The index level of 277.3 was 16.9 percent higher than in Khordad 1396. For the first 3 months of 1397, the PPI edged up 14.8 percent, compared to the similar period in 1396. This index moved up 12.0 percent for the 12 months ended in Khordad 1397. Agriculture, forestry and fishing: In Khordad, a 0.2-percent decrease in the prices of this group can be traced to the falls in the indices for eggplant, root vegetables, tomatoes, leaf vegetables and animal production. In contrast, prices for barley, cucumbers, dates, stone fruits, strawberries, Persian Gulf fish and hydrothermal fish went up. Manufacturing: The Manufacturing group index moved up 1.3 percent, which was mostly due to the rises in the indices for canned fish, processing and preserving of fruit and vegetables, manufacture of vegetable and animal oils and fats, manufacture of other food products n.e.c., alcohol-free beer, cigarettes, preparation and spinning of textile fibres, machine-made carpet, non-knitted, manufacture of leather and related products, manufacture of veneer sheets and wood-based panels, manufacture of household and personal hygiene paper and 1 cellulose wadding products, jet propulsion fuel (type 4), industrial carbon black, sulphur, paraxylene, propylene, propane, exported ammonia, manufacture of plastics and synthetic rubber in primary forms, pesticides and insecticides, manufacture of soap and detergents, industrial adhesive, manufacture of man- made fibres, manufacture of plastics products, glass, manufacture of refractory products, manufacture of plasters of calcined gypsum or calcined sulphate, cement pipe, asphalt, manufacture of basic iron and steel, staple copper, aluminium products, zinc ingot, zinc concentrated, burrow, wall-hung boiler, electrode, coffer, CD and DVD, gas regulator, electromotor and dynamo, transformer, cable, manufacture of domestic appliances, lift truck, manufacture of other general-purpose machinery, manufacture of motor vehicles and trailers. On the contrary, prices for slaughter poultry, sodium hydroxide, benzene, pyrolysis gasoline, urea and copper concentrate declined. Services: Increases in the indices of other passenger land transport, freight transport by road, air transport, short term accommodation activities, movie ticket, sports and recreation education, human health activities, and hairdressing and other beauty treatment mainly led to 5.1 percent rise in the services group. 2 Producer Price Index in Iran (1390=100) 310 290 270 250 3 Index Number Index 230 210 190 1394 1395 1396 1397 Period General Index Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Manufacturing Services Table 1 Producer Price Index in Iran Index Numbers and Their Percent Changes Khordad 1397 (1390 = 100) Index Percent Change Base Number Khordad 1397 Khordad 1396 Description Year in compared to compared to Weight Khordad previous similar month of previous similar month of 1397 month the previous year month the previous year General Index 100.00 277.3 2.2 16.9 0.4 8.7 Major Groups and Selected Subgroups: 1-Agriculture, forestry and fishing 17.12 295.4 -0.2 11.9 3.7 10.4 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities 16.48 296.1 -0.3 11.3 3.8 11.4 Growing of non-perennial crops 5.23 297.6 -1.5 6.9 6.7 10.1 Cereals 1.46 338.5 0.7 6.8 0.6 3.4 Oil seeds 0.12 382.5 0.0 10.7 0.0 6.8 Pulses 0.17 397.4 0.0 13.6 0.0 26.0 Melons 0.61 208.5 5.0 0.9 -3.2 3.1 Root vegetables 0.77 357.4 -5.4 11.7 36.3 23.5 Garden vegetables 0.72 236.0 -9.1 14.2 20.7 15.4 Leaf vegetables 0.13 217.0 -5.1 -11.9 6.7 0.1 Forage crops 0.41 229.4 0.4 21.3 -0.9 -12.9 Growing of perennial crops 4.40 292.4 2.8 5.2 1.9 4.8 Tropical and subtropical fruits 0.52 328.5 4.4 20.5 -10.3 26.5 Citrus fruits 0.68 374.0 0.0 4.4 0.0 4.3 Pome fruits 1.20 206.7 0.0 5.1 0.0 -1.5 Stone fruits 0.45 324.7 19.7 5.9 19.9 -2.4 Fresh nuts 0.69 375.1 0.0 7.2 0.0 -1.8 Animal production 6.85 297.3 -1.2 19.5 2.9 18.0 Raising of cattle and buffaloes 2.71 324.4 0.7 12.0 1.9 10.2 Raising of sheep and goats 1.98 317.3 -2.4 34.2 4.6 39.9 Raising of poultry 2.04 235.8 -4.1 17.0 2.3 13.0 Fishing and aquaculture 0.64 279.2 3.9 29.1 0.2 -15.6 Persian Gulf fish 0.29 266.8 3.4 25.0 3.6 2.6 Caspian Sea fish 0.03 486.9 0.0 41.4 0.0 -7.9 Aquaculture 0.32 269.1 5.1 30.7 -2.6 -28.6 2- Manufacturing 51.99 266.5 1.3 21.2 -0.9 7.6 Manufacture of food products 5.24 294.5 1.8 12.0 0.8 6.9 Processing and preserving of meat 0.40 337.7 -1.4 13.7 1.6 16.6 Processing and preserving of fish, crustaceans and molluscs 0.07 298.3 4.8 17.8 5.2 8.8 Processing and preserving of fruit and vegetables 0.52 407.7 5.7 19.2 0.8 8.5 Manufacture of vegetable and animal oils and fats 0.65 230.4 3.6 11.1 0.2 8.4 Manufacture of dairy products 1.18 297.4 1.3 7.9 0.6 6.4 Manufacture of grain mill products, starches and starch products 0.85 244.5 0.0 2.9 0.0 0.6 Manufacture of other food products 1.32 297.4 1.6 13.2 1.4 7.3 Manufacture of beverages 0.31 278.7 1.6 6.2 0.7 19.6 4 Table 1 (continued) Index Percent Change Base Number Khordad 1397 Khordad 1396 Description Year in compared to compared to Weight Khordad previous similar month of previous similar month of 1397 month the previous year month the previous year Manufacture of tobacco products 0.10 475.2 10.6 43.8 0.7 1.3 Manufacture of textiles 1.09 233.9 3.3 11.0 0.5 7.2 Spinning, weaving and finishing of textiles 0.55 233.8 4.9 13.1 0.8 5.9 Manufacture of other textiles 0.54 234.1 1.7 9.0 0.0 8.4 Manufacture of wearing apparel 0.11 342.9 2.3 7.3 0.2 3.1 Manufacture of leather and related products 0.12 329.2 4.0 10.5 0.6 6.1 Manufacture of wood and of products of wood and cork, except furniture;

