Problem 1 A firm uses simple exponential smoothing with alpha of 0.1 to forecast demand. The forecast for the week of February 1 was 500 units, whereas actual demand turned out to be 450 units. (a) Forecast the demand for the week of February 8. (b) Assume that the actual demand during the week of February 8 turned out to be 505 units. Forecast the demand for the week of February 15. Continue on forecasting through March 15, assuming that subsequent demands were actually 516, 488, 467, 554, and 510 units.

Orders are placed at a cost of $40 each, including preparation time and communication charges, and the lead time is 2 days. a. Find the optimal order quantity. b. What is the reorder point? c. How often should an order be placed? d. What is the cycle time? Problem 3 Using the factor ratings shown below, determine which location alternative should be chosen on the basis of maximum composite score.
