Applied Econometrics Using the SAS System

This supplemental text is a handy guide for researchers, students, and practitioners on the fundamentals of econometric theory and more importantly, it provides complete SAS code for analyzing data from various studies where econometric data is collected.

This text is a great supplement to some of the standard econometric texts that are currently used in academia, since the standard econometric texts rarely offer guidelines on how to analyze data using standard software. 

While most students of econometrics are taught through the use of GAUSS and STATA, statisticians and econometricians in industry find that the use of SAS for the analysis of econometric data is the standard.  This book better prepares students for their careers in industry, and it also is the only available guide for professionals in the field of econometrics who use SAS. 

Written by a proficient SAS user, the book includes thorough coverage of econometric data analysis problems programmed in SAS as well as some limited coverage of SAS IML.  SAS IML is used only when the need arises.
