Problem 2: Forecasting (10 points) Given these sales figures over the last 6 weeks, your boss needs you to test two different forecasting methods (parts a and b below) to determine which method is best. For your measure of "best", recommend to your boss that the company should use the method with the lowest mean absolute deviation (MAD). Then use that method to provide your forecast for week 7 in part c. Week >WN Unit Sold 523 587 622 601...

H.W 13 Q5 QUESTION 5 The manager of a travel agency asked you to come up with a forecasting technique that will best fit to the actual demand for packaged tours. You have observed and recorded the actual demand for the last 10 periods. You also identified two possible techniques for consideration: 2-month moving averages (F1), and exponential smoothing (F2) with a smoothing constant of 0.35. Using Cumulative Forecasting Error (CFE) and Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) as your performance measures...
The manager of a travel agency asked you to come up with a forecasting technique that will best fit to the actual demand for packaged tours. You have observed and recorded the actual demand for the last 10 periods. You also identified two possible techniques for consideration: 2-month moving averages (F1), and exponential smoothing (F2) with a smoothing constant of 0.40. Using Cumulative Forecasting Error (CFE) and Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) as your performance measures you will determine the technique...
