Highline Financial Services, Ltd.

Highline Financial Services provides three categories of service to its clients. Managing partner Freddie Mack is getting ready to prepare financial and personnel hiring (or layoff) plans for the coming year.

He is a bit perplexed by the following printout he obtained, which seems to show oscillating demand for the three categories of services over the past eight quarters:

		Services
Year	Quarter	A	B	C
1	1	60	95	93
	2	45	85	90
	3	100	92	110
	4	75	65	90
2	1	72	85	102
	2	51	75	75
	3	112	85	110
	4	85	50	100

Examine the demand that this company has experienced for the three categories of services it offers over the preceding two years.

Assuming nothing changes in terms of advertising or promotion, and competition doesn't change, predict demand for the services the company offers for the next four quarters. Note that there are not enough data to develop seasonal relatives. Nonetheless, you estimates of demand. What general observations can you make regarding demand. What general observations can you make regarding demand? Should Freddie have any concerns? Explain.
