Introduction: Regression analysis is a statistical method for estimating the interactions between variables. In data forecasting, companies can learn trends using regression analysis. It enables data based predictions to be made.

B

Summary Introduction

To determine: The forecast for sales revenue in year 10 by using the results of part (a) also assuming that the births are forecasted to be 3.3 million in year 9.

Introduction: Regression analysis is a statistical method for estimating the interactions between variables. In data forecasting, companies can learn trends using regression analysis. It enables data based predictions to be made.

C

Summary Introduction

To determine: An exponentially smoothed forecast for U.S. births in year 9.

Introduction: Regression analysis is a statistical method for estimating the interactions between variables. In data forecasting, companies can learn trends using regression analysis. It enables data based predictions to be made.

D

Summary Introduction

To determine:A forecast for the sum of total aggregate sales in years 9 and 10 by combining the results in parts (a), (b) and (c).
