Consider the applications for home mortgages data in the file
of P12_04.xlsx.
Create a time series chart of the dat
Use simple exponential smoothing to forecast these data, using
the default smoothing constant of 0.1
Calculate the three types of forecast errors, RMSE, MAE, and
MAPE
Use the solver function in excel to optimize the smoothing
constant in order to generate a minimum MAPE value.
Use multiple regression to develop an equation that can be used
to predict future applications for home mortgages (hint: use dummy
variables for the quarters and create a time variable for the
quarter numbers)
