a) Consider the following moving average process, MA(2): Yt = ut + α1ut-1 + α2ut-2 where ut is a white noise process, with E(ut)=0, var(ut)=σ2 and cov(ut,us)=0 . Derive the mean, E(Yt), the variance, var(Yt), and the covariances cov( Yt,Yt+1 ) and cov(Yt,Yt+2 ), of this process. b) Give a definition of a (covariance) stationary time series process. Is the MA(2) process (covariance) stationary?
