Thank you for this video. If you don't mind, I would like to ask 2 questions.

1. What is the reasoning behind the transformation of a linear variable into a logarithm variable?
2. How do you detect if the variable needs to be transformed into a logarithm form on Eviews?

Also, if you can include the book and or journal references, that would be great! Thank you.
