Explanation / Answer

Strategy for coming up with the forecast will be based on the past trend of previous two years and how each parameters have performed.There are variances in each of the parameter because what we forecast is not what the desired result we get. I will go with information on product costs, expenses, and potential market or price fluctuations that we can anticipate in the forecasted year.There will be some static element which won't change and they will only increase upto a fixed percentage like R&D, employee salary, depreciation cost, tax liability etc, but regarding the sales forecast we have to look into the market dynamics and which factors can move the sales.
