The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

​Bradley's Copiers sells and repairs photocopy machines. The manager needs weekly forecasts of service calls so that he can schedule service personnel. Use the actual demand in the first period for the forecast for the first week so error measurement begins in the second week. The manager uses exponential smoothing with α ​= 0.1 . Forecast the number of calls for week​ 6, which is next week. Week Actual Service Calls 1 2 3 4 5 The forecast for week 6 is ___ service calls. ​(Enter your response rounded to two decimal​ places.)

Solution :

It is given that :

The manager of Bradley's Copiers needs weekly forecast of the service calls so that the manager can schedule service personnel.

Using the \text{actual demand} for the 1st \text{period for the forecast} for the 1st week so as the error measurement begins in the second week.

The exponential soothing, α ​= 0.1

Week       Actual service calls     Forecast

1                    28                                 28

2                   34                             (28 + 0.1 x (28-28))  = 28

3.                  38                             (28 + 0.1 x (34-28))  = 28.60

4.                  27                             (28.60 + 0.1 x (38-28.60))  = 29.54

5.                  25                             (29.54 + 0.1 x (27-29.54))  = 29.29

6                                                    (29.29 + 0.1 x (25-29.29))  = 28.86

Therefore, the forecast for the week 6 = 28.86

Phoenix Guitars is interested in pursuing backward integration to take greater ownership of the extraction of raw materials and
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

In simple words, Regardless of the expense of making guitars, the technique reduces the total cost of manufacturing a instrument. Phoenix would be in the production business of instruments, not pickups.

The target of this technique is therefore the entire guitar, not really the pickups. The smaller the process of manufacturing their instruments, the better manoeuvrability they have on the market. When they have reduced costs, they may change rates downwards in order to capture further market penetration.

If d0 = $1.75, g (which is constant) = 3.6%, and p0 = $40.00, what is the stock's expected total return for the coming year?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

The answer is <u>"a. 8.13%".</u>

Explanation:

Given that;

d0 = $1.75

p0 = $40.00

g = 3.6% = 0.036

By using the formula;

Price of the stock = (Dividend this year)(1+g) ÷ (r - g)  

By putting the values;

40 = (1.75)(1+0.036) ÷ (r - 0.036)

r - 0.036 = (1.75)(1.036) ÷ 40

r - 0.036 = 1.813 ÷ 40

r - 0.036 = 0.045325

r = 0.045325 + 0.036

r = 0.081325 = 0.081325 x 100

<u>r = 8.13%</u>

The financial statements for Castile Products, Inc., are given below: Castile Products, Inc. Balance Sheet December 31 Assets Cu
Delicious77 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

1.

Working capital = Current Asset - Current Liabilities

= $569,000 - $280,000

= $289,000

2.

Current ratio  = Current Asset ÷ Current Liability

= $569,000 ÷ $280,000

= 2.03

3.

Acid-test (quick) ratio  = {(Current Asset - Inventory - prepaid expense) ÷ Current Liabilities }

= {{$569,000- $320,000 - $8,000) ÷ ($280,000)}

= 0.86 times

4.

Debt-Equity ratio   = Total Liability ÷ Shareholders' Equity

= $670,000 ÷ $759,000

= 0.88 times

5.

Times interest earned   = EBIT ÷ Interest Charges

= ($1,224,000 + $35,100) ÷ ($35,100)

= 35.87 times

6.

Average collection period

= 365 ÷ ($3,010,00 ÷ $215,000)

= 26 days

The $215,000 comes from

= ($210,000 + $220,000) ÷ 2

= $215,000

7. The average sales period is

= 365 ÷ ($1,110,000 ÷ $300,000)

= 99 days

The $300,000 comes from

= ($280,000 + $320,000) ÷ 2

= $300,000

8. The operating cycle is

= 99 days - 26 days

= 73 days
