What is the forecasted sale of ice cream in the month of November using the 4-period moving averages?

Elenna [48]

Answer:

$10

Explanation:

The question is incomplete without the values of the sale that will enable one determine the forecasted sale for the month of November.

Moving averages are used to make predictions in such a way that you smoothen out monthly, seasonal or other periodic variations.

It is known as a 4 point moving average because the mean of four items of data is being found every time.

After finding the average of the first 4 data in the first one, the oldest piece of data is replaced by the newest one in each subsequent ones.

For instance: if for the month of January to December, we have sales ($) data of 5, 6, 4, 3, 8, 4, 10, 15, 6, 9, 6, 4.

The four point moving average for month 4 to month 12 would be as follows:

m4 = (5+6+4+3)/4 = 18/4 = 4.5

m5 = (6+4+3+8)/4

m6 = (4+3+8+4)/4

m7 = (3+8+4+10)/4

m8 = (8+4+10+15)/4

m9 = (4+10+15+6)/4

m10 = (10+15+6+9)/4 = 40/4 = 10

m11 = (15+6+9+6)/4

m12 = (6+9+6+4)/4

The forecast of sale in November is the forecast for month 11.

The forecast for month 11 is just the moving average for the month before that. That is, the moving average for month 10 = m10 = 10

Forecast for November sale = $10

Why did Americans begin to distrust private and public institutions (the government) less by the end of the 1960’s?

neonofarm [45]

One of the major reasons why Americans distrusted public institutions like the government was because of the publishing of the Pentagon Papers. This series of government documents that were supposed to be classified, essentially showed that the US federal government had been lying about the progress the US was making in the Vietnam War. These documents caused outrage all over the country, as thousands of American men were drafted into this military conflict for what seemed like a failed mission.

hichkok12 [17]

Indentured servants- Indentured servants made up a significant amount of the labor force when England first colonized the North American continent during the early 1600's. These servants would work 4-7 years for a farm owner who paid for their trip to North America. After the term of service was up, the servant would receive a piece of land to start their own farm on.

Nathaniel Bacon- Bacon was a farmer in Virginia who was upset with the Royal Governor, William Berkley, because Berkley refused to protect colonists during their altercations with Native Americans. Bacon felt that poorer colonists were not cared about by Berkley. This is why he organized a group and rebelled against the governor and his rules.

Mercantilism- This is an economic system in which one country uses another country/territory for natural resources. This was the economic system established by England in the North American continent. The British colonies were used for their natural resources, as a means to sell manufactured goods made in Britian, and as a reliable trade partner. All of this was meant to benefit Britain.
