the mean absolute deviation (mad) for the forecasts shown in the following table is:

monthforecast demandactual demand
may175200
june190200
july240220
august225195

more than 10 but less than or equal to 20.
more than 20 but less than or equal to 30.
more than 30 but less than or equal to 40.
more than 40 but less than or equal to 50.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate absolute deviations

$|190 - 180|=10$, $|175 - 200| = 25$, $|190 - 200|=10$, $|240 - 220| = 20$, $|225 - 195|=30$

Step2: Sum absolute deviations

$10 + 25+10 + 20+30=95$

Step3: Calculate MAD

The number of data - points $n = 5$. MAD=$\frac{95}{5}=19$

Answer:

more than 10 but less than or equal to 20.
