zalisa [80]

Answer:

The right answer is option (D).

According to the scenario, the most appropriate answer is option (D) because systematic study can be defined as the study of social relationships and behavior and making a decision on the basis of data collected.

While the other options are not that appropriate because of the following reasons:

  • Intuitive study shows the concept of making decision immediately without going deep on data collected.
  • Theoretical study shows the concept of study anything very theoretic and than makes the decision.

Flauer [41]

Answer: D) Project A is better than project B for this company at this point in time.

Explanation:

Option D is the best option because we do not know that the basis for the scoring model directly translates to earnings. The scoring of Project A at 30 does not necessarily mean that it's expected to earn those amounts of revenue and therefore triple that of Project C. We do not know because the information is not complete.

What we do know is that A has the highest score out of all projects and this is why it is better to do Project A as opposed to Project B.
