Chapter 14.6, Problem 14.33ACB
Annual U.S. craft beer production (cont’d). Refer to the beer production forecasts, Exercise 14.25 (p. 14-24). In part b you obtained forecasts of 2014 and 2015 craft beer production using Holt’s method with (w = .3. v = .7) and (w= .7, v = .3).
a. Calculate the forecast errors for the w = .3, v = .7 Holt forecasts.
b. Calculate the forecast errors for the w= .7, v = .3 Holt forecasts.
c Calculate MAD, MAPE, and RMSE for the w= .3, v = .7 Holt forecasts.
d. Calculate MAD, MAPE, and RMSE for the w= .7, v = .3 Holt forecasts.
e. Refer to parts c and d. Which forecast method do you recommend?

The article in the ASCE Journal of Energy Engineering (1999, Vol. 125, pp.59-75) describes a study of the thermal inertia properties of autoclaved aerated concrete used as a building material. Five samples of the material were tested in a structure, and the average interior temperatures (°C) reported were as follows: 23.01, 22.22, 22.04, 22.62, and 22.59. Test that the average interior temperature is equal to 22.5°C using alpha (a) = 0.05.

What is the statistical decision in the statement form?
You are observing the speeds of two CPUs, to find which one is expected to run faster. After a number of observations, you came up with the following results: CPU Speed Measurements 37 38 40 35 30 31 26 25 Number of Observations 18 15 CPU 1 CPU 2 10 10 10 5 0 2.0-24 2.5-2.9 3.5 - 3.9 4.0 - 4.5 3.0-3.4 Speed (GHz) A. Using this data, calculate the expected speed of each processor, and determine which of the two is faster. (Hint: when given a range of speeds, you can consider the average value within that range to be the speed at which the observations occurred).
Suppose your dependent variable is aggregate household demand for electricity for various cities. To correct for heteroskedasticity you should
Select one:
a. multiply observations by the square root of the city size
b. multiply observations by the city size
c. divide observations by the city size
d. divide observations by the square root of the city size
e. none of these
