5. [20 pts.] Historical data is often used in marketing to drive estimates of future demand. A common estimate (or forecast) used to predict future demand is the moving average. This forecasting method considers a weighted average where the m most recent observations receive the same weight, while all the remaining observations receive a weight of zero. Of course, the value of m is a parameter of the method, and it is up to the user to fine tune it...
