3.5 Analysis Method

Analysis methods that used in this research are Cointergration Test and Vector Error Correction Model VECM to see the relationship of seven non-stationer variables in short-term and long-term. Data and model in this research is in Ln form, where the estimation result can show the elasticity because the result in the same unit such as, percentage, so that the relationship among variables are more rationale. ϯϵ According to Sims 1992 in Ajija 2007 impulse response function IRF illustrates the expectation of future period from variable forecast deviation due to other variable innovation effects. It exposes the existence of shock variable to other variable until its equilibrium point. Variance decomposition of forecast error variance decomposition becomes an instrument of VAR that separate the estimated variable to be shock variable or innovation variable; where it assumes that the innovation variable do not correlate each others. The variance decomposition analysis provides information of the movement of shock variable to certain variables and so to another shock variable.
