Question 52

Essay

Consider the following time series data.  Year  Value 12342287325543105298625073028267922510336\begin{array} { | c | c | } \hline \text { Year } & \text { Value } \\\hline 1 & 234 \\\hline 2 & 287 \\\hline 3 & 255 \\\hline 4 & 310 \\\hline 5 & 298 \\\hline 6 & 250 \\\hline 7 & 302 \\\hline 8 & 267 \\\hline 9 & 225 \\\hline 10 & 336 \\\hline\end{array}
a. Use α = 0.2 to compute the exponential smoothing values for the time series. Compute MSE and a forecast for year 11.
b. Use trial and error to find a value of the exponential smoothing coefficient α (rounded to 2 decimal places) that results in a smaller MSE than what you calculated for α = 0.2.
c. Compute the forecast for year 11 using the smoothing coefficient α selected using trial error.
