FORECASTING
TYPES,OF FORECASTING BASED ON TIME
 LONG TERM DECISIONS
- New Product Introduction
- Plant Expansion
 MEDIUM TERM DECISIONS
- Aggregate Production Planning
- Manpower Planning
- Inventory Policy
 SHORT TERM DECISIONS
- Production planning
- Scheduling of job orders
A Forecast of Demand is an essential Input for Planning
FORECASTING
- Objective
- Scientific
- Free from BIAS
- Reproducible
- Error Analysis Possible
PREDICTION
- Subjective
- Intuitive
- Individual BIAS
- Non - Reproducible
- Error Analysis Limited
OPINION POLLS
 Personal interviews e.g. aggregation of opinion of sales representatives to obtain
sales forecast of a region
- Knowledge base (experience) Subjective bias
 Questionnaire method
- questionnaire design
- choice of respondents
- obtaining respondents
- analysis and presentation of results (forecasting)
 Telephonic conversation
- Fast
 DELPHI
METHODS OF FORECASTING
Subjective or intuitive
methods
- Opinion polls, interviews
- DELPHI
Methods based on averaging
of past data
- Moving averages
- Exponential Smoothing
Regression models on
historical data
- Trend extrapolation
Causal or econometric
models
]Time - series analysis using
stochastic models
- Box Jenkins model
DELPHI
A structured method of obtaining responses from experts.
 Utilizes the vast knowledge base of experts
 Eliminates subjective bias and influencing by members through anonymity
 Iterative in character with statistical summary at end of each round (Generally 3
rounds)
 Consensus (or Divergent Viewpoints) usually emerge at the end of the exercise.

MOVING AVERAGES
K PERIOD MA = AVERAGE OF K MOST RECENT OBSERVATIONS
For instance :
3 PERIOD MA FOR MAY
= Demands of Mar, Apr, May / 3
= (199 + 208 + 121) / 3 = 206.33
EXPONENTIAL SMOOTHING
Simple average method
A simple average of demands occurring in all previous time periods is taken as the demand forecast for the next
time period in this method.
Simple Average :
A XYZ television supplier found a demand of 200 sets in July, 225 sets in August & 245 sets in September. Find the
demand forecast for the month of october using simple average method.
The average demand for the month of October is
Simple moving average method:
In this method, the average of the demands from several of the most recent periods is taken as the demand
forecast for the next time period. The number of past periods to be used in calculations is selected in the
beginning and is kept constant (such as 3-period moving average)
A XYZ refrigerator supplier has experienced the following demand for refrigerator during past five months.
Month Demand
February 20
March 30
April 40
May 60
June 45
Find out the demand forecast for the month of July using five-period moving average & three-period moving average
using simple moving average method.
Weighted moving average method:
In this method, unequal weights are assigned to the past demand data while calculating simple moving average
as the demand forecast for next time period. Usually most recent data is assigned the highest weight factor.
The manager of a restaurant wants to make decision on inventory and overall cost. He wants to forecast demand for
some of the items based on weighted moving average method. For the past three months he exprienced a demand
for pizzas as follows:
Month Demand
October 400
November 480
December 550
Find the demand for the month of January by assuming suitable weights to demand data.
Exponential smoothing method:
In this method, weights are assigned in exponential order. The weights decrease exponentially from most recent
demand data to older demand data
One of the two wheeler manufacturing company exprienced irregular but usually increasing demand for three
products. The demand was found to be 420 bikes for June and 440 bikes for July. They use a forecasting
method which takes average of past year to forecast future demand. Using the simple average method demand
forecast for June is found as 320 bikes (Use a smoothing coefficient 0.7 to weight the recent demand most
heavily) and find the demand forecast for August.
Regression analysis method:
In this method, past demand data is used to establish a functional relationship between two variables. One
variable is known or assumed to be known; and used to forecast the value of other unknown variable (i.e.
demand)
Farewell Corporation manufactures Integrated Circuit boards(I.C board) for electronics devices. The planning
department knows that the sales of their client goods depends on how much they spend on advertising, on account of
which they receive in advance of expenditure. The planning department wish to find out the relationship between their
clients advertising and sales, so as to find demand for I.C board.
The money spend by the client on advertising and sales (in dollar) is given for different periods in following table :
