Describe in detail various methods of forecasting that aid in purchasing. Be sure to include scholarly resources to support your conclusions.
Forecasting may be defined as the process of assessment of demand for a product during a given period of time in order to evolve an effective production plan. The various qualitative methods of forecasting are:
Using these methods, we would be able to understand the general trend in terms of quality and not a particular quantity or number.
