Linear trend model:

Quadratic trend model:
Third-order autoregressive::

Below is the residual plot of the various models:

-Referring to Scenario 16-13,what is the exponentially smoothed value for the 12^th month using a smoothing coefficient of W = 0.25 if the exponentially smoothed value for the 10^th and 11^th month are 9,477.7776 and 9,411.8332,respectively?
