Suppose that Glitter Gulch, a gold mining firm, increased its sales revenues on newly mined gold from $100 million to $300 million between one year and the next. Assuming that the price of gold increased by 100 percent over the same period, by what numerical amount did Glitter Gulch's real output change? If the price of gold had not changed, what would have been the change in Glitter Gulch's real output?
Imagine you've just started a small business, and you just launched your social media page for your business. You're curious about how many "likes" other similar new small businesses get on their posts, so you collect data from 19 similar new businesses on the number of likes they received on their most recent post and you found the following answers: Likes Received on Similar Pages 320 320 340 340 345 345 350 350 350 350 350 350 350 355 355 360 360 375 375
John Kittle, an independent insurance agent, uses a five-year moving average to forecast the number of claims made in a single year for one of the large insurance companies he sells for. He has just discovered that a clerk in his employ incorrectly entered the number of claims made four years ago as 1,400 when it should have been 1,200.a. What adjustment should Mr. Kittle make in next year’s forecast to take into account the corrected value of the number of claims four years ago?b. Suppose that Mr. Kittle used simple exponential smoothing with a = .2instead of moving averages to determine his forecast. What adjustment is now required in next year’s forecast? (Note that you do not need to know the value of the forecast for next year in order to solve this problem.)
