Question: Q 3 ) Adaptive Smoothing of an Exponential Forecasting method. Use the same Forecast Error Measurement you used in Q 2 ) - c )

Q3)Adaptive Smoothing of an Exponential Forecasting method.
Use the same Forecast Error Measurement you used in Q2)-c)) to find the Best smoothing parameter \(\alpha \) of the Exponential Smoothing Forecast Method, assuming an initial forecast for May 2021 is 500.
Note: The Best smoothing parameter \(\alpha \) is the value that will lead to the Smallest forecast error measurement.
Q4) Tracking Signal
Use the Linear Trend forecasts method (Q2)-c)), calculate the Tracking Signal for forecasts from January 2021 to December 2024, plot the Tracking Signal Chart (assuming control limits \( C=3\), and \(-C=-3\)), then make a conclusion on whether or not the forecasts are Biased when applied the Linear Trend method to the collected historical data.
