A location alternatives has been narrowed down to two locations, Dayton and Boston. The main factors in the decision will be the supply of raw materials, which has a weight of .50, transportation cost, which has a weight of .40, and labor cost, which has a weight of .10. The scores for raw materials, transportation, and labor are for Dayton 70, 80, and 70, respectively; for Boston 70, 50, and 100, respectively. Given this information and a minimum acceptable composite score of 75, we can say that the manager should:be indifferent between these locations
a. choose Akron
b. choose Boston
c. reject both locations
d. build a plant in both cities

Respuesta :

Answer:

c. reject both locations.

Explanation:

The manager should reject the both locations because he is given the minimum acceptable composite score as 75. But both the location Dayton and Boston will have composite score of 73 which is below the minimum acceptable composite score.

Dayton = (70 + 80 + 70) / 3 = 73.33

Boston = (70 + 50 + 100) / 3 = 73.33

The manager is indifferent to both the options and should reject them.
