Question 14 of 39

Q.The multiplicative model of the time series with the components T,S,CT, S, C and II is :

(a) y=T+S×C×Iy = T + S \times C \times I
(b) y=T×S×C×Iy = T \times S \times C \times I
(c) y=T+S×C+Iy = T + S \times C + I
(d) y=T+S+C+Iy = T + S + C + I

The multiplicative time-series model treats the observed value as the product of Trend (TT), Seasonal (SS), Cyclical (CC) and Irregular (II) components: y=T×S×C×Iy = T \times S \times C \times I.

Reasoning. A time series has four components — Trend TT, Seasonal SS, Cyclical CC, and Irregular II. There are two standard models:

  • Additive model: y=T+S+C+Iy = T + S + C + I (used when components are independent of the trend level). …
