Monthly revenue for the past 20 months of all the products sold in the Health and Beauty Department of Green Corporation is contained in the Excel data file. Use that data to answer the following.

1. Obtain a Moving Average forecast of the data using 3 periods to get the moving average – i.e., MA3 forecast. Plot the results on one chart with the plots showing both the actual line and the MA3 line. Show the screenshot of the plot (copy as picture and paste) below. What is the MAD of this forecast? What is the MAPE?

2. Obtain the Exponential Smoothing (ES) Forecast using a = 0.25. Plot the results on one chart with the plots showing both the actual line and the ES forecast line. Show the screenshot of the plot (copy as picture and paste) below. What is the MAD of this forecast? What is the MAPE?

Hours Open Total Revenue (dollars) 1 $275 2 375 3 450 4 500 5 53 6 550 Ivan runs a custom jewelry shop in Sparkle City. He is debating whether he should extend his hours of operation. Ivan figures that his sales revenue will depend on the number of additional hours the jewelry shop is open as shown in the table above. He would have to hire a worker for those hours at a wage rate of $25 per hour. a) What does the word "marginal" mean in economics? What is a marginal benefit? What is a marginal cost? What is marginal analysis? b) Using marginal analysis, how many hours should Ivan extend his hours of operations? c) What is Ivan's marginal benefit if he decides to stay open for six hours instead of five hours? d) What is Ivan's marginal cost if he decides to stay open for six hours instead of five hours?

A company is using the breakeven chart to evaluate the decision of buying new machinery that will increase its fixed costs by $200,000 Below is the information of the company Variable cost per unit = $60 Total revenue = $1,360,000 Units sold = 8,500 units Total Cost = $710,000

a. Total fixed costs after increase of $200,000 is:

b. Total variable cost of the company:

c. New total costs after addition of $200,000

d. Breakeven point is equal to (after increase of fixed costs):

e. What is the margin of safety at an output level of 5,000 and the new TC after addition of $200,000? (Profit = Total revenue - Total costs)

f. If the company decided to lease a more advanced machine instead of buying the older one, the fixed cost will increase by $300,000 but the variable cost will decrease to be $40 per unit. Calculate the new break-even point (approximate)
