st: AW: Event-study

[Sven Künzel <lecoewf@googlemail.com>]

Dear Statalist,


I just reshaped the datasample.I have a question concerning the use of formula respectively scaling a
value. I am doing an Event-Study. I have calculated the sum_for_each_day.
Now I want to scale this sum_for_each_day in percent. The sum prior to the
event (dif=-1) has to take the value 100% and has to represent the benchmark
for the others sums in the event_window. My datasample with the new variable
needed looks like this. Is there a simple way of fitting in a formula
respectively rescaling a value?

0.32---1-23dec-23dec-0-----1----0.5-----1.80---102=(((1.8-1.75)/1.75)+1)*100
0.33---1-27dec-23dec--1-----1----0.6-----2.05---117
0.35---1-28dec-23dec--2-----1----0.4-----2.00---114

Thanks
