How to arrange panel data for Eviews into MS-excel

Let suppose I have 4 variables which are like (ROA, ROE, ROEC AND SALE) etc. And 4 (nestle, ogdcl,

unilever, lotte etc.) different companies. There are two way of arranging your data into excel sheet first

way, we arrange data into horizontal form and in second way we arrange data into vertical form.

Let’s start: method one

Arrange your all variables into this order. Means first write your variable name then underscore then your

first company name or your first country or whatever data you used. Once your one variable completed

then same without any gap start second variable and all cross sections and write till your all variables

ends. Below is screenshot of my arrange data into excel format.

Roa_nest Roa_ogd Roa_uni Roa_lote Roe_nest Roe_ogd Roe_uni Roe_lote Roce_nest etc

Let’s start second method of arrange panel data into excel file in vertical form.

In vertical form we arrange data like this.

year Company ENVC EPS ROA ROE ROC

2007 Unilever 31513000 136.66 35.06 132.89 131.08

2008 Unilever 30,498,000 156 30.17 139.25 135.08

2009 Unilever 30,215,000 45.64 39.51 162.02 135.372007  FFC  49,072,000 16.02  16.02  81.04  70.44 2008  FFC  35,895,000 18.37  18.37  110.35  83.49 2009  FFC  5,206,000 16.25  16.25  106.64  63.09 

2007 HONDA 10,845,000 17.15 10.26 28.49 19.27

Please zoom for clear look. Here I have my first variable ROC and I have 9 different

companies, and I wrote all the data in excel sheet and all data is without any gap.

In first column I years, then variable and cross section name and I have wrote the name

or cross sections in abbreviation form. Like this ROC_UNI and in next Colum ROC_FFC

etc.
