Answer:
a. 41.6 million
b. 42.28 million
Explanation:
A) GIven
forecast in june = Sjune = 42 million
Checks recived in june = Xjune = 40 million
Smoothing constant = a = 0.2
So for july
Sjuly = a*Xjune + (1-a)*Sjune
=0.2*40 + (1-0.2)*42 million
=8+33.6 = 41.6 million
B) forecast in july = Sjuly = 41.6 million
Checks recived in july = Xjuly = 45 million
Smoothing constant = a = 0.2
So for August
Saugust = a*Xjuly + (1-a)*Sjuly
=0.2*45 + (1-0.2)*41.6 million
=9+33.28 = 42.28 million
<em>Note: This uses an exponential smoothing to forecast the results, but from the number of checks recived we see that it increases linearly. So we need a linear forecasting method .</em>

Answer:
The answer is 'One product and multiple market segments'

The market segmentation strategy here is One product and multiple market segments.
The product is one product(the magazine story) and this one product (same story) covers 16 different regions of the U.S i.e the same product is selling in 17 market segments.
The advantage of this strategy is that it helps to avoid the additional costs of developing and producing additional versions of the product.
