I can't figure out regression one and regression two predicted expenses. can you please help me.
Lexon Inc. is a large manufacturer of affordable DVD players. Management recently became aware of rising expenses resulting from returns of malfunctioning products. As a starting point for further analysis, Paige Jennings, the controller. wants to test different forecasting methods and then use the best one to forecast quarterly expenses for 2019. The relevant quarterly data for the previous three years follow: 2016 Quarter 2017 Quarter Quarter Return Expenses $ 14,100 12,700 13,000 Return Expenses $ 14,500 13,600 13,209 15,809 Return Expenses $ 15,000 13,900 13,700 16,589 The result of a simple regression analysis using all 12 data points yielded an intercept of $13,301.52 and a coefficient for the independent variable of $151.05. (R-squared=0.46, SE = $1,098.82.) Required: Plot the data in the order of the dates. (To earn full credit for this graph you must plot all required points for each curve. While plotting the points a tool icon will pop up. You can use this to enter exact co-ordinates for your points as needed.)
