Samwell Subaru, a Dallas based car dealership, delivers every month two different 6-month sales forecasts to manufacturing headquarters (MHQ).

Which forecast accuracy measure should be used to evaluate different forecasting methods

Answer:

"MSE (Mean Squared Error)" is the appropriate answer.

  • The use of MSE means that rather than a big one, an individual would like to have many minor differences.
