Forecast error Actual value Forecast value! Oe measure of accuracy is the mea absolute deviatio (MAD): MAD forecast error

10 Measures of Forecast Accuracy There are other popular measures of forecast accuracy. The mea squared error: MSE (error)! The mea absolute percet error: error actual MAPE 00%! Ad bias is the average error. Time-Series Forecastig Models A time series is a sequece of evely spaced evets. Time-series forecasts predict the future based solely o the past values of the variable, ad other variables are igored Compoets of a Time-Series A time series typically has four compoets:. Tred (T) is the gradual upward or dowward movemet of the data over time.. Seasoality (S) is a patter of demad fluctuatios above or below the tred lie that repeats at regular itervals. 3. Cycles (C) are patters i aual data that occur every several years. 4. Radom variatios (R) are blips i the data caused by chace or uusual situatios, ad follow o discerible patter. Movig Averages! Movig averages ca be used whe demad is relatively steady over time.! The ext forecast is the average of the most recet data values from the time series.! This methods teds to smooth out shortterm irregularities i the data series. Sum of demadsiprevious periods Movig average forecast ! Mathematically: Movig Averages F t+ Yt + Yt Yt + Where: F forecast for time period t + t+ Y t actual value i time period t umber of periods to average Weighted Movig Averages!

New forecast Last period s forecast + α(last period s actual demad Last period s forecast) Here α is a weight (or smoothig costat) i which 0 α. Mathematically: Where: F t+ Ft + α( t t Y F ) F t+ ew forecast (for time period t + ) F t pervious forecast (for time period t) α smoothig costat (0 α ) Y t pervious period s actual demad The idea is simple the ew estimate is the old estimate plus some fractio of the error i the last period Expoetial Smoothig with Tred Adjustmet Like all averagig techiques, expoetial smoothig does ot respod to treds. A more complex model ca be used that adjusts for treds. The basic approach is to develop a expoetial smoothig forecast, ad the adjust it for the tred. Forecast icludig tred (FIT t+ ) Smoothed forecast (F t+ ) + Smoothed Tred (T t+ ) Expoetial Smoothig with Tred Adjustmet The equatio for the tred correctio uses a ew smoothig costat β. T t must be give or estimated. T t+ is computed by: T t+ ( β) Tt + β( Ft + t FIT ) T t smoothed tred for time period t F t smoothed forecast for time period t FIT t forecast icludig tred for time period t α smoothig costat for forecasts β smoothig costat for tred Selectig a Smoothig Costat Tred Projectios! As with expoetial smoothig, a high value of β makes the forecast more resposive to chages i tred.! A low value of β gives less weight to the recet tred ad teds to smooth out the tred.! Values are geerally selected usig a trial-aderror approach based o the value of the MAD for differet values of β.! Tred projectio fits a tred lie to a series of historical data poits.! The lie is projected ito the future for medium- to log-rage forecasts.! Several tred equatios ca be developed based o expoetial or quadratic models.! The simplest is a liear model developed usig regressio aalysis
