The forecasting staff for the Prizer Corporation has developed a model to predict sales of its air-cushioned-ride snowmobiles. The model specifies that sales S vary jointly with disposable personal income Y and the population between ages 15 and 40, Z, and inversely with the price of the snowmobiles P. Based on past data, the best estimate of this relationship is S=kYZP where k has been estimated (with past data) to equal 100. If Y=11,000,Z=1,200, and P=20,000, what value would you predict for S? What happens if P is reduced to $17,500? How would you go about developing a value for k? What are the potential weaknesses of this model?

The Questor Corporation has experienced the following sales pattern over a 10-year period: Compute the equation of a trend line (similar to Equation 5.4) for these sales data to forecast sales for the next year. (Let 2004=0,2005=1, etc., for the time variable.) What does this equation forecast for sales in the year 2014? Use a first-order exponential smoothing model with a w of 0.9 to forecast sales for the year 2014.
Savings-Mart (a chain of discount department stores) sells patio and lawn furniture.
