Product Details
The manager of the bank's proof department has to decide how many part-time hours to schedule for the upcoming week. To do this, he must develop a forecast of the number of checks to be processed based on historical data, and then he must take into account the costs of under/overscheduling hours. The case is used to introduce exponential smoothing.
