After plotting demand for four periods, an emergency room manager has concluded that a trend-adjusted exponential smoothing model is appropriate to predict future demand. Use initial values for period 5 of 230.50 for S and 10.333 for T.

alpha = .25

beta = .35

obtain the forecasts for periods 5 through 8.

After plotting demand for four periods, an emergency room manager has concluded that a trend-adjusted exponential smoothing model is appropriate to predict future demand. Use initial values for period 5 of 230.50 for S and 10.333 for T. Use alpha of 0.25 and beta of 0.35. The demand for the first nine periods is: shown below. Obtain forecasts for periods five through eight. Period Demand 1 190 2 201 3 209 4 221 5 228 6 241 7 249 8 260 9 271 Keep at least two decimal points in all your calculations. More is fine but do not use less. Please note: The practice exam asked about TAF, S, and T. In the interest of time, the exam only asks about TAF so pay attention to this when answering the problems.
