Café Michigan's manager, Gary Stark, suspects that demand for mocha latte coffees depends on the price being charged. Based on historical observations, Gary has gathered the following data, which show the numbers of these coffees sold over six different price values: Price $2.60 Number Sold 765 $3.40 510 $2.10 980 $4.20 240 $3.20 315 $4.05 475 Using simple linear regression and given that the price per cup is $1.75, the forecasted demand for mocha latte coffees will be cups (enter your response rounded to one decimal place).

Hiroshi Sato, an owner of a sushi restaurant in San Francisco, has been following an aggressive marketing campaign to thwart the effect of rising unemployment rates on business. He used monthly data on sales ($1,000s), advertising costs ($), and the unemployment rate (%) fromJanuary 2008 to May 2009 to estimate the following sample regression equation: Sales(t) = 17.51 +0.05 Advertising Costs(t-1) – 0.70 Unemployment Rate t-1 Requirement: a. Hiroshi had budgeted $620 toward advertising costs in May 2009. Make a forecast in June2009, if the unemployment rate in May 2009 was 9.1%b. What will be the forecast if he raises his advertisement budget to $700?c. Reevaluate the above forecast if the unemployment rate in May 2009 was 9.5%.
