question 20

Essay

A local moving company has collected data on the number of moves they have been asked to perform over the past three years. Moving is highly seasonal, so the owner/operator, who is both burly and highly educated, decides to apply the multiplicative seasonal method (based on a linear regression for total demand) to forecast the number of customers for the coming year. What is his forecast for each quarter?
