Publication A Non-linear Stochastic Consols Yield Model Of Malaysia(The Academy of Sciences Malaysia, 2019) ;Nur Syahirah Abd Munil ;Norizarina Ishak ;Ahmad Fadly Nurullah RasadeeAbu Bakar HasanThis study examines the non-linear stochastic Consols yield model for Malaysia inspired by Whitten and Thomas model in year 1999. Whitten and Thomas model consist six subs-models which are price inflation model, wage inflation model, share dividends, share yields, Consols yield and base rate. We only considered the Consols yield model in this study. Aim of this study is to apply the Consols yield inspired Whitten and Thomas model to Malaysian data by using Threshold Autoregressive (TAR) method for data estimation. From that, we able to determine the most suitable model for Consols yield in Malaysia. Hence, we compare our model with the inspired Wilkie model for Malaysia developed by Ishak (2015). The data that we used in this study is a 10-Year Malaysian Government Securities (MGS) yield. The data is based on monthly data from year 2006-2016. Descriptive statistics is used to test the statistical behavior of the data. This study shows a positive kurtosis and skewness which indicates that the distribution has heavier tail than the normal distribution. This study also shows that there is threshold effect on Malaysian Consols yield which is below 3.71% and the most suitable TAR model for Malaysian Consols yield is TAR (3).

Publication Performance Outcomes In Learning Additional Mathematics By Grey Theory Approach(Medwell Publications, 2019) ;Abu Bakar Hasan ;Norizarina IshakSharma Rao A/l BalakrishnanGrey system theory has evolved, since, it was first introduced roughly 40years ago. It has been used in many applications and environments by different researchers worldwide. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the said theory in education environment by looking at the performance outcome in learning a mathematical subject at secondary school level through analysis and forecasting. The results show that the GM(1,1) Model produced 3.8% mean relative percentage error and future research will focus on how to optimize the forecasting.
