  1. Done on EViews 12
  2. We specified lags at four by minimum AIC Exogenous variables: individual effects, individual linear trends. The notation "***" implies the statistical significance at 1% level. Fisher tests are computed using an asymptotic Chi-square distribution. Values in the parentheses (.) are the p value. All other tests assume asymptotic normality. When carrying out the test as well as the estimation, all variables are formed in natural logarithm
