(a) Use Excel, MegaStat, or MINITAB to fit both a linear and an exponential trend to the time series. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Linear yt =  t +
Exponential yt =  e  t


(b) Make annual forecasts for 2016–2018, using the linear and exponential trend models. (Do not round the intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answer #1

(a) The regression is done using Excel. For linear regression, the equation to be fitted is:

For exponential regression, the equation to be fitted is:

t is the time difference from the base year of 2007. This means that 2008 corresponds to t=1 and 2015 corresponds to t=8.

The regression gives the following equations:

Linear
Exponential

(b) Substituting t=9, 10, and 11 in the model equations give:

Time Linear Exponential
9 6807.79 7220.20
10 7275.82 7990.95
11 7743.86 8843.97
