SmartForecasts II by Smart Software is a business forecasting computer program that is easy to use without a knowledge of statistics. It quickly makes accurate projections of sales, expenditures, market share, inventory levels, and other items whose values are recorded periodically over time. As a business forecasting product, SmartForecasts II provides more realistic information than you would receive by adding 5% to the most recent figures in a spreadsheet. Most business forecasting is done by managers and analysts who may not be familiar with the statistical and mathematical reasoning behind forecasting but do know a great deal about products, competition, and markets. SmartForecasts II is designed to fully utilise the special knowledge and business judgment of the user. Its exceptional ease of use makes it appropriate for novices, while the variety of methods available appeal to the experienced analyst. One of the strongest features of SmartForecasts II is Automatic Forecasting, which runs an internal check among the available forecasting techniques to determine which one best forecasts your data series. Using a process that is transparent to the user, Automatic Forecasting displays results in a graph showing historical data, smoothed historical data, forecasts, and upper/lower margins of error based on the winning method. It also produces tabular results.
Forecasting can be done simultaneously on a single business variable or a group of up to 60 related variables (up to 150 data points or observations per variable), such as the sales of items in the same product line.
SmartForecasts II's unique Eyeball Forecasting lets you adjust any forecast, including automatic forecasts, to reflect business judgment or new market information. It lets you use interactive graphics to quickly draw and adjust forecasts on-screen. SmartForecasts II consists of four menu- driven modes; an edit mode for creating, editing, and transferring data; an explore mode for statistical analysis and graphing of data; a forecast mode; and an on-line help mode.

An inventory and valuation policy is an insurance policy, usually on household goods and personal effects, that is based on a written schedule of every item in the premises. This schedule, which is prepared by professional valuers, shows the value of each item. In such policies, insurers agree that in the event of a claim they will not require any further proof of value, which they would require without a valued schedule. Inventory and valuation policies are rare because of the time and expense involved in obtaining a valuation. There are also the problems of having to add to the cover any new items purchased and of inflationary rises in the value of objects. Research Inventory and Valuation Policy
