are available to forecast time-series data that are stationary or that include no significant trend‚ cyclical‚ or seasonal effects. These techniques are often referred to as smoothing techniques because they produce forecasts based on “smoothing out” the irregular fluctuation effects in the time-series data. Three general categories of smoothing techniques are presented here: • Naive forecasting models are simple models in which it is assumed that the more recent time periods of data represent

GDP (INV) and Export as percentage of GDP (EXP) have been selected for judging the impact of public debt burden (DB) on these variables. The study period is 1980-81 to 2011-12. Augmented Dickey-Fuller test has been used to diagnose whether the time series data are non-stationary. Granger Causality test has been performed to identify whether DB can be used for prediction of GDP‚ MANF‚ INV and EXP‚ and vice-versa.

planning tool that helps management in its attempts to cope with the uncertainty of the future‚ relying mainly on data from the past and present and analysis of trends. Forecasting entails the use of historic data to determine the direction of future trends. Forecasting is used by companies to determine how to allocate their budgets for an upcoming period of time. This is typically based on demand for the goods and service it offers compared to the cost of producing them. Investors utilize forecasting

ABSTRACT Wheat is the staple food of people in Pakistan. Depending upon rapidly growing population‚ the wheat requirements vary from time to time that creates complications for policy makers. The main objective of the study was to forecast as accurately as possible‚ the population and wheat requirements in Punjab province for the year 2010-11. For this purpose a time series data regarding population‚ wheat production and wheat requirements were collected from the National statistics. An exponential smoothing
