The Carbondale Hospital is considering the purchase of a new ambulance. The decision will rest partly on the anticipated mileage to be driven next year. The miles driven during the past 5 years are as follows:

Year	1	2	3	4	5
Mileage	3,050	4,050	3,450	3,750	3,750

^{a)Using a 2-year moving average, the forecast for year 6 (round your response to the nearest whole number)?. b) If a 2-year moving average is used to make the forecast, the MAD based on this (round your response to one decimal place). (Hint: You will have only 3 years of matched data.)?}

^{c)The forecast for year 6 using a weighted 2-year moving average with weights of 0.40 and 0.60 (the weight of 0.60 is for the most recent period) = miles (round your response to the nearest whole number).? The MAD for the forecast developed using a weighted 2-year moving average with weights of 0.40 and 0.60 (round your response to one decimal place). (Hint: You will have only 3 years of matched data.)?}

^{d) Using exponential smoothing with alpha ? 0.30 and the forecast for year 1 being 3,050, the forecast for year 6 (round your response to the nearest whole number).?}
