Answer: This Week's forecast = 78 appointments
Explanation:
4 Weeks ago = 95 , 3 Weeks ago =80 , 2 Weeks ago = 65 , last Week = 50
forecast : 2 weeks ago = 90
alpha = 0.20
exponential smoothing = recent previous appointment x a + forecast(1-a)
Forecast (last week) = 65 x 0.20 + 90 x (1 - 0.20)
Forecast (last week) = 13 + 72 = 85
Forecast for this week = 50 x 0.20 + 85 x (1 - 0.20)
Forecast for this week = 10 + 68 = 78
This Week's forecast would be 78 appointments
