Answer:

a) If manager weighs factors equally, the composite factor rating scores will be A = 5.6, B = 6.3, and C = 6.3 approximately.  B and C are equal and better than A in terms of highest average score.

b) When double weights are assigned to business services and construction costs, the composite factor rating scores will be A = 5.9, B = 6.1, and C = 6.0 approximately.  B is the best in terms of highest average score.

Explanation:

Composite Factor Rating scores are obtained by obtaining the mean or average of the scores under each location in order to give data points that can be used for making decisions.

The assignment of weights will differentiate the factors and change the decision outcome.

An excel copy is attached showing the derivations for a and b.
