Abstract:
We will deal with financial proceedings of the company using methods of SPC (Statistical Process
Control), specifically through time series control charts. The paper will outline the intersection
of two disciplines which are econometrics and statistical process control. The theoretical
part will discuss the methodology of time series control charts and in the research part there will
be this methodology demonstrated in three case studies. The first study will focus on the regulation
of simulated financial flows for a company by CUSUM control chart. The second study will
involve the regulation of financial flows for a heteroskedastic financial process by EWMA control
chart. The last case study of our paper will be devoted to applications of ARIMA, EWMA
and CUSUM control charts in the financial data that are sensitive to the mean shifting while
calculating the autocorrelation in the data. In this paper, we highlight the versatility of control
charts not only in manufacturing but also in managing the financial stability of cash flows.
