1. Consider the following data:

Month	Jan-14	Feb-14	Mar-14	Apr-14	May-14	Jun-14	Jul-14	Aug-14	Sep-14
Profit ($)	15,810	15,960	14,755	16,814	18,463	17,180	19,144	18,435	20,218

Step 1 of 4: Determine the three-period moving average for the next time period. If necessary, round your answer to one decimal place.

Step 2 of 4: Determine the three-period weighted moving average for the next time period with weights of3 (most recent),2 (second latest time period), and1 (oldest time period). If necessary, round your answer to one decimal place.

Step 3 of 4:Determine the exponential smoothing forecast for the next time period using a smoothing constant of 0.50. If necessary, round your answer to one decimal place.

2. Consider the following data:

Month	Jan-14	Feb-14	Mar-14	Apr-14	May-14	Jun-14	Jul-14	Aug-14	Sep-14
Profit ($)	16,416	16,566	15,355	17,420	19,063	17,240	19,138	18,501	20,290

Step 1 of 4:Determine the three-period moving average for the next time period. If necessary, round your answer to one decimal place.

Step 2 of 4: Determine the three-period weighted moving average for the next time period with weights of3 (most recent),2 (second latest time period), and1 (oldest time period). If necessary, round your answer to one decimal place.

Step 3 of 4: Determine the exponential smoothing forecast for the next time period using a smoothing constant of 0.30. If necessary, round your answer to one decimal place.
