*P=poor,F=fair, G=good, VG=very good, E=excellent

  1. Using an equal point spread for all five ratings (i.e., P = 1 , F = 2 , G = 3 , VG = 4 , E = 5 P=1,F=2,G=3,VG=4,E=5), determine a weighted score for each product idea. What is the ranking of the three products?
  2. Rank the criteria, compute the rank-sum weights, and determine the score for each alternative. Do the same using the rank reciprocal weights.
  • What are some of the advantages and disadvantages of this method of product selection?.
