Question: Consider the following model: R t = β 0 + β 1 M t + β 2 Y t + u 1t Y t =
Rt = β0 + β1Mt + β2Yt + u1t
Yt = α0 + α1Rt + α2 It + u2t
where the variables are as defined in Exercise 20.8. Treating I (domestic investment) and M exogenously, determine the identification of the system. Using the data given in the following table, estimate the parameters of the identified equation(s).
