METHODOLOGY FOR EVALUATING THE QUALITY OF THE PREDICTIONS OF CONSUMER DEMAND AND VOLUMES OF MINERAL-RAW MATERIAL RESOURCES PRODUCTION

Аннотация

The aim of the article is to develop theoretical and methodological foundations for improving
consumer demand forecasting and the volume of mineral resources production гтвук modern conditions in order to
identify priority areas for the mining industry development. The paper reveals the role and importance of forecasting
for consumer demand and the volume of production of mineral resources and identifies deficiencies in forecasting,
reducing the forecasts quality. As recommendations for improving the forecasting of consumer demand and the
volume of mineral resources production, the multi-criteria economic and mathematical models developed by the
authors are proposed for forecasting the volume of mineral resources production, taking into account the consumer
demand.
The value of work for economic science is that the forecasting of demand and production volumes is considered
in its close relationship. The practical significance of the work lies in the possibility of applying a set of models for
economic forecasting of demand and production volumes of mineral resources under the modern conditions.
