Domestic Car Sales Consider the following multiple regression model of domestic car sales (DCS) where: DCS = domestic car sales DCSP = domestic car sales price (in dollars) PR = prime rate as a percent (i.e., 10% would be entered as 10) Q2 = quarter 2 dummy variable Q3 = quarter 3 dummy variable Q4 = quarter 4 dummy variable

The sales trend has been modeled as: Sales = 7.00 * t + 112.00, where t = time in quarters, beginning in Q1 2015. Seasonality for the four quarterly periods is given in the table below. Find the seasonalized forecast for Q1 of 2017. Quarter Seasonal Factor Quarter #1 1.10 Quarter #2 0.90 Quarter #3 0.90 Quarter #4

A model to forecast quarterly sales (in $100,000s) has been estimated as follows: yt = 0.3t + 2Q1 + 0.8Q2 + 5, where Q1 is the dummy variable for quarter 1, Q2 is the dummy variable for quarter 2, and Q3 is the dummy variable for quarter 3. When all three dummy variables are 0, we have quarter 4. Therefore, quarter 4 is the baseline. (a) Assuming that the time series used starts at the 1st quarter of 2000 (where t=1) and ends at the 4th quarter of 2012, what would the forecast for the first and third quarter of 2015 be? Show computation. (b) What can be inferred from the fact that this forecasting model contains no coefficients for Quarter 3?

The sales trend has been modeled as: Sales=3*t+100, where t= time in quarters, beginning in Q1 2010. Seasonality for the four quarterly periods is given in the table below. Find the seasonalized forecast for Q1 of 2013. Quarter Seasonal Factor Quarter #1 1.1000 Quarter #2 0.9000 Quarter #3 0.9000 Quarter #4
