Answer:

2,632

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to obtain the deseasonalized data (D) for sales in the third quarter, simply divide the actual sales data (2,500 units) by the seasonal index (0.95):

[tex]D=\frac{2,500}{0.95}\\D=2,631.58[/tex]

Since the data regards units, round up to the next whole unit.

The deseasonalized sales for the quarter are 2,632 units.
