Option #1: Operations Management Forecasting for Retail and Real Estate Industries

Solve the following forecasting problems at the end of Chapter 4 in the Heizer & Render (2014) textbook:

• 4.23 a, b, and c.
• 4.35 a, b, c, and d.

You may solve the problems using: (a) pencil, paper, and calculator, or (b) MS Excel. You are encouraged to use Excel if you are familiar with the software, but how to use Excel is not taught in this course.

Be sure to find the example problems in Chapter 4 that list 4.23 and 4.35 in the Related Problems line of the example solutions, and practice these example problems prior to attempting 4.23 and 4.35. I have attached some helpful info about chapter 4

Your submission will be graded based on the accuracy of your answers and the degree to which you clearly show each step of your analytical approach and calculations. Papers that are submitted with accurate answers, but do not include the details of how those answers were determined, will not be eligible for full credit. Papers that are submitted with accurate analytical methods and calculation approaches, but inaccurate final answers, will be eligible for some credit.
