The exponential soothing, α = 0.1
Week Actual service calls Forecast
1 28 28
2 34 (28 + 0.1 x (28-28)) = 28
3. 38 (28 + 0.1 x (34-28)) = 28.60
4. 27 (28.60 + 0.1 x (38-28.60)) = 29.54
5. 25 (29.54 + 0.1 x (27-29.54)) = 29.29
6 (29.29 + 0.1 x (25-29.29)) = 28.86

Answer:
12.38% decrease
Explanation:
Given the following parameters
6%
Number of years = 12
Market yield I= 6 === 4.5
Present Value = 916.16 == 1045.59
PMT (annuity payment) = 50 (5%x1000)
Future value = 1000
Therefore, to solve for the percentage change, we have in the price of this bond in this situation, we have (916.16-1045.59) / 1045.59 = -0.1238
