33 APPENDIX A. Interpolation of Private Sector Foreign Debt The recording of private sector foreign debt in quarterly format first started to be done in 1992-Q2, while previously the data was yearly. Because of that, data interpolation needs to be done from 1992-Q1 up to 1999-Q1. As a proxy, the growth pattern of PMTB investment (Gross Fixed Capital Formation) is chosen, either real or nominal growth with the following results: Panel 1. Interpolation results at Panel 2. Interpolation results in level growth (yoy) Chart A.1. Interpolation using Nominal Investment (DSTA Data) Panel 1. Interpolation results at Panel 2. Interpolation results in level growth (yoy) Chart A.2. Interpolation using Nominal Investment (SOFIE Data) 33

34 Panel 1. Interpolation results at Panel 2. Interpolation results in level growth (yoy) Chart A.3. Interpolation using Real Investment (SOFIE Data) The interpolation which is selected is the first one, using nominal SOFIE data, because its results are closest to yearly private sector foreign debt data. B. Bry-Boschan Coding Matlab code which was developed by Rand and Tarp (2002) already accommodates the use of monthly, quarterly, and yearly data. In the original code, the Bry-Boschan algorithm can only be used for the short term cycle with the wavelength (the distance from the peak to the peak or trough to trough) and phase (the distance from the trough to peak or peak to trough) which has already been specified for monthly, quarterly, and yearly data. Specifically for the purposes of this study, modifications were only done to quarterly data, so that the code can be used for a variety of different phases and cycles. In general, the main algorithm that is used is still the same as the original code, except in the weighting which is used in the Spencer curve. Following Everts (2006), the weighting in the Spencer curve that is used is 1/35 [-3,12,17,12,-3]. Everts (2006) stated that Harding and Pagan used 15-point smoothing of the Spencer curve, which is actually more suitable for monthly data. The complete program code is as follows: 34
