You want to compare how two forecasting methods would perform on some historical sales data. You will forecast the sales for months 4 through 19, calculate the mean absolute deviation (MAD) for both methods, and you can claim that the one that has lower MAD performed better, at least for the historical data. a) The first method is known as the moving average method. The forecast for a month will be the average sales of three previous months. So, forecast...

Different types of time-series forecasting models and their applicability in different organizations are given below: 1. Naive approach: In naive approach, demand for the next period is assumed to be same in the most recent period. This method can be used in economic and financial time series analysis. It can be used to forecast demand for mature products having level or seasonal demand without a trend. 2. Moving average: This method uses a number of historical data to determine the...
5. The components of time-series are: a. Trend, Seasonal, Movement, and Random b. Trend, Mobility, Cyclical, and Seasonal c. Trend, Seasonal, Cyclical, and Random d. Trend, Seasonal, Cyclical, and Perfection The mean absolute deviation measures the accuracy of a forecast by calculating.. a. the mid-point of absolute forecasting error per period of historical data. b. the average absolute forecasting error per period of historical data. c. the standard deviation of absolute forecasting error per period of historical data d. both...
