The problem was as follows.
The regression is y = x b + e. (1)
However, to estimate it (b/c of a variety of issues such
autocorrelation, system of equation with correlated errors), the model
that I end up estimating is
yt = xt b + z c + v, (2)
where yt is a transformation of y, xt is a transformation of x, and z
are variables from the other regressions.
So, what I need to do is to get the estimates of b from (2) and plug
back into (1) to compute my R^2.
An R^2 measure for any model can almost always be computed from the simple correlation between Y and Yhat, so if you can construct a predicted value from the equation you estimate "if e(sample)" for yt, and apply the inverse transformation that gets you back to yhat, just compute the square of that correlation.
