Characteristics of forecasts Forecasts are always wrong. Should include expected value and measure of error. Long-term forecasts are less accurate than short-term forecasts: Forecast horizon Aggregate forecasts are more accurate than disaggregate forecasts
Forecasting Methods Qualitative Time Series Static Adaptive Causal Simulation
Components of an observation Observed demand (O) = Systematic component (S) + Random component (R) Level (current deseasonalized demand) Trend (growth or decline in demand) Seasonality (predictable seasonal fluctuation)
Time Series Forecasting Forecast demand for the next four quarters.
