As a small-sample robustness check, the Narayan (2005) critical values for T = 80 and k = 4 are also consulted: the 1% upper bound is 5.06. The computed F-statistic of 5.874 exceeds the 1% upper bound under both the Pesaran et al. asymptotic tabulation (4.68) and the Narayan small-sample tabulation (5.06), providing unambiguous evidence for cointegration
