Develop a simple regression model of forecast with the data given in the Table T2 and determine the mean squared error (MSE) of the model. (10 Marks) b. Calculate the monthly demand forecast for the 6-month period from January 2021 to June 2021 using 3-month simple moving average method. (06 Marks) C. Calculate the monthly demand forecast for the 6-month period from January 2021 to June 2021 using 4-month weighted moving average method. Use weights of 0.4,0.3.0.2 and 0.1, with heavier weights for more recent months. (06 Marks) d. Use exponential smoothing with smoothing parameter a = 0.4 and 0.2 to compute the demand forecast for January 2021. Use linear average for the first three months to forecast the demand of January 2020.
