Answer:

a small alpha value is used.

Explanation:

The exponential smoothing forecasting technique is used for forecasting a time series when there is no trend or seasonal pattern, but the mean of the time series is slowly changing over time.

The choice of the smoothing constant α (alpha) is important in determining the operating characteristics of exponential smoothing. The smaller the value of α (alpha), the slower the response. Therefore when a small alpha value is used the exponential smoothing forecasting technique slowly responds to changes in the mean level of demand.

When the values of α (alpha) are larger this makes the smoothed value to react quickly – not only to real changes but also random fluctuations.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

$1,500

Explanation:

For the computation of effect of the transaction first we need to find out the book value sold for which is shown below:-

Book Value sold for = Original cost of the furniture - Accumulated depreciation

= $18,000 - $10,000

= $8,000

Gain = $9,500 - $8,000

= $1,500

Therefore for computing the effect of the transaction we simply applied the above formula and as we can see that there is gain of $1,500
