Statistical Methods

The document discusses four statistical projection methods: 1) Arithmetic Straight-Line Method, which assumes annual increases will be the same; 2) Arithmetic Geometric Curve Method, which assumes the rate of increase is constant but the amount of change increases; 3) Statistical Straight-Line Method, which assumes the change in figures is uniform but the percentage change decreases; 4) Statistical Parabolic Curve Method, which assumes the modification in predicted values may decrease or increase based on the prior year's percentage change. Formulas for calculating projections are provided for each method.

CALCULATION OF STATISTICAL PROJECTION

Statistical forecasting implies the use of statistics based on historical demand and
supply data to project what could happen out in the future. The following mathematical
method will used in order to choose the projection method.

1. Arithmetic Straight-Line Method (ASLM)


Arithmetic straight-line method assumes that annual increase in the succeeding
years will be the same or increase in present is diminish.

FORMULA: Where:

𝒀𝒄 = 𝒂 + (𝒀𝒊 − 𝟏) Yc = Initial Value (1st year)

YN = Final Value (Last year)

𝒀𝑵 − 𝒀𝒄 Yi = Value for the year past


𝒂=
𝑵−𝟏
N = Number of Years

2. ARITHMETIC GEOMETRIC CURVE METHOD (AGCM)


Arithmetic geometric curve method assumes that the rate of increase in the
projected values is constant yet the amount of change keeps on increasing.

FORMULA: Where:

𝒀𝒊 + 𝟏 Yi + 1 = Value for the year ahead


𝒀𝒄 =
𝟏+𝒓
r = Average rate of increases

3. STATISTICAL STRAIGHT-LINE METHOD (SSLM)


Statistical straight-line method assumes that change in the figure is unvarying
while the change in percentage of the data for the year is decreasing.

FORMULA: Where:

σ𝒀 σ𝑿
𝒂= −𝒃ቆ ቇ
𝒏 𝒏
𝒀𝒄 = 𝒂 + 𝒃𝑿 𝒏 σ 𝑿𝒀 − σ 𝑿 σ 𝒀
𝒃= 𝟐
𝒏 σ 𝑿𝟐 − (σ 𝑿)

4. STATISTICAL PARABOLIC CURVE METHOD (SPCM)


Statistical parabolic curve assumes the modification in the predicted values may
be decreasing or increasing prior to the percentage change of the values for the prior year.

FORMULA: Where:

(σ 𝑿)𝟒 (σ 𝒀) − (σ 𝑿)𝟐 (σ 𝑿𝟐 𝒀)
𝒂=
𝟒 𝟐 𝟐
𝒏(σ 𝑿) − ൫σ 𝑿 ൯

𝒀𝒄 = 𝒂 + 𝒃𝑿 + 𝒄𝑿𝟐 σ 𝑿𝒀
𝒃=
σ 𝑿𝟐
𝟐 𝟐
𝒏൫σ 𝑿 𝒀൯ − (σ 𝑿 )(σ 𝒀)
𝒄=
𝟒 𝟐 𝟐
𝒏(σ 𝑿) − ൫σ 𝑿 ൯
