Construct 2s control limits. (Round the final answer to 2 decimal places.) 2s control limits are b. Using the model, forecast textbook sales for each of the next five years. (Round the final answers to 1 decimal place.) Forecast Error Year Sales (000) 9 74.70 10 76.50 11 83.00 12 86.00 13 90.70 c. Suppose actual sales for the next five years turn out as follows: Year: 9 10 11 Sales (000): 74.70 76.50 83.00 12 13 86.00 90.70 Calculate the forecast errors for years 9 to 13. Is the forecasting process in control? (Click to select)
