Answer:

d. 111

Explanation:

Calculation to determine which of the following is the resulting year 2018 forecast value

Using this formula

2018 Forecast value = Ft= Ft - 1+ (At - 1- Ft - 1)

Let plug in the formula

2018 Forecast value = 110 + 0.1 (120 - 110)

2018 Forecast value=110+0.1(10)

2018 Forecast value=110+1

2018 Forecast value= 111

Therefore the resulting year 2018 forecast value

will be 111
