SCENARIO 16-14 a Contractor Developed a Multiplicative Time-Series Model to Forecast the Forecast
SCENARIO 16-14
A contractor developed a multiplicative time-series model to forecast the number of contracts in future quarters,using quarterly data on number of contracts during the 3-year period from 2011 to 2013.The following is the resulting regression equation:
ln Yˆ = 3.37 + 0.117 X - 0.083 Q1 + 1.28 Q2 + 0.617 Q3
where
Yˆ is the estimated number of contracts in a quarter.
X is the coded quarterly value with X = 0 in the first quarter of 2011.
Q1 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the first quarter of a year and 0 otherwise.
Q2 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the second quarter of a year and 0 otherwise.
Q3 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the third quarter of a year and 0 otherwise.
-Referring to Scenario 16-14,to obtain a forecast for the first quarter of 2014 using the model,which of the following sets of values should be used in the regression equation?
A) X = 12,Q1 = 0,Q2 = 0,Q3 = 0
B) X = 12,Q1 = 1,Q2 = 0,Q3 = 0
C) X = 13,Q1 = 0,Q2 = 0,Q3 = 0
D) X = 13,Q1 = 1,Q2 = 0,Q3 = 0
