4. Data source analysis Data is one of the important factors in data forecasting studies because data represents the whole source of the business purpose of the study. There are several reasons that the difference of data source makes it hard to compare prediction accuracy from each other. First, the result of a prediction model may differ with different data sources. Theoretically, the more data we test, the more accurate result we can get, however, in real-world, it is often hard to collect as

Production Planning Introduction The intention of this project is to demonstrate the function of production planning in a non - artificial environment. Through this simulation we are able to forecast, with a degree of certainty the monthly requirements for end products, subassemblies, parts and raw materials. We are supplied with information that we are to base our decisions on. The manufacturer depicted in this simulation was actually a General Electric facility that produced black and white

Big Data in Oil & Gas Sector 1. Introduction Big Data in Oil and Gas industry is not something new. The industry has long dealt with huge amounts of data to make critical decisions over the period of time. For many years energy companies had invested in seismic software, data visualization and other digital tools & technologies for planning and optimization purposes. But now a day, most of the enterprises have started craving a certain desire for better execution of E&P activities. Since the crude

2002 and 2009, therefore the time frames for these articles are appropriate for the study. Methods The approach to the research was a quasi-experimental study. The article did not explain why this type of study was used, but this particular kind of study is considered appropriate for this specific type of

Literature Review Since CAPM was accepted and admitted in fundamental concepts by most people in financial economics, factor model researching becomes a popular topic in finance. In 1992, Eugene Fama and Ken French established the empirical foundations for the Fama & French Three-Factor Model. It is designed to capture the relation between average return and size and the relation between average return and B/M (price ratios). The three factors model can be described by the equation below:

I. Introduction Information technology continues to revolutionize the interactions of mankind in various ways, through social media, business, education and other channels. The internet has made it possible to transmit large data across many networks. These networks have made it possible to store, access and query billion of data from large databases. Innovation has given rise to special language used to manage and access all sorts of information within various databases know as SQL. Recently a new

economic situation of New Zealand. The data provided is sourced from Statistics New Zealand Infoshare, recorded from 1988 to 2015 and records quarterly gross weight of exports in tonnes. Plan Using the data provided, I will use NZ Grapher to plot a time series and a decomposition on Auckland Airport Exports from 1988 to 2015. The data will be interpreted taking into account the raw data, trend, residuals, and seasonal effect. A forecast will be made using the

3.2 Exchange Rate Volatility measure and relative price An important issue in this topic is how to choose the appropriate technique to estimate the exchange rate volatility. However, wide variety of measures have been discussing in the literature, but there is no right or wrong measure of exchange rate volatility. Mckenzie (1999) provides a brief over-view of different methods to measure exchange rate volatility, such average absolute difference between the previous forward and current spot rate

1. INTRODUCTION Consumer demand for a product can be fulfilled entirely in the master production schedule if supported by production capacity according to production requirements. Master production schedule can be easily realized if consumer demand is constant, but in fact companies often experience fluctuations in the demand of consumers who tend to be unstable. Based on research Liske F. (2012) that capacity planning is done well can meet the demand of existing customers as well as be able to increase
