Model B demand of Arial bundle cables shows a
small trend and high seasonal variations
with seasonal length 12. Two models
SARIMA (0, 0, 0) (0, 1, 1)12 and SARIMA
(0, 0, 0) (0, 1, 1)12 was fitted for the data.
Both models were identified as adequate
models and SARIMA (0, 0, 0) (0, 1, 1)12 was
used for forecasting with an accuracy of
68%.
