1. How accurate was the demand forecast for the first quarter of 2005? First‚ is wise to make a comparison in the individual level‚ between the forecasts made for the year 2004 and the real demand. The Forecast overestimates the real demand in every single product. As it is shown in the tables above the average difference percentage in the individual level is higher that the difference percentage in the aggregate level.
