Hurricane Analysis

The analysis of the effect on time series and US gas , Gulf gas, Cap, stocks in term of the Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data

Data and methodology

Data

This paper used randomization processes in publishing statistical abstract from the TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data under Jan 7, 2000 to Dec 29, 2006.

The US gas is average price of wholesale gasoline in US, gulfgas is price of wholesale gas in Gulf Coast, Cap is refinery capacity utilization, Stock is total US gasoline stocks, and katdummy and ivandummy are dummy variables for the time period where Hurricanes Katrina and Ivan occurred was used for the computation of the effect.

From Jan 7, 2000 to Dec 29, 2006 the researcher examined the value of crude ratio. Approximately the number of weeks were calculated as 365. The researcher cluster the variables based on US and Gulf Coast gasoline price. The ratio of the different variables were calculated to suit the model.

Methodology

The researcher investigated if there is no significant effect on crude ratio and US gas , Gulf gas, Cap, stocks in term of the Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data under Jan 7, 2000 to Dec 29, 2006. The researcher also used Frequency distribution and analysis of variance (ANOVA) . The Multiple Regression was to test heteroskedasticity of the elastic variables. The computation of the analysis of variance of US and Gulf Coast was also used for differentiation and analysis of the data. The researcher also computed the Mean Square Error, Standard Error of Estimate and the Multiple coefficient of determination. The result of this findings will testify the goodness of the predictors of this study.

RESULTS

This section presents the analysis of the data on the study to find out if there is no significant effect on time series and US gas , Gulf gas, Cap, stocks in term of the Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data.

The descriptive statistics was also used in this study for the presentation purposes. Tables 1 to 2 show the significant effect on time series and US gas , Gulf gas, Cap, stocks in term of the Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data under Jan 7, 2000 to Dec 29, 2006.

From Graph 1 , the researcher found out that majority of the elasticity have no changes except on IVAN elasticity and US gas ratio. US gas ratio has slightly affected by the hurricane , this can be seen in week 301. It was notable that the Ivan data has remarkable change in terms of time series under weeks 241 to 271 and 301. This implies that there is a small probability of risk for the investors to invest in the gasoline stock market.

It can be gleaned in Graph 2 that Gulf gas ratio has slightly affected by the hurricane, this can be seen in weeks 291 to 320. It shows that the Ivan data has remarkable change in terms of time series under weeks 233 to 262 and 291 to 320. This reveals that there is a slight effect on time series and Gulf gas, in term of the Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data under Jan 7, 2000 to Dec 29, 2006. This factor has slight effect on the economic process of the country. This leads the other businessmen to transfer for another countries or ship for another business.

This paper examined the analysis of variance for US ratio and Gulf Coast ratio to identify the elasticity of the other variables in relation with the crude ratio.

The Analysis of Variance was used to determine if there is no significant effect on crude ratio and US gas ratio, Gulf gas ratio, Cap ratio, stocks ratio ,Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1informational data. The result of the “Analysis of Variance” (ANOVA) shows that the value of compute F is greater than the tabulated F under US gasoline price. The computed value of F is 51.989 while the tabulated F is 2.21. This implies that there is a significant effect on Gulf Coast gasoline stock price in the existence of Katrina and Ivan Hurricanes because null hypothesis is rejected. And the result of the “Analysis of Variance” (ANOVA) of Gulf Coast gasoline also shows that the value of compute F is greater than the tabulated F . The computed value of F is 50.156 while the tabulated F is 2.21. This implies that there is a significant effect on US gasoline stock price in the existence of Katrina and Ivan Hurricanes because null hypothesis is rejected.

The Regression results are as follows: the unbiased estimator of the variance of the error in the multiple regression model is equal to .001. There is small value of MSE so the estimator is a good fit of the regression. Standard error of estimate is equal to 0.03145. Multiple coefficient of determination is .420 and an adjusted multiple coefficient of determination is equal to .412 showed that the data produced a good predictions.

The unbiased estimator of the variance of the error in the multiple regression model is equal to 0.001. There is a small value of MSE so the estimator of elasticity is a good fit of the regression. Standard error of estimate is equal to 0.3169. Multiple coefficient of determination is 0.411 and adjusted multiple coefficient of determination is equal to .403 showed that the data produced a good predictions.

Summary of the two multiple regression, the two findings reveals that the variables present in this study were good predictors of the gasoline stock price. This implies that even though there is a hurricane in the said countries the value of elasticity will remain controlled.

conclusion:

In this paper, the researcher empirically examined the success of the comparison between US and Gulf Coast gasoline stock price and the researcher investigated if there is no significant effect on crude ratio and US gas , Gulf gas, Cap, stocks in term of the Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data under Jan 7, 2000 to Dec 29, 2006. The researcher also used Frequency distribution and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The computation of the analysis of variance of US and Gulf Coast was also used for differentiation and analysis of the data.

This paper examined the two countries that probably affected by the hurricane Katrina and Ivan. The two countries that are under this study were US and Gulf Coast.

The researcher discovered that there if there is a significant effect on crude ratio and US gas ratio , Gulf gas ratio, Cap ratio, stocks ratio, Hurricane Katrina and Ivan TSP_Sample_econometric_1 informational data under Jan 7, 2000 to Dec 29, 2006.

This means that other variables can affect the flaws of the gasoline stock price. The researcher suggested the additional parameters for the greater accuracy of the model.
