Answer:

4

Explanation:

MAD , an acronym for mean absolute deviation is used to measure the accuracy of prediction by averaging the alleged error.

It is calculated through the average of absolute value.

Actual unit demand for three consecutive years of         121,    126,  135.

Respective forecasts for the same three years are       120,    120,  130

MAD value =(121-120) + (126-120) + (135-130)/3

                  = (1+6+5)/3 =4

Answer:

MAD value is \frac{32}{3}

Explanation:

Given that:

Actual unit demand for three consecutive years of         121,    126,  135.

The respective forecasts for the same three years are  120,    120,  130

=> The deviations are(actual - forecast):                             21 ,     6,      5

So the sum of deviations : 21+6+5 = 32

As we know that, to find MAD  we use the formula:

MAD = the sum of deviations / number of years

<=> MAD = 32 / 3 = \frac{32}{3}  

Hope it will find you well.

In many organizations, marketing does not have a place of importance in the organizational hierarchy. Why do you think this happ
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The correct answer is a combination of factors and is explained below.

Explanation:

On the one hand, the marketing area inside the companies tend to be left apart or not given much of the attention that they actual need inside the organization and that is<u> due to the fact that the business' owner or even the managers sometimes thinks that there is a major importance in the finances of the enterprise or even in the production and its current quality</u>.

On the other hand, the marketing function inside an organization should be taking care as much as the other functions due to the fact that it has a very huge importance in the selling process of the company and therefore in its number of sales during an amount of time. Moreover, those companies that do not focus so much effort in the marketing will probably have a great product with a good quality but <u>they would not acquire a big number of sales because they would not know how to sell the product and to whom</u>, furthermore they would <u>find themselves selling much less that does companies that have a simple product but a good marketing mix</u>.
