Applying the MSE measure of forecast accuracy, would you prefer a smoothing constant of α = 0.1 or α = 0.2 for the gasoline sales time series? Do not round your interim computations and round your final answers to three decimal places.

α = 0.1 α = 0.2

b. Are the results the same if you apply MAE as the measure of accuracy? Do not round your interim computations and round your final answers to three decimal places.

α = 0.1 α = 0.2

MAE fill in the blank 4

What are the results if MAPE is used? Do not round your interim computations and round your final answers to two decimal places.

α = 0.1 α = 0.2
