Answer:

The Forecast demand for the third quarter = 550

Explanation:

When using a three-quarter moving average we need data three previous quarters and in order to calculate a quarter average we need monthly data.

Step 1 : Calculate Average for three quarters prior the current required quarter

1st quarter's Average = (Oct +Nov *Dec) / 3 = (200+225+250)/3 = 225

2nd  quarter's Average = (Jan +Feb + Mar)/3 = (125+135+135)/3 = 132

3rd  quarter's Average = (Apr + May + Jun)/3 = (190+200+190)/3 = 193

Step 2 : Add all the averages

Demand Average= 193 + 132 + 225 = 550

Answer:

YTM = 3.094%

Explanation:

If you can't calculate the YTM using excel or a financial calcualtor, you can do it by hand using the approximation formula:

<h2>YTM = \frac{C + \frac{F-P}{n }}{\frac{F+P}{2}}</h2>

C = interest payment = 1,000 x 6%/2 = 30

F = face value = 1,000

P = 985,63

n = payment periods = 10 years x 2 payment per year

<h2>YTM = \frac{30+ \frac{1000-958.63}{20 }}{\frac{1000+958.63}{2}}</h2>

YTM = 3.094%

Notice, this YTM is an approximation
