During the 1980s, I was on a management team for a large manufacturer. My job was redesigning work to improve effectiveness. The plant was 24 acres under one roof.

If you want to sell products internationally, you’re going to have to pay taxes and duties upon formal entry to the destination country, right? Well, not necessarily. Many countries have what’s called the de minimis threshold which in Latin means “too small to be meaningful or taken into consideration.” Therefore if your product’s value is under a country’s particular threshold, it may be considered tax and duty-free.

When generating a statistical forecast, you must first ensure that the historical data has been cleaned of outliers. Otherwise, beware of GIGO! (Garbage In, Garbage Out). This historical clean-up is generally carried out on monthly buckets, sometimes on weekly buckets.
