Characteristics of Forecasts Forecasts are always wrong.Should include expected value and measure of error. Long-term forecasts are less accurate than short-term forecasts (forecast horizon is important) Aggregate forecasts are more accurate than disaggregate forecasts SEIEE AU406 7-3

Forecasting Methods Qualitative:primarily subjective;rely on judgment and opinion Time Series:use historical demand only Static ■Adaptive ■ Causal:use the relationship between demand and some other factor to develop forecast Simulation Imitate consumer choices that give rise to demand Can combine time series and causal methods SEIEE AU406 7-4

Components of an Observation Observed demand (O)= Systematic component(S)+Random component(R) Level (current deseasonalized demand) Trend (growth or decline in demand) Seasonality (predictable seasonal fluctuation) Systematic component:Expected value of demand Random component:The part of the forecast that deviates from the systematic component Forecast error:difference between forecast and actual demand SEIEE AU406 7-5
