Question:

Refer to the annual U.S. craft beer production time series, Exercise 14.7.

a. Calculate the exponentially smoothed series for U.S. beer production for the period 2004-2015 using w = .2.

b. Calculate the exponentially smoothed series using w = .8.

Exponentially Smoothed Series (w = .5) Month Jan Feb Mar 280 281 250 3 265.3 Apr May Jun 4 246 239 218 218 210 255.6 Jul

c. Plot the two exponentially smoothed series (w = .2 and w = .8) on the same graph. Which smoothed series best portrays the long-term trend?
