I’m not sure. D) standard deviation to the MAD sounds interesting too.

I’m leaning towards A) forecast to the MAD. It sounds logical.

MAD is Mean Absolute Deviation. So, B is right!

I feel confused about this one. What’s MAD again?

I think it's B) cumulative error to the MAD. Makes sense.

The forecast tracking signal is like a crystal ball for your forecasts. Option D must be the answer!
SU

Hmm, I'm not sure. Is the forecast tracking signal related to the MAD in some way? This is a tricky one.
HU
Hubert

D seems like the correct answer. The forecast tracking signal is the ratio of the standard deviation to the MAD.
ED

C looks good to me. The forecast tracking signal is the ratio of the cumulative error to the forecast.
VE

I’m pretty sure it’s not the standard deviation, but I can’t recall if it’s cumulative error or something else.
CH

I feel like I might be mixing up the definitions, but I thought the tracking signal was the forecast divided by the MAD.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think the answer was about the cumulative error to the MAD.
NO
Noble

I think the tracking signal is related to the cumulative error, but I'm not entirely sure if it's with the MAD or something else.

Hmm, I'm a bit stumped on this one. I know the forecast tracking signal is important, but I can't quite recall the exact formula. I'll have to use the process of elimination to narrow it down.

Ah, I've seen questions like this before. I'm pretty sure the forecast tracking signal is the ratio of the cumulative error to the forecast. Let me double-check that.

I remember learning about forecast tracking signals in class. I think it has to do with the cumulative error, but I'm a little fuzzy on the details. I'll have to review my notes.
ST
Stephen

It's B) cumulative error to the MAD.
VA
Vallie

I think the answer is B. The forecast tracking signal is the ratio of the cumulative error to the MAD.
BL

Okay, let's see. The forecast tracking signal is a ratio, so it's comparing two things. I'm guessing it has to do with the forecast and the MAD, but I'm not sure which ones exactly.
LA
Lavera

Hmm, this looks like it's testing my understanding of forecast tracking signals. I'll need to think through the definitions carefully.
AL
Allene

I feel like A is too simple, B seems more accurate.
JA
Jaclyn

Cumulative error sounds right, so B for me too.
CO
Corrinne

I’m leaning towards A, forecast to the MAD.
VI
Vincent

I think it's B, cumulative error to the MAD.
LA

I remember MAD is mean absolute deviation, so maybe D?
