EViews.com

I am using Eviews 8 and I am getting an overflow/error message when I am estimating an exponential trend. I have typed the following equation under the quick tab using LS. (r is the independent variable and t=1,2,... is the time trend) Please find my workfile attached.
r c(1)*exp(c(2)*t)

It would be great if someone could help with this problem

You're missing an equals sign

Thanks Gareth. Even with the = it does not work.
I've even tried typing ls r = c(1)*exp(c(2)*t) in the command window

I redid the exercise and it says "Near Singular Matrix Error. Regressors may be perfectly collinear"

Try typing
before you do the estimate

Thanks but does this solve the singularity issue? What is the basis for selecting c?

Just choose something other than zero. It should remove the singularity error.
