A manager of a store that sells and installs spas wants to prepare a forecast for January, February, and March of next year. Her forecasts are a combination of trend and seasonality. She uses the following equation to estimate the trend component of monthly demand: Ft = 100 + 2t, where t = 0 in June of last year. Seasonal relatives are 1.13 for January, 1.07 for February, and .92 for March. What demands should she predict? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
