smoothing methods allow a smoothing parameter to change over time‚ in order to adapt to changes in the characteristics of the time series. However‚ these methods have tended to produce unstable forecasts and have performed poorly in empirical studies. This paper presents a new adaptive method‚ which enables a smoothing parameter to be modelled as a logistic function of a user-specified variable. The approach is analogous to that used to model the time-varying parameter in smooth transition models. Using

variable through time. The use of this method requires a long and reliable time series data. The trend projection method is used under the assumption that the factors responsible for the past trends in variables to be projected (e.g. sales and demand) will continue to play their part in future in the same manner and to the same extend as they did in the past in determining the magnitude and direction of the variable. There are three (3) techniques of trend projection based on time – series data.

There are various types of forecasting methods such as: Qualitative study‚ Time series analysis‚ Causal method etc. For this particular assignment‚ we have used some methods of Time series analysis like Simple Moving Average‚ Single Exponential Smoothing‚ and Regression Analysis etc. Various models‚ mostly quantitative time series models have been used to determine the forecasted future monthly sales quantity of Laptops for the month of November 2013
