We are asked to compute seasonal indices using the simple average method and then deseasonalize the data. Let’s solve this step by step manually. --- ### Step 1: Compute annual totals and quarterly averages First, sum sales for each year: * 2011: 554 + 590 + 616 + 653 = 2413 * 2012: 472 + 501 + 521 + 552 = 2046 * 2013: 501 + 531 + 553 + 595 = 2180 * 2014: 403 + 448 + 460 + 480 = 1791 Now compute the annual average (total / 4 quarters): * 2011: 2413 ÷ 4 = 603.25 * 2012: 2046 ÷ 4 = 511.5 * 2013: 2180 ÷ 4 = 545 * 2014: 1791 ÷ 4 = 447.75 --- ### Step 2: Compute seasonal ratios (quarterly value ÷ annual average) Formula: Seasonal ratio = Quarter sales ÷ Annual average 2011: * Q1: 554 ÷ 603.25 ≈ 0.918 * Q2: 590 ÷ 603.25 ≈ 0.978 * Q3: 616 ÷ 603.25 ≈ 1.022 * Q4: 653 ÷
