autocorrelation function (ACF)
 

Hi!

wonder if anybody has knowledge of Excel add in that performs
autocorrelation function (ACF) and of the partial autocorrelation
function (PACF).

I need it for excel demonstration of Box Jenkinins Metholody for Arima
models in forecasting.

Thanks

Rado

ACF is easy to implement with worksheet functions SUMPRODUCT and OFFSET, as
shown in Chapter 18, Autocorrelation and Autoregression, of my book Data
Analysis Using Microsoft Excel.

If you do a Google search for "excel autocorrelation partial" (without the
quotes), you'll get numerous links.

Do a Google search on Box Jenkins Excel. There are a few add-ins and an
academic article.

=SUMPRODUCT(OFFSET(data,0,0,70-lag,1)-AVERAGE(data),OFFSET(data,lag,0,70-lag,1)-AVERAGE(data))/DEVSQ(data)

implements the definition of autocorrelation preferred in Box & Jenkins.

P.S.: Jerry is there such a function for PACF too?
