Average movement in trend = (57 – 30)/(8-1) = 3.86
Forecast = 57 + (3.86 x quarters after from Q1 year 7) + seasonal variation
Q4 = 57 (3.86 x 2) – 14 = 50.72 or 51
Q1 = 57 + (3.86 x 3) – 18 = 50.58 or 51
Using the moving average method, we can assume that the predicted sales for the final quarter of year 7
will be lower than those for the third quarter. However, the first quarter of the following year, year 8, will be greater
than every previous year's first quarter.
