The method for evaluating location alternatives which uses their composite (weighted-average) scores is:
A)cost-volume analysis
B)transportation model analysis
C)factor rating analysis
D)linear regression analysis
E)MODI analysis

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Factor rating analysis is the method for evaluating location alternatives which uses their composite (weighted-average) scores by assigning weights to a set of factors relevant to the choice and having them rank a set of possible locations based on how well each satisfies these factors. This method allows for a comprehensive evaluation of location alternatives based on multiple factors, allowing for a more informed decision-making process. The other methods listed (A, B, D, E) do not involve composite scores using weighted factors.
