The values in
D 7 are subtracted from (additive model) or divided into (multiplicative model)
D 1 ; values that are not identical to the corresponding entries in
D 8 are then reported. Also, for each month, the year-to-year difference (additive model) or percent change (multiplicative mode) in the estimates of the irregular and the seasonal components and their ratio (called MSR, moving seasonality ratio) are computed. The MSR may be useful in order to determine the amount of moving seasonality present in each month.
