    In a time series analysis, the multiplicative model is used to forecast sales and the following seasonal variations
    apply:
    Quarter 1 2 3 4
    Seasonal variation 1.2 1.3 0.4 ?
    The actual sales values for the first two quarters of 2006 were:
    Quarter 1: $125,000
    Quarter 2: $130,000

    27.17 What is the seasonal variation for the fourth quarter?
    A –2.9
    B 0.9
    C 1.0
    D 1.1

    The seasonal variations using the multiplicative model must add up to 4. I do explain this in my free lectures.
