(15 points) Exercise 1 With the rise of the women’s movement in the late 1960s, the political significance of dress became increasingly explicit.

Before the spreadsheet, business planning usually meant producing a single forecast. At best, you did a little sensitivity analysis around the projection. The spreadsheet ushered in a much more analytic approach to planning because every major line item could be pulled apart, its components and subcomponen
