It has been said that forecasting using exponential smoothing is like driving a car by looking in the rear-view mirror. What are the conditions that would have toexist for driving a car that are analogous to the assumptions made when using exponential smoothing?
An analyst must decide between two different forecasting techniques for weekly sales of roller blades: a linear trend equation and the naive approach. The linear trendequation is Ft = 125 + 2.2t, and it was developed using data from periods 1 through 10. Based on data for periods 11 through 20 as shown in the table, which of thesetwo methods has the greater accuracy if MAD and MSE are used?

Use the moving average method to forecast period 105.Use the exponential smoothing method to forecast period 105.Use the time-series decomposition method to forecast period 105.Comparing the three methods, which one fits this situation best?The larger the parameter (n) is set, the more historical data are taken into account by the moving average.You can choose different parameter (n) to extrapolate to compare the prediction effect.In general, the parameter (n) should not be taken too large.Moving average.153025703560453055106560761085609580106101165012700136701470015760167301776018820197802090021840227702382024800257602676027770287902976030740317203267033690344703567036690376203865039610406204164042590436104460045630466004763048640496105059051610526305366054640558105679057820586505971060700616706269063730647306576066790678106887069890708707189072880739307498075900768607789078880798708084081860829108387084860858408654087780887508978090760917109273093750947509571096750977209877099740100750101760102780103800104850105Exponential smoothingsame153025703560453055106560761085609580106101165012700136701470015760167301776018820197802090021840227702382024800257602676027770287902976030740317203267033690344703567036690376203865039610406204164042590436104460045630466004763048640496105059051610526305366054640558105679057820586505971060700616706269063730647306576066790678106887069890708707189072880739307498075900768607789078880798708084081860829108387084860858408654087780887508978090760917109273093750947509571096750977209877099740100750101760102780103800104850105Time-series decomposition153025703560453055106560761085609580106101165012700136701470015760167301776018820197802090021840227702382024800257602676027770287902976030740317203267033690344703567036690376203865039610406204164042590436104460045630466004763048640496105059051610526305366054640558105679057820586505971060700616706269063730647306576066790678106887069890708707189072880739307498075900768607789078880798708084081860829108387084860858408654087780887508978090760917109273093750947509571096750977209877099740100750101760102780103800104850105

"Measuring the accuracy of a forecasting model" If we are over-forecasting (forecast values are higher than actual values), what would be the tracking signals?
Forecasting techniques are very valuable in business planning, but without effectively examining the forecasting error, a business could make very flawed decisions. It is critical that we always evaluate the level of error and use this information to inform decisions about production, stocking, etc. For each of the error measures below, describe their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, select the method you believe would be most useful. forecast error CFE mean bias MAD MAPE
