Chapter 17, Problem 51SE

Refer to the Costello Music Company time series in exercise 49.

  1. a. Deseasonalize the data and use the deseasonalized time series to identify the trend.
  2. b. Use the results of part (a) to develop a quarterly forecast for next year based on trend.
  3. c. Use the seasonal indexes developed in exercise 50 to adjust the forecasts developed in part (b) to account for the effect of season.

50. Refer to the Costello Music Company problem in exercise 49.

  1. a. Using time series decomposition, compute the seasonal indexes for the four quarters.
  2. b. When does Costello Music experience the largest seasonal effect? Does this result appear reasonable? Explain.

49. Consider the Costello Music Company problem in exercise 48. The quarterly sales data follow.

Year Quarter I Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4 Total Yearly Sales
1 4 2 1 5 12
2 6 4 4 14 28
3 10 3 5 16 34
4 12 9 7 22 50
5 18 10 13 35 76
  1. a. Use the following dummy variables to develop an estimated regression equation to account for any seasonal and linear trend effects in the data: Qtr1 = 1 if Quarter 1, 0 otherwise; Qtr2 = 1 if Quarter 2, 0 otherwise; and Qtr3 = 1 if Quarter 3, 0 otherwise.
  2. b. Compute the quarterly forecasts for next year.

John Kittle, an independent insurance agent, uses a five-year moving average to forecast the number of claims made in a single year for one of the large insurance companies he sells for. He has just discovered that a clerk in his employ incorrectly entered the number of claims made four years ago as 1,400 when it should have been 1,200.a. What adjustment should Mr. Kittle make in next year’s forecast to take into account the corrected value of the number of claims four years ago?b. Suppose that Mr. Kittle used simple exponential smoothing with a = .2instead of moving averages to determine his forecast. What adjustment is now required in next year’s forecast? (Note that you do not need to know the value of the forecast for next year in order to solve this problem.)
In Colorado, sales of medical marijuana began in November 2012; however, the Department of Revenue did not report tax collection data until February of 2014. The accompanying data file includes monthly revenue from medical and retail marijuana tax and fee collections as posted in the Colorado state accounting system. Use the linear trend model (no seasonality) to forecast the tax revenue for November and December of 2018. Date Revenue February/14 3,519,756 March/14 4,092,575 April/14 4,980,992 May/14 5,273,355 June/14 5,715,707 July/14 6,522,085 August/14 7,407,450 September/14 7,741,167 October/14 7,232,870 November/14 7,642,800 December/14 7,465,568 January/15 8,558,141 February/15 8,802,295 March/15 9,099,395 April/15 9,979,643 May/15 10,617,311 June/15 11,326,452 July/15 10,856,584 August/15 12,811,437 September/15 13,181,758 October/15 11,656,736 November/15 11,290,012 December/15 12,231,410 January/16 13,247,434 February/16…
Use the most accurate method to forecast the revenues of licenses, permits, and fees in Years 9, 10, and 11. Use the Year 8 actual figure instead of the forecast figure (Year 8 was $23,210,218). Also, consider three incremental changes in forecasting.
