Modelling Factors Affecting Internally Generated Funds of the Tamale Metropolitan Assembly of Ghana Using Multivariate Analysis Techniques
The study was carried out to model factors that affect the Internally Generated Funds of the Tamale Metropolitan Assembly using Factor and Confirmatory Factor analysis. The study involved 403 categories of respondents using probability and non-probability sampling techniques. The results from the Factor analysis confirmed a four-factor structure model to accurately represent the observed data without substantial loss of information. The Factor an…
Bayesian Switching Volatility Models for Analysing Stock Returns in Ghana
The goal of this research was to use Bayesian switching volatility models to model the stock returns of the GCB, bank in Ghana. Monthly stock prices of GCB bank for the period of 138 months were used for the study. The two-state Markov-Switching GARCH models were used in the study to determine the best model for modelling and forecasting the stock returns. The Deviance Information Criteria was considered when selecting the best model. Based on th…
Tweedie Regression Analysis of Determinants of Birth Weight in Navrongo
The study modelled and investigated the determinants of infant birth weight by considering maternal and infant factors as predictors. Monthly data spanning for a period of 37 months were obtained from the Navrongo Health Research Centre of the Navrongo Municipality of the Upper East region of Ghana. In modelling the birth weight of infants, the Tweedie regression model and its counterparts of exponential families (Gaussian, Gamma and inverse Gaus…
