Abstract:

Models with regression mean functions and seasonal ARIMA disturbances are heavily used by the seasonal adjustment community. We will describe, and show empirical results for, a new regression model for trading day effects in inventory (stock) series and a new class of seasonal ARIMA models. The new regression model is a constrained form of the stock trading day model of Bell (1984) obtained by imposing constraints on the flow series trading day coefficients, a procedure for which we have developed general methods. The new ARIMA models decompose the seasonal moving average factor of Box-Jenkins seasonal models into a product of two or three factors, each with its own coefficient, which is associated with a subset of the frequencies, 0, 1, ., 6 cycles per year.
