The following table shows a tool and die company's quarterly sales for the current year. What sales would you predict for the 1 quarter of next year?
Quarter relatives are q1 = 1.1, q2 = 0.99, q3 = 0.9 and q4 = 1 (Round the answer near to the whole number)

quarter 1 2 3 4
sales 99 102 104.4 129

Answer is 156 (T*S)

But i want to know in which way i can get this answer.

Inputs are welcome!
