The asymptotic distribution of the least-squares estimators in the random walk model was first found by White [17] and is described in terms of functional of Brownian motion with no closed form expression known. Evans and Savin [5,6] and others have examined numerically both the asymptotic and...

Dealing with noninvertible, infinite-order moving average (MA) models, we study the asymptotic properties of an estimator of the noninvertible coefficient. The estimator is constructed acting as if the data were generated from a Gaussian MA process. Allowing for two cases on the initial values...
