this passage require Analysis and breakdown


Moving averages is a forecasting method that uses the average of the k most recent data values in the time series as the forecast for the next period (Anderson, Sweeney, Williams, Camm, Cochran, Fry, & Ohlmann). This approach can be used when the company requires immediately forecasting for a massive volume of data. Exponential smoothing a forecasting method that uses a weighted average of past time series values as the forecast; it is a special case of the weighted moving averages method in which we select only one weight—the weight for the most recent observation. While Weighted moving averages a forecasting method that involves selecting a different weight for the k most recent data values in the time series and then computing a weighted average of the values, the sum of the weights must equal one (Anderson, Sweeney, Williams, Camm, Cochran, Fry, & Ohlmann).
The error measures are the mean square error (MSE), Mean absolute deviation (MAD), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). These errors will be used in the previous forecasting methods, where the least methods of errors will be considered the best forecasting techniques.

Sometimes when the U. S. economy starts pulling out of a recession, the unemployment rate actually rises for a time rather than immediately falling. This is commonly referred to as a "jobless recovery". There are 2 reasons for this strange phenomenon occurring. What are the 2 reasons? Explain. (Hint: Refer to the Extra PPT on Unemployment and Chapter 6 of the course text! You could also do an Internet search for "What is a jobless recovery?"!)

Additional questions to answer within this question:

Do ALL unemployed workers IMMEDIATELY find jobs when recovery begins? Why or why not?

Do some firms automatically hire new recently unemployed workers or do some have existing
workers who were not unemployed work more hours to increase production?

Do ALL“discouraged workers” who had left the labor force (and hence are NOT counted as
unemployed since they’re NOT actively looking for work) get jobs IMMEDIATELY
after coming back into the labor force when recovery begins?
