Description
Focusing on the principal methods for analysis and forecasting, the text is designed to fit two types of course design, the traditional approach for a technical course, or the approach frequently used in business courses. Examples, exercises, problems, and small and large cases are provided to fit into either or both approaches. An instructor's manual is available which includes solutions, author's notes of each case and possible alternatives, and the programs used by the author.
