If you were using a simple exponential smoothing forecast model (alpha value equal to 0.30) that generated a forecast of 25.10 u

nits for the most recently completed week, which has observed a demand of 31 units, what would be your forecast of demand for the upcoming week?

The simple exponential smoothing is a method suitable for predicting data with no style or seasonal pattern. While in Moving Averages the past observations are weighted similarly, Exponential Smoothing allocates exponentially lessening weights as the observation get older.

<span>Forecast for upcoming week = 25.10 + 0.3 (31 – 25.10) = 26.87</span>

Question 1
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think it's A.

You should always question the source. You might be lucky and discover what they've not said about their product. Or you may discover it is simply not true.

A few years back (many in fact), there was a product on the market call Laetrile. It was produced from peach pits. It has an overwhelming popularity that Sloan Kettering (the Cancer Clinic in New York -- the oldest and largest one in the world), spent some of their needed grant money  to test Laetrile. The results -- nothing. Imagine what happened to those who marketed this product.  Word got around. People with Cancer are pretty desperate. They and their loved ones will try anything.

But the facts on the internet help to dispel this kind of thing.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

a. Determine the amount Stoll should report on its December 31, 2017, balance sheet for its long-term investments in available-for-sale securities.

  • Company B notes $82,300
  • Company C bonds $603,800
  • Company X bonds $120,000
  • Company Z notes $276,000

b. (same as c.)Prepare any necessary December 31, 2017, adjusting entry to record the fair value adjustment for the long-term investments in available-for-sale securities.

  • Dr Company B notes 4,800
  •     Cr Unrealized gain on Company B notes 4,800 (= $82,300 - $77,500)

  • Dr Unrealized loss on Company C bonds 38,340 (= $603,800 - $642,140)
  •    Cr Company C bonds 38,340

  • Dr Unrealized loss on Company X bonds 2,100 (= $120,000 - $122,100)
  •    Cr Company X bonds 2,100

  • Dr Company Z notes 8,100
  •     Cr Unrealized gain on Company Z notes 8,100 (= $276,000 - $267,300)

Explanation:

beginning of the year                cost                  fair value

Company A bonds                $534,100             $492,000

Company B notes                  $159,140              $155,000

Company C bonds               $662,400              $642,140

since available for sale assets must be recorded at fair value, we must assume that the company prepared the adjusting entries at the end of the previous year (unrealized gains or losses):

Jan. 29 Sold one-half of the Company B notes for $78,820.

Dr Cash 78,820

    Cr Company B notes 77,500

    Cr Gain on sale of Company B notes 1,320

July 6 Purchased bonds of Company X for $122,100.

Dr Company X bonds AFS 122,100

    Cr Cash 122,100

Nov. 13 Purchased notes of Company Z for $267,300.

Dr Company Z bonds AFS 267,300

    Cr Cash 267,300

Dec. 9 Sold all of the bonds of Company A for $524,800.

Dr Cash 524,800

    Cr Company A notes 492,000

    Cr Gain on sale of Company B notes 32,800

Using the continuous compounding equation, if someone invested $5,000 at an interest rate of 3.5%, and someone else invested $5,
UNO [17]

Answer:

Therefore after 16.26 unit of time, both accounts have same balance.

The both account have $8,834.43.

Explanation:

Formula for continuous compounding :

P(t)=P_0e^{rt}

P(t)=  value after t time

P_0= Initial principal

r= rate of interest annually

t=length of time.

Given that, someone invested $5,000 at an interest 3.5% and another one  invested $5,250 at an interest 3.2% .

Let after t year the both accounts have same balance.

For the first case,

P= $5,000, r=3.5%=0.035

P(t)=5000e^{0.035t}

For the second case,

P= $5,250, r=3.5%=0.032

P(t)=5250e^{0.032t}

According to the problem,

5000e^{0.035t}=5250e^{0.032t}

\Rightarrow \frac{e^{0.035t}}{e^{0.032t}}=\frac{5250}{5000}

\Rightarrow e^{0.035t-0.032t}=\frac{21}{20}

\Rightarrow e^{0.003t}=\frac{21}{20}

Taking ln both sides

\Rightarrow lne^{0.003t}=ln(\frac{21}{20})

\Rightarrow 0.003t}=ln(\frac{21}{20})

\Rightarrow t}=\frac{ln(\frac{21}{20})}{0.003}

\Rightarrow t= 16.26

Therefore after 16.26 unit of time, both accounts have same balance.

The account balance on that time is

P(16.26)=5000e^{0.035\times 16.26}

              =$8,834.43

The both account have $8,834.43.
