Summary/Abstract: In the paper, the author presents the application of Hellwig’s method to the es-timation of the weights of combined forecasts. The empirical example, in which individual and combined forecasts are determined for economic variable with seasonal fluctuations, is the illustration of theoretical considerations. The accuracy of combined forecasts with Hellwig’s weights is compared with the accuracy of arithmetic mean of their component forecasts.
