A company uses a prioritization range of 1–10, in which 10 represents the highest or best. According to the information from the table, which option should the business analyst recommend?
To determine the recommended option, we need to calculate the total score for each option by multiplying the weight by the score for each category and then summing the results.
Keep in mind that the weight for cost should be negative
For option 1: (7 x 10) + (-3 x 1) = 67
For option 2: (7 x 5) + (-3 x 10) = 5
For option 3: (7 x 10) + (-3 x 3) = 61
For option 4: (7 x 7) + (-3 x 5) = 34
Based on these calculations, the business analyst should recommend option 1, which has the highest total score of 67. Therefore, the answer is D. 1
