Project_1

For project 1, I picked the datasets from the cases in the book. There are 3 related datasets in the file.

 

I started by forecasting a labor hour of the first week of 2003 using 4 period moving average using week period. As a result, StatTools calculated a mean absolute error of 223.27 and root mean square error of 270.94, and a percentage absolute error of 41.43%, which, in my opinion is fairly high.

StateTools also created a graph to present the differences between actual data and forecasting data.

 

 

The forecasting data imply that labor hours of the company will be lower. However, after adding a power trend line on forecasting data (a yellow line), it shows that labor hours are lower at the beginning of 2002. Then labor hours tend to increase and become steady toward the end of the year.

 

 

 

 

I also create a power trend line in an actual data to see the differences between these two trend lines. As a result, there is not much difference between the two trend lines.
