Introduction: The revenue is the income obtained from the sale of products and services; it can also refer to any assets or capital related with the main operations of the firm before any expenses or costs are deducted.
a)
Expert Solution
Answer to Problem 14P
The revenue retrieval amount for GF Deluxe is $4.53.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
GF Deluxe:
| Part | Resale revenue per unit | Recycling revenue per unit |
| Disposal cost per unit |
| Metal frame | $3.27 | $4.78 | $1.05 | $0.85 |
| Battery | $0.00 | $3.68 | $6.18 | $3.05 |
| Motor housing | $3.93 | $2.95 | $2.05 | $1.25 |
| Trimmer head | $1.25 | $0.75 | $1.00 | $0.65 |
PM:
| Part | Resale revenue per unit | Recycling revenue per unit | Processing cost per unit | Disposal cost per unit |
| Metal frame | $3.18 | $3.95 | $1.15 | $0.65 |

- Scenario You have been given a task to create a demand forecast for the second year of sales of a premium outdoor grill. Accurate forecasts are important for many reasons, including for the company to ensure they have the materials they need to create the products required in a certain period of time. Your objective is to minimize the forecast error, which will be measured using the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) with a goal of being below 25%. You have historical monthly sales data for the past year and access to software that provides forecasts based on five different forecasting techniques (Naïve, 3-Month Moving Average, Exponential Smoothing for .2, Exponential Smooth for .5, and Seasonal) to help determine the best forecast for that particular month. Based on the given data, you will identify trends and patterns to create a more accurate forecast. Approach Consider the previous month's forecast to identify which technique is most effective.

Remember to select the forecasting technique that produces the forecast error nearest to zero. For example: a. Naïve Forecast is 230 and the Forecast Error is -15. b. 3-Month Moving Forecast is 290 and the Forecast Error is -75. c. Exponential Smoothing Forecast for .2 is 308 and the Forecast Error is -93. d. Exponential Smoothing Forecast for .5 is 279 and the Forecast Error is -64. e. Seasonal Forecast is 297 and the Forecast Error is -82. The forecast for the next month would be 230 as the Naïve Forecast had the Forecast Error closest to zero with a -15. This forecasting technique was the best performing technique for that month. You do not need to do any external analysis-the forecast error for each strategy is already calculated for you in the tables below.
