  abstract: Much of the work on business cycles in the literature is
  abstract: based on the use of seasonally adjusted or annual data. The
  abstract: research done in this dissertation breaks with this tradition
  abstract: by attempting to provide a unified explanation of the trend,
  abstract: cyclical, and seasonal movements exhibited in U.S.
  abstract: macroeconomic data. This is accomplished by examining the
  abstract: statistical nature of the seasonal fluctuations in the data,
  abstract: and then building models that incorporate these seasonals in
  abstract: a manner consistent with economic theory and sound
  abstract: statistical practice. These statistical models are used to
  abstract: examine some of the economic relationships of interest to
  abstract: macroeconomists, such as the relationship between
  abstract: consumption, investment and income, and the relationship
  abstract: between money demand and income. The results obtained from
  abstract: these models indicate that seasonal fluctuations have
  abstract: important implications for economic theory and econometric
  abstract: modelling, as they differ in some cases from the results
  abstract: given by similar models which are based on seasonally
  abstract: adjusted data. These differences are even present at
  abstract: frequencies in the data that are not commonly believed to be
  abstract: influenced by seasonal movements.
