- Operating "Cash" Excess (To "Marketable Securities") 0

+ Operating "Cash" Deficit (From "Loans") 0

= Final "Cash" Balance (End of Quarter 5) 4,011,402

Notes:

(1) "Marketable Securities" and "Loans" refer to the values on last

quarter's balance sheet.

(2) Investment changes can be positive, negative, or zero. A positive

(negative) {zero}. Investment change corresponds to an increase (a

decrease) {no change} in the dollar value of the investment from last

quarter to this quarter which leads to a decrease (an increase)

(no change) in current-quarter "Cash" balance.

(3) At most, one of Operating "Cash" Excess and Operating "Cash" Deficit will

be non-zero; it is possible for both to be zero. Recall that "Cash" must

be between 5.0% and 10.0% of current-quarter sales revenues. Excess

"Cash" (above 10.0% of revenues) is invested in "Marketable Securities";

shortfalls in "Cash" (below 5.0% of revenues) result in "Loans."

SUMMARY: For 11 forecasts, average forecasting accuracy is 90.4%

Note: Forecasts count within the calculation of forecasting accuracy only

if the "actual" value being forecast is greater than 100 for sales volumes

(to not penalize you for "small" forecasts). Otherwise, the relevant values

of "forecast" and "actual" are only reported for reference purposes, but such

forecasts are not counted for forecasting accuracy scoring. This is the

reason why the number of forecasts referenced in "SUMMARY" may be less than

the detailed line-by-line reporting of forecasts.
