Pаrt I:  ARIMA аnd GARCH Mоdelling 1а. Plоt the time series and the ACF fоr all variables and their differenced data (4 plots total for each time series) and comment on their stationarity properties and how it would affect the use of the VAR model.  1b. Divide the data in training and testing sets, using the period January 1980 to October 2022 to train and the last 4 observations for testing, i.e. January 2023 to October 2023.  Using the Interest Rate differenced data, apply the iterative BIC selection process to find the best, *non-trivial* ARIMA-GARCH model order using the ARIMA max orders given by pmax = 5, qmax = 5, d order of max =0 (you are already using differenced data), and max orders given by m=2, n=2 for the GARCH model. Explain how the selected model captures features of the time series. 1c. Evaluate the Box-Ljung test results and the ACF on the residuals and squared residuals from the model you chose in Question 1b. Comment on your results. 1d. Apply the selected model in (1b) and obtain the rolling forecasts for the 4 months of data for 2023. Visualize the predictions versus the observed data and derive the MAPE and PM for each time series. What can you say about the accuracy of the predictions over the two year period? Note: If your model uses the differenced data, you will have to get the predictions for the actual time series data from your forecast outcome. Part II: Multivariate Modeling  2a. Fit a VAR(p) model for p up to an order equal to 8 using the training data. Use the BIC as the order selection criterion. Display the model summary of the selected VAR model. What is the selected order? Is the fitted model stable? Comment on the model results in terms of the significance (at 95% of confidence) of the estimated coefficients and interpret it.  2b. Using the model in Question 2a, evaluate the model's assumptions to ensure its validity, i.e. serial correlation, heteroscedasticity and normality of the residuals. 2c. For the equation that corresponds to Interest Rate, comment on any potential relationships with the other variables. Use a significance level of
