The purpose of this study was to develop, test and evaluate simple math ematical time series forecasting models to predict covers in a commercial foodservice environment. Total covers were selected as the focus of this research because they have been identified as the most common forecast numbers for food sales forecasts within hotel food and beverage operations (Schmidgall, 1989). Key Words: Forecasting, foodservice, mathematical (time series) models, hospitality management.
