    Sir I don’t have a kit question, but I was curious abou when we calculate seosonal variations, we get different seasonal variations for same quarter like(year1 Q1, year2 Q1 and year3 Q1), so I know we deal with that to get average seasonal variation for same quarters.

    So when we are calculating that average we divide the same Q1 variations by 2 and not three even when it contains three years, so I wonder why? And how do we deal with it if the data is bigger like 5 years data.
    Thank you.

    If we have 3 years of seasonal variations then to get the average for each season we add up the total and divide by 3. This is exactly what I do in my free lecture.

    Similar if there are 5 years of seasonal variations, then to get the average we add them up and divide by 5.
