Compute an exponential smoothing forecast with α = .20, an adjusted exponential smoothing forecast with α = .20 and β = .20, and a linear trend line forecast. Compare the three forecasts using MAD and average error ( E ¯ ), and indicate which forecast seems to be most accurate.

Students have asked these similar questions
Sales of​ Volkswagen's popular Beetle have grown steadily at auto dealerships in Nevada during the past 5 years​ (see table​ below). Using exponential smoothing with a smoothing constant ​(α​) of 0.30 and a starting forecast of 420.00​, the following sales forecast has been​ developed:                                                                                     Year Sales Forecasted Sales 1 460 420.00 2 510 432.00 3 520 455.40   Using smoothing constants of 0.60 and 0.90​, develop forecasts for the sales of VW Beetles. Use MAD to determine which of the three smoothing constants ​(0.30​, 0.60​, or 0.90​) gives the most accurate forecast. The MAD for a forecast developed using exponential smoothing with α=0.30 is nothing sales. ​(Round your response to two decimal​ places.)
