description of the eigenvalue computation that you are trying to match?

[Edit: I didn't notice that the Excel file you posted matches the first columns of the data. The variable names are different between the two. So I can match the equation results, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm still not sure what eigenvalue calculation is being performed. ]
