Scientific Methods of Forecasting in Economic Activity

The article describes scientific methods for forecasting economic activity, used to assess the likelihood of future events. Materials from various sources on scientific methods of forecasting collected and summarized to give a complete picture of existing scientific knowledge in this area. The advantages and disadvantages, strengths and weaknesses of various scientific forecasting methods derived in order to better understand which method May be most effective in a particular situation. Recommendations on the use of scientific forecasting methods are proposed, practical recommendations on the use of scientific forecasting methods in various fields such as finance, economics, marketing, etc. are generalized.

It is important to note that scientific forecasting methods are not strictly accurate and may contain errors due to the incompleteness of the data on which they based, as well as the complexity of the forecasting process itself. Therefore, scientific forecasting methods should be used with these limitations in mind and with the understanding that they are not strictly accurate. They are intended only as a guide and a tool to aid decision-making, but are not a guarantee of accuracy and are not a substitute for independent thought and analysis.
