Attached a Forecasting Assignment. Forecasting
Plot the time series data. Make sure that the graph is labeled (i.e. title vertical axis etc.)
Compute the forecast for Q4 2010 using each of the following time series forecasting techniques:
2-period moving average.
4-period moving average.
Simple exponential smoothing. Use the naive approach to generate an initial forecast and a trial-and-error approach to compute alpha that minimizes MSE.
Trend Line.
Seasonalized Time Series Regression.
Compute the MSE values for parts (a) through (d).
Which forecasting technique would you recommend? Justify your answer.I need 2 different assignments one for me one for my friend. Please provide to different expert for us.
