Using the data below, with a smoothing constant of 0.1 for the base and 0.6 for the trend, compute a trend-adjusted exponential smoothing forecast for period 2. (You are now at the end of period 1.)  Period     At         Ft        Tt   1          640      510       80   2

For the next 2 questions, suppose the following had been computed for a set of past forecasts. If the “one-number forecast for next period was 1000, what are the lowest and highest demands that we can possibly expect for next period, using a 99.7% confidence level? MSE = 126               MAPE = 21              Tracking Signal = +5                  MAD = 8

The production function involves transforming resources into higher-value products or services.

Which is superior a case report or a CAT (critically appraised topic)?           B.2.1, B.6.1, B.6.2

Using the same data as in the previous problem (repeated below), assume you had computed F2 to be 541, and that you had computed T2 to be 90.  The trend-adjusted exponential smoothing forecast for period 3 would be Period     At         Ft        Tt   1          640      510       80   2

The basic functions of management that our class focuses on are organizing and leading.

Describe what a DSM code is.                                                                                          B.4.29

A CAT examines information on a clinical topic.  The author thoroughly examines several relevant studies to come to a conclusion of the evidence supporting the topic.

How can the COTA demonstrate to the OTR that he/she is competent to perform a standardized assessment or a procedure?                                                                            B.5.8

When an author has been published you can totally rely on their writings and opinions.
