Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To calculate the two period simple moving average forecast, we need to take the average of the sales from the two most recent periods.

For April, the two most recent periods are February and March.

So, the two period simple moving average forecast for April would be:

(1,600 + 1,550) / 2 = 1,575

Therefore, the best choice is D.
