5.6.1.3.3 Estimates of Future Observations Report

The Estimates of Future Observations Report, shown in Figure
5-9, provides estimates of the future observations of the
specified variables.  Because a LONG forecast type was
specified on the Profile and Trending Analysis control screen
shown in Figure 5-6, the future estimates are based on the
compound growth rates shown on the 11 MOS row of the reports
shown in Figures 5-7 and 5-8.  Like the Historical
Observations and the Growth Rate Reports, the headings and
page and column sequence of the reported data elements are
defined with the Profile and Trending Analysis control
screen.

These  reports  are  intended  to  provide  simple  sense  of
direction  estimates  for future values.  These estimates are
in no way statistically based forecasts, but rather provide
estimates based on historical growth rates.
