b) Use the Forecasting Method that uses the average of all the data available until that
period as the forecast for the next period. What is the forecast for month 11?
c) Which method appears to provide the better forecast? Use different Measures of Forecast
Accuracy in making this determination.
2. Refer to the gasoline sales time series data in Table 18.1 of the Text Book. (Use Excel for
this problem. Copy paste Excel Tables into your report for answering questions).
a) Compute two- week, three-week, and four- week moving average forecasts for the time
series data.
b) Compute Measures of Forecast Accuracy like MAE, MSE, and MAPE.
c) Which method of forecasting of the three (two, three, or four- week moving average
models) would you prefer to use for future forecasting purposes? Justify your answer.
3. For the Hawkins Company, the monthly percentages of all shipments received on time over

b) Develop the linear trend equation. What are the values for slope and intercept?
c) What is the forecast for t = 11?
d) Is the linear trend statistically significant? Use α = .05
