To improve the efficiency of the electric power generation, monthly maximum electric power consumptions for a next one year should be forecasted in advance and used as the fundamental input to the yearly electric power-generating master plan, which has a greatly influence upon relevant sub-plans successively. In this paper, we analyze the past 22-year hourly maximum electric load data available from KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Corporation) and select necessary data from the raw data for our model in order to reflect more recent trends and seasonal components, which hopefully result in a better forecasting model in terms of forecasted errors. After analyzing the selected data, we recommend to KEPCO the Winters' multiplicative model with decomposition and exponential smoothing technique among many candidate forecasting models and provide forecasts for the electric power consumptions and their 95% confidence intervals up to December of 1999. It turns out that the relative errors of our forecasts over the twelve actual load data are ranged between 0.1% and 6.6% and that the average relative error is only 3.3%. These results indicate that our model, which was accepted as the first statistical forecasting model for monthly maximum power consumption, is very suitable to KEPCO.

An accurate prediction of electricity supply and demand is important for daily life, industrial activities, and national management. In this paper electricity sales is predicted by time series modelling. Real data analysis shows the transfer function model with cooling and heating days as an input time series and a pulse function as an intervention variable outperforms other time series models for the root mean square error and the mean absolute percentage error.

One of the most crucial information at the hotel banquet is revenue data. Revenue forecast enables cost reduction, increases staffing efficiency, and provides information that helps maximizing competitive advantages in unforeseen environment. This research forecasts the hotel banquet revenue by utilizing ARIMA Model which was assessed as the appropriate forecast model for international researches. The data used for this research was based on the monthly banquet revenue data of G hotel at Seoul. The analysis results showed that SARIMA(2, 1, 3)(0, 1, 1) was finally presumed. This research implied that the ARIMA model, which was assessed as the appropriate forecast model, was applied for analyzing the monthly hotel banquet revenue data. Additionally, the research provides beneficial information with which hotel banquet professionals can utilize as a reference.
