After plotting demand for four periods, a manager has concluded that a trend-adjusted exponential smoothing model is appropriate to predict future demand. The initial estimate of trend is based on the net chang.eof 30 for the three periods from I to 4, for an average of +10 units. Use ex = .5 and 13 = .4, and TAF of 250 for period 5. Develop forecasts for periods 6 through 10.
