We want to forecast sales for 2019 and 2020 using either a simple trend model or a quadratic trend model. Use a within sample forecasting technique to determine the best model using the RMSE measure discussed in lecture. Once this model has been determined, provide actual forecasts for 2019 and 2020. Report the two RMSE values in your pdf or fax submission along with the actual forecasts. Submit your Excel file used to create these answers
