Suppose that a company uses an application of time series
analysis that is known as “demand forecasting”. Meaning that they
have a need to forecast the periodic demand for their products over
time. In their use of demand forecasting, they use smoothing to
remove random variation(noise) from their historical demand. This
allows them to better identify demand patterns (primarily trend and
seasonality) and demand levels that can be used to estimate future
demand. The following represents their Excel spreadsheet with...

1 Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding time
series forecasting methods?
a Moving average (MA) method is appropriate for forecasting an
item that shows seasonal pattern
b By assigning larger weight to the most recent period data,
weighted moving average (WMA) method is more reflective to the
changes in the most recent period of data than MA method
c Simple exponential smoothing method is NOT appropriate for
forecasting stable item without trend
d Linear trend line method is...
