Текст научной статьи The investigation of U.S. dollar exchange rate dependence from Canadian dollar oil price
^ = f (BRi)
where: Yt is the calculated value of the US dollar to Canadian dollar;
B R i - the price of oil.
Figure 1. shows the field correlations of the US dollar exchange rate to Canadian dollar to the price of oil.
Based on the field correlation, (for the General combination) it is possible to hypothesize that the relationship between all possible values of the USD/CAD exchange rate (Y i ) and the cost of oil (BR i ) is parabolic in nature.
Then the estimated equation of the parabolic regression (built for sample data), modeling variation in the USD/CAD exchange rate (Y i ) depending on the cost of oil (BR i ), will be:
Yt = a0 + a1BRi + a2BRl where: Yt - the present value of the U.S. dollar exchange rate from Canadian dollar; BRi - is the price of oil;
a0 , a 1 - parameters of the equation.

In accordance with the method of least squares in which in the equation the sum of squares deviations should be minimal between the estimated and actual values.
After substituting the calculated data for the construction of parabolic models based on the USD/CAD exchange rate (Y i ) from the cost of oil (BR i ), the equation system of the parabolic regression has the form:
2623А0+22144А1+20823895,7А2=2861,605
224144А0+20823895,7А1+2059153616,3А2=238842,8
20823895,7А0+2059153616,3А1+213112290249,8А2=21825068,79
Solving the system, we obtain the coefficients of the parabolic regression:
a0 = 1,78255; a1 = -0,01393;a2 = 0,00063;
Thus, the parabolic model based on USD/CAD exchange rate dependence (Y i ) from the cost of oil (BR i ) has the form:
Y; = 1,78255 - 0,01393 * BR + 0,000063 * BR2
where: (Yi)- the present value of the U.S. dollar exchange rate from canadian dollar;
BR [ - is the price of oil.
Figure 2 shows the graph of actual and estimated U.S. dollar exchange rate to Canadian dollar, it is built on the basis of the developed univariate parabolic model of the USD/CAD exchange rate dependence (Y j ) from the cost of oil.

Figure 2 shows a graph of calculated values of the USD/CAD exchange rate that follows the same general direction of movement of the actual value of the USD/CAD exchange rate.
Using the estimated data to conduct univariate parabolic models based on the USD/CAD exchange rate dependence (Y j ) from the value of the oil, we can determine:
-
1) correlation coefficient characterizing the U.S. dollar dependence from the Canadian dollar to the cost of oil:
r=F
Ш - Y p )2
Ш — YC p )2
= 0,9001
R = 0,9001 reflects suggests that changes in the oil price highly impact on the USD/CAD exchange rate .
-
2) the coefficient of determination, describing how the posted signs explain the obtained calculated result on the basis of the developed model:
R2 = 1 - -?(5—SL = 0,8102 ЭД - M
R2 indicates that in 81,02 % cases the changes in the cost of oil (BR i ) lead to changes in the USD/CAD exchange rate.
Thus, using the parabolic model based on the USD/CAD exchange rate dependence from the cost of oil, it is possible to determine USD/CAD exchange rate taking into account changes in the prices of oil. The fall in oil prices leads to the growth of USD/CAD exchange rate. Accordingly, the rising cost of oil leads to an increase of U.S. dollar exchange rate to Canadian dollar.
