FALL 2008
Types of Forecasts
• Judgmental - uses subjective inputs
• Time series - uses historical data assuming the future will be like the past
• Associative models - uses explanatory variables to predict the future
FALL 2008
Judgmental Forecasts
• Executive opinions
• Sales force composite
• Consumer surveys
• Outside opinion
• Opinions of managers and staff
–Delphi method
FALL 2008
Time Series Forecasts
• Trend - long-term movement in data• Seasonality - short-term regular variations in
data• Irregular variations - caused by unusual
circumstances• Random variations - caused by chance

FALL 2008
• Simple to use
• Virtually no cost
• Data analysis is nonexistent
• Easily understandable
• Cannot provide high accuracy
• Can be a standard for accuracy
Naïve Forecasts
FALL 2008
• Stable time series data– F(t) = A(t-1)
• Seasonal variations– F(t) = A(t-n)
• Data with trends– F(t) = A(t-1) + (A(t-1) – A(t-2))
Uses for Naïve Forecasts
FALL 2008
Techniques for Averaging
• Moving average
• Weighted moving average
• Exponential smoothing

Weighted Moving Average
• If more recent data is thought more indicative.
• Weight the historic actuals:– E.g. 0.4 x A1+0.3 x A3 +0.2 x A3 +0.1 x A4
Example:
1 42
2 40
3 43
4 40
5 41
What is forecast for next month?
FALL 2008
Exponential Smoothing
Premise--The most recent observations might have the highest predictive value.
– Therefore, we should give more weight to the more recent time periods when forecasting.
Ft = Ft-1 + (At-1 - Ft-1)

Forecast Accuracy
• Error - difference between actual value and predicted value
• Mean absolute deviation (MAD)– Average absolute error
• Mean squared error (MSE)– Average of squared error
• Tracking signal– Ratio of cumulative error and MAD
