  8. Short Questions and Multiple choices 11. The 5-period moving average in month 6 was 150 units. Actual demand in month 7 is 180 units. What is 6 period moving average in month 7? MA56 = (A6+A5+A4+A3+A2)/5 MA67 = (A7+A6+A5+A4+A3+A2)/6 MA56= (A6+A5+A4+A3+A2)/5 = 150 A6+A5+A4+A3+A2 = 750 A7 = 180 MA67= (A7+A6+A5+A4+A3+A2)/6 MA67 = (180+750)/6 = 155

  10. Short Questions and Multiple choices 13. Suppose the 5-period moving average in period 20 is equal to 800. Suppose period 16 demand is 850. Also suppose the demand for period 21 is 900. Compute 5-period moving average for period 21. +A16)/5 = ( MA520 = (A20+A19+A18+A17+A16)/5 MA520 = (A20+A19+A18+A17+A16)/5 =800 = ( +850)/5 =800 +850 =4000 =3150 = ( +A21)/5 MA521 = (A21+ A20+A19+A18+A17)/5 =??? MA521 = (A21+ A20+A19+A18+A17)/5 = ( +900)/5 = ( 3150+900)/5 =810 MA521= MA520+(A21- A16)/5 MA521= 800 +(900- 850) /5=810

  11. Problem 1- Moving Average, t to t+1 Using the following data you can compute 4-period and 7-period moving averages in period 20. t 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 At 658 864 1110 634 855 738 910 (658+864+1110+634+855+738+910)/7 = 824.14 (634+855+738+910)/4 = 784.25 Now suppose you do not have the actual data. You only the demand for period 21 to be 800, 4-period moving average in period 20 to be 784.25, and 7-period moving average in period 20 to be 824.14. Can you compute 7-period moving average and 4 period moving average in period 21 without using the original data?

  12. 7-period moving average at periods 20, and 21 Let us first check how do we compute 7-period moving average using all the available data MA720 = (A14+A15+A16+A17+A18+A19+A20)/7 MA720 = (658+864+1110+634+855+738+910)/7 = 824.14 MA720 = (658+864+1110+634+855+738+910)/7 = 824.14 Demand for period 21 is 800 MA721= (864+1110+634+855+738+910+800)/7 = 844.43 MA721= (864+1110+634+855+738+910+800)/7 = 844.43 MA720 = (864+1110+634+855+738+910)/7 + (658)/7 = 824.14 MA721 = (800 )/7 + ( 864+1110+634+855+738+900)/7=844.43 Therefore, we can compute MA721 , in the following simple way MA721 = MA720 +(A21- A14)/7 MA721 = 824. 14 +(800- 658) /7=844.43

  13. Problem 1- Moving Average, t to t+1 Given the same data t 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 At 658 864 1110 634 855 738 910 But suppose you do not have access to all the data. Suppose you only know that the 4-Period moving average in month 20 is 824.14, the actual demand for period 17 is 634, and the demand for period 21 is 800. Can you compute 4-period moving average for period 21 without using other data?

  14. 4-period Moving Average at Periods 20 and 21 MA420 = (634+855+738+910)/4 = 784.25 MA420 = (634+855+738+910)/4 = 784.25 MA420 = (855+738+910+800)/4 = 825.75 MA420 = (855+738+910+800)/4 = 825.75 Therefore, we can compute MA421 , in the following simple way MA421 = MA420 +(A21- A17)/4 MA421 = 784.25 +(800- 634) /4=825.75 In general ( the data of period t minus the data of period t-n) / n In Moving Average forecasting always F(t+1) = MAt F22= MA21

  15. Problem 2- MAD and TS Actual and forecast data are available from period 1 to period 10. In period 10: MAD = 110 and TS = 2.2, Forecast for period 11 is 1210 (F11=1210) , Actual demand in Period 11 is 1100 (A11=1100). Compute MAD in period 11. First Lets look at MAD in Period 10 MAD = Sum |A-F| /n 110 = Sum |A-F| /10 Sum |A-F| = 1100  Sum |A-F| from period 1 to 10 = 1100 In period 11, A-F = 1100 -1210 = -110 Sum |A-F| from period 1 to 11 = 1100 + 110 = 1210 MAD in period 11 = Sum |A-F| /11 MAD in period 11 = 1210/11 = 110

  16. Problem 2- MAD and TS Actual and forecast data are available from period 1 to period 10. In period 10: MAD = 110 and TS = 2.2, Forecast for period 11 is 1210 (F11=1210) , Actual demand in Period 11 is 1100 (A11=1100). MAD in Period 11 = 110. Compute TS in period 11. First Lets look at TS in Period 10 TS = Sum(A-F)/MAD 2.2 = Sum(A-F)/110  Sum (A-F) from period 1 to 10 = 242 (A-F) in period 11 = 1100-1210 = -110 Sum (A-F) from period 1 to 11 = 242 -110 = 132 TS = Sum(A-F)/MAD Sum(A-F) in Period 11 = 132 MAD in Period 11 = 110 TS in Period 11 = 132/110 = 1.2

  17. Problem 3- Tracking Signal, UCL and LCL What are the reasonable values for UCL and LCL in Tracking Signal? At is Actual and Ft is forecast of a random variable such as demand. Forecast error (A random Variable) Et =At-Ft has mean of 0. MAD provides an estimate for the standard deviation of Et. StdDev (Et) = 1.25 MAD. See for example http://www.estepsoftware.com/papers/madrsquare.pdf Et = Normal (0,1.25MAD) If x = Normal(µ,σ)  Sum (x) = Normal(Nµ, √N σ) StdDev [Sum(Et)] = √NStdDev (Et)

  18. Problem 3- Tracking Signal, UCL and LCL Et = Normal (0,1.25MAD) Sum (Et) = Normal (0, √N 1.25MAD) 3 ≥ (Et -0)/N 1.25 MAD ≥ -3. + 3n 1.25 ≥ (Et -0)/MAD ≥ - 3N 1.25. + 3.75N≥ (Et -0)/MAD ≥ - 3.75N. Tracking Signal TS= Et/MAD with samples of size N is distributed normally around 0 with UCL = 3.75N and LCL =-3.75N
