Qualitative Forecasting Approaches Qualitative forecasting methods are based primarily on human judgement. Quantitative forecasting methods are based primarily on the mathematical modelling of historical data. Here we provide a brief overview of the most important qualitative forecasting approaches. In many environments the time horizon is closely linked to the type of forecasting method used. Longer term and higher level forecasting will often require qualitative forecasting techniques. Such techniques

logarithmic form. The log transformation allows the model to be less vulnerable to outliers in the data‚ and thus enables for a more precise forecasting model. Next the data series must be checked for trend and seasonality. Figure 1.1 shows the time series plot for the log transformation of oil imports in Germany from 1985M01 until 1996M12. [pic] Before fitting a trend and seasonal dummies to the model‚ we must include an intercept‚ because we are obviously not starting at 0. The time path of oil imports
