Counterfactuals for SVAR Models

Calculation of Counterfactuals for an identified SVAR object 'svars' derived by function id.st( ), id.cvm( ),id.cv( ),id.dc( ) or id.ngml( ).

cf(x, series = 1, transition = 0)

`x`	SVAR object of class "svars"
`series`	Integer. indicating the series for which the counterfactuals should be calculated.
`transition`	Numeric. Value from [0, 1] indicating how many initial values should be discarded, i.e., 0.1 means that the first 10 per cent observations of the sample are considered as transient.

A list with class attribute "hd" holding the Counterfactuals as data frame.
