Time Series (TS) forecasting methods are tested and enhanced. Such enhancement is increasing the power of TS abilities, which is served to respond to business future estimation requirements. In this paper, an investigation for TS methods distinction is implemented. Four TS methods are applied to forecast the next five years of clients’ rates of two Yemeni’s communication companies.