    Proceedings of the 2010 International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Dhaka, Bangladesh, January 9 – 10, 2010 Model for Forecasting Passenger of Airport Farzane Ahmadzade Department of Industrial Engineering Islamic Azad University of Karaj Branch Karaj, Tehran, Iran Abstract This research forecasts the growth of air traffic in one of int’l airport. It actually estimates the growth of air traffic with the trend model, and then the growth is forecasted by monthly air traffic and time series data. To estimate the coefficient of the model in general econometric methods use the time series data, it is suggested that the data should be stationary, otherwise false regression would be probable. Then before using, the data (variables), the data should be tested so as to be stationary. However, there are different methods to make data stationary such as Drawing Diagram and Augmented Dickey- Fuller Test (ADF), which were used in this dissertation. Finally, the estimation is base on the fifth month, namely (Mordad). Keywords forecasting , Augmented Dickey Fuller Test (ADF),time series, stationary. 1. Introduction Civil Aviation, through a complicated interaction with other econometric sectors, benefits from and contributes to the economic development of all nations. As incomes and production level increase, the demand for aviation services expands. Therefore prospective tourism, trade and employment could be forecasted as well. Civil Aviation is an important instrument in economic development, and air transport also provides an intangible benefits by facilitating the international treaties and understanding. On the other, the role of air transport as a catalyst for general economic and social development is due to the expedition and flexibility, which has been provided by the global air transport system.

The point-to-point inflation rate in the month of Mordad2 of the year 1399 stood at 30.4 percent, that is to say, that the national households spent, on average, 30.4 percent higher than the month of Mordad of the year 1398 for purchasing “the same goods and services”. Moreover, in this month, the point-to-point inflation rate experienced a 3.5 percentage point increase in comparison with the previous month (Tir, the year 1399). The point-to-point inflation rate for the major groups of "food, beverages and tobacco" and "non-food items and services" were 26.0 percent (with a 5.0 percentage point increase) and 32.6 percent (with a 2.8 percentage point increase), respectively. This is while the point-to-point inflation rate for urban households stood at 30.6 percent, which has increased by 3.6 percentage points in comparison with the previous month. Moreover, this rate was 29.6 percent for rural households which increased by 3.7 percentage points in comparison with the previous month. Decrease in the Monthly National Households Inflation Rate The monthly inflation rate refers to the percentage change in the price index in comparison with the previous month. The monthly inflation rate in the month of Mordad of the year 1399 stood at 3.5 percent, which decreased by 2.9 percentage points in comparison with the previous month (Tir, the year 1399).

  • RIVIVAL of the ANCIENT ZARATHUSHTI CALENDAR 3753 Ze
    UNIFIED ZARATHUSHTI CALENDAR RIVIVAL OF THE ANCIENT ZARATHUSHTI CALENDAR 3753 ze “I learn about and work with the solar year, the righteous period”. Yasna Ha1.9, Ha 3.11, Ha 4.14 THE ANCIENT MAZDIYASNI CALENDAR updated by Zarathushtra was the most accurate calendar that has ever existed in the civilized world to this day. The year always started with the Vernal Equinox whereby the leap year was automatically taken care of. Its accuracy was further strengthened by dividing into months the number of days of each individual season marked by the position of the earth in its orbit round the sun. The proof of this is in the four festivals that are celebrated to this day. 1- Vernal Equinox the beginning of Spring as New Year – Now Rooz 2- Summer Solstice the beginning of Summer as Tirgan 3- Autumnal Equinox the beginning of Fall as Mehregan 4- Winter Solstice the beginning of winter as Yalda (Deygan) These four positions and the four seasons although they may seem to be of equal length, in reality they are not equal. The path of the earth around the sun is such that it does not divide the time taken to travel, from one position to another, into four equal parts as one would ordinarily believe. In fact none of the four parts are equal. Spring has 92.8 days, Summer 93.6 days Autumn 89.9 days and winter 88.9 days. Each individually divided works out to 31 days each for the first six months, the next 5 months of 30 days and the last month of the balance of the days before the Vernal Equinox which is 29 and automatically 30 every fourth years.
