This chapter discusses the econometric approach, and its forensic use and misuse. Econometrics is a set of statistical techniques which estimate the overall and individual effects of variables that affects a variable of interest whether it be prices, output, and so on. The major attraction of multiple regression analysis is its ability to simultaneously account for, estimate, and quantify the myriad factors which influence prices or output. Specifically, in the context of cartel damage, it holds out the possibility of estimating the ‘but for’ price adjusted for the non-cartel factors which affect prices in a systematic and credible way. There are three general multiple regression approaches to estimating overcharges: dummy variable (DVA), predictive, and difference-in-differences. Other statistical techniques can be useful in damages cases such as time series analysis and event studies.

This chapter addresses the difficulty of establishing pass-on. Indeed, estimating pass-on is difficult and often impossible. Even where estimates of the pass-on rate can be generated, estimates of the overcharge are still required to quantify the amount of pass-on. For indirect purchasers, this will add to the difficulty because they may not have the necessary data and knowledge of successive upstream markets. There is also uncertainty to the standard of proof and evidential burden required to establish credible pass-on rates. However, there are a range of approaches that can be used to estimate or quantify the pass-on rate, which are set out in the European Commission’s Pass-on Guidelines. These include documentary evidence on firms’ pricing policies; economic theory/simulations; evidence on the way the direct and indirect purchasers have passed on cost increases in the past, arguing that they would react similarly to an overcharge; third party research on the way the industry has been passed on in the past; and statistical approaches either using multiple regression analysis, time series analysis, or event studies. The volume effect can be estimated using similar approaches although the Pass-on Guidelines suggest multiple regression analysis and the ‘elasticity approach’.

Open Unemployment is a labor force that truly does not have a job. This study was conducted aiming to examine the effect of inflation and investment on open unemployment in Indonesia from 2002 to 2019. The data used are time series data. The analysis technique used in this study is the classical assumption testing, hypothesis testing and multiple regression analysis. The analysis shows that partially positive and significant effect on open unemployment means that the higher the inflation, the higher the open unemployment will be, and vice versa. Investment is partially negative and significant effect on open unemployment means that the higher the investment, the open unemployment will decrease, and vice versa. And inflation and investment simultaneously have a significant effect on open unemployment. The results can be expected to provide input to the government so that it can maintain a stable inflation and investment rate so that the level of open unemployment can remain stable.Keywords: Inflation, Investment, and Open Unemployment.

This study aims to determine the effect of the money supply, domestic investment and labor on the performance of the Indonesia economy with secondary data in the form of time series from 1987 to 2018 and multiple regression analysis (OLS)  techniques are used which show that partially the money supply had a negative and not significant effect on the performance of the Indonesia economy with a probability of 0.5226 >α =5%; domestic investment and labor had a positive and significant effect on economic performance Indonesia with a probability of 0.0000 < α = 5%; the money supply, domestic investment and labor together have a positive and significant effect with F-Statistic probability of 0.0000 <α = 5% on the performance of the Indonesia economy. Appropriate controls are needed from Bank Indonesia to avoid excessive money supply  and the goverment must implement other policy measures that will encourage the performance of the Indonesia economy wih a comprehensive understanding of the development of domestic investment and Indonesia labor.
