a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: Updating the estimates of the slope and intercept based on previously observed data using Holt’s method

Introduction: Holt’s method is a forecasting method that specifically accounts for a trend in the dataIt is a form of double exponential smoothing that enables the sequence and the trend to be smoothed simultaneously.

b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The one and two steps ahead forecast that Hold’s method gives for visitors of the park in September and October

Introduction: Holt’s method is a type of double exponential smoothing designed to track time series. This forecasting method specifically accounts for a trend in the data.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: Forecast made for December at the time of end of July regarding for visitors of the park:

Introduction: Holt’s method is a type of double exponential smoothing designed to track time series. This forecasting method specifically accounts for a trend in the data.

1.) Use the following dummy variables to develop an estimated regression equation to account for seasonal effects only in the data. Qtr1 = 1 if Quarter 1, 0otherwise; Qtr2 = 1 if Quarter 2, 0 otherwise, Qtr3 = 1 if Quarter 3, 0otherwise. Based only on the seasonal effects in the data, compute estimates of quarterly sales for year 6.a. Report the estimate of sales for Year 6 Quarter 1. (Enter a whole value.)b. Report the estimate of sales for Year 6 Quarter 4. (Enter a whole value.)2.) Let Period t = 1 refer to the observation in quarter 1 of year 1; Period t = 2refer to the observation in quarter 2 or year 1; … and Period t = 20 refer to the observation in quarter 4 of year 5. Using the dummy variables defined in part (b) and Period (t), develop an estimated regression equation to account for seasonal effects and any linear trend in the time series. Based upon the seasonal effects in the data and linear trend, compute the estimates of quarterly sales for year 6.a. Report the estimate…
(a) Assuming that a simple linear regression model is appropriate, obtain the least squares fit relating selling price to taxes paid. What is the estimate of o²? (b) Find the mean selling price given that the taxes paid are x = 7.50. (c) Calculate the fitted value of y corresponding to x = 5.8980. Find the corresponding residual.
The classified department of a monthly magazine has used a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to forecast sales of advertising space. Results over a 20-month period are as follows:Month Error1 −8 2 −2 3 4 4 7 5 9 6 5 7 0 8 −3 9 −9 10 −4 11 1 12 6 13 8 14 4 15 1 16 −2 17 −4 18 −8 19 −5 20 −1 a. Compute a tracking signal for months 11 through 20. Compute an initial value of MAD for month 11, and then update it for each month using exponential smoothing with α = .1. What can you conclude? Assume limits of ± 4.b. Using the first half of the data, construct a control chart with 2s limits. What can you conclude?c. Plot the last 10 errors on the control chart. Are the errors random? What is the implication of this?
