Abstract
Forecasting and modeling economic activity in Puerto Rico, is fundamental to efficient and effective decision-making processes. Consequently, the failure to do so in Puerto Rico, in both the public and private sectors, bares high costs wich can be observed in the inefficiencies of each sector decision making. Based in economic theory as well as statistical and mathematical information processes, this paper presents an alternative method for modeling economic activity.By submitting a contribution to consideration of the Editorial Board of Fórum Empresarial, the authors attest that it is an original, unpublished work, which has not been nor will be simultaneously submitted to another journal for consideration and publication; that they are responsible for the work carried out and the content of the article; and they have the corresponding copyrights.
