Abstract

This study aims to compare the methods for forecasting the gold ornaments selling price between the Box-Jenkins method, Holt’s method, Brown’s method, and the damped trend method. The average monthly gold ornaments selling prices used to create the model were obtained from the Gold Traders Association from January 2012 to May 2022. For the comparison of the reliability of the forecasting methods, the minimum mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) criterion was used. The results of comparing the forecast value with the gold ornaments selling prices from June to November 2022 found that the Box-Jenkins method had the lowest error. The forecast model was as follows: gif.latex?\hat{Y} = Yt-1 + 0.33963et-1 where Yt-1 represented the gold ornaments selling price at time t – 1 and et-1 represented the error at time t – 1.
