tourism contains quarterly visitor nights (in thousands) from 1998 to 2017 for 76 regions of Australia. (a) Extract data from the Gold Coast region using filter() and aggregate total overnight trips (sum over Purpose) using summarise(). Call this new dataset gc_tourism. (b) Using slice() or filter(), create a training set for this data excluding the last 3 years. Call the dataset gc_train_3. (c) Compute three years of forecasts using the average, naive, seasonal naive, and drift methods. Call the result gc_fc_3. (d) Use accuracy() to compare forecast accuracy of different methods using MAPE. Explain your finding. (e) Use the time series cross-validation method to compare forecast accuracy of different methods. Explain your finding.

How do I find the seasonal index for the data in the chart?
Supratim P.
Vacation destinations often run on a seasonal basis, depending on the primary activities in that location. Amanda Wang is the owner of a travel agency in Cincinnati, Ohio. She has built a database of the number of vacation packages (Vacation) that she has sold over the last twelve years. The following table contains a portion of quarterly data on the number of vacation packages sold: Year Quarter Vacation 2008 1 590 2008 2 237 : : : 2019 4 1013 Click here for the Excel Data File a. Estimate the linear regression models using seasonal dummy variables with and without the trend term. Which is the preferred model? (Negative values for regression coefficients should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) based on the value of b. Use the preferred model to forecast the quarterly number of vacation packages sold in the first two quarters of 2020. (Round coefficient estimates to at least 4 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Date Forecast Quarter 1 Quarter 2

Bus and subway ridership in the Washington, DC area during the summer months is believed to be heavily tied to the number of tourists visiting the city. Over the past 12 years, the following data have been obtained: NUMBER OF TOURISTS (100,000s) RIDERSHIP (1,000,000s) 15 10 13 15 14 25 15 27 16 24 12 20 10 20 15 12 (a) Plot these data and determine whether a linear model is reasonable. (b) Develop a regression model. (c) What is the expected ridership if 10 million tourists visit the city?
