Abstract

A periodic autoregressive time-series model assumes that the autoregressive parameters vary with the season. This model can also be represented by a multivariate model for the annual vector containing the seasonal observations. When this multivariate model contains one unit root, a time-series is said to be periodically integrated of order 1. In this paper we propose tests for such a single unit root. These tests for periodic integration are applied to a periodic model for the quarterly German consumption series.
