Answer:

13,710

Explanation:

The computation of the forecast for period 5 using a four period weighted moving average is shown below:

= Weights of period 1 × Period 1 + Weights of period 2 × Period 2 + Weight of period 3 × Period 3 + Weights of period 4 × Period 4

= .05 × 10000 + .15 × 12400 + .30 × 13250 + .50 × 14750

= 5,00 + 1,860 + 3,975 + 7,375

= 13,710
