storchak [24]

Answer:

The value of the settlement today = $231,897.79

Explanation:

The value of the settlement today is the sum of the present value (PV) of cash inflows discounted at the discount rate of 5.7 %.

Year PV

1 35,000 × 1.057^(-1) = 33112.58

2 39,000× 1.057^(-2) = 34907.16

3. 80,000× 1.057^(-3) = 67743.09

4 120,000 × 1.057^(-4) =96134.94

The Pv of the total cash in flow =33,112.58 + 34,907.17 + 67,743.09 + 96,134.95 = 231,897.79

The value of the settlement today = $231,897.79

Using the data set below, what would be the forecast for period 5 using the exponential smoothing method? Assume the forecast fo

elena55 [62]

Answer:

The answer is C: 14300

Note: The actual answer is 14296, and the closest to that was option C.

Explanation:

Formula to calculate forecast using Exponential smoothing:

$F_{t} = F_{t-1} + \alpha ( A_{t-1} - F_{t-1} )$

Where,

$F_{t}$ = New Forecast
$F_{t-1}$ = Previous period's forecast.
$\alpha$ = Smoothing Constant
$A_{t-1}$ = Previous period's Actual Demand.

Calculating the forecast for period 5:

Data:

$F_{5} = ?$
$F_{t-1} = 14000$
$\alpha = 0.4$
$A_{t-1} = 14750$

Putting values in the formula:

$F_{5} =$ $14000 + 0.4(14750-14000)$

$F_{5} = 14000 + 0.4 (740)$

$F_{5} = 14000 + 296$

$F_{5} = 14296$
