Box and Jenkins (1970) were the first to approach the task of estimating an ARMA model in a
systematic manner. There are five steps to their approaches which include identification,
estimation and the model diagnostic checking, forecasting and evaluation.

DATA COLLECTION- The data used in this study were the series of quarterly electricity
consumption of the Philippines in millions of pesos, across the period from January 2000 to
December 2017. The data were collected from Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA).
The data are divided into two subsets: a training set January 2000-December 2011 and the test set
January 2012- December 2017. The training set was used to learn the forecast and the testing set
was used to test the reliability of the train set.
DIAGNOSTIC CHECKING- after model identification and estimation, the researchers must
check the White Noise of the data. White Noise needs Identical Independent Distribution (IID)
normal. This means that it has the same distribution and same parameter distribution.
WHITE NOISE- White Noise needs Identical Independent Distribution (IID) to be normal. This
means that the data has the same parameters of distribution. The Shapiro-Wilks Test with the p-
value of 0.4596 shows that there is normal distribution with the model derived.
