A) Analytical Hierachy Process

B) Weighted Scoring

C) Goal Programming

D) Trend Analysis

2) All of the following are true cocnerning multicriteria decision making except:

A) multicriteria problems can have more than one goal or objective when making a decision

B) goal progamming can be used to solve certain types of multicriteria problems

C) all criteria will always be met (i.e. all objectives will be satisfied) when solving a multicriteria problem

D) All of the answers are true cocnerning multicriteria decision making

3) With the Analytical Hierachy Process, perfect consistency result in a Consistency Index of 1.0:

True

False

4) The Hurwics approach yields the same decision alternative reuslts as

A) The Maximin approach if the coefficient of optimism is equal to 1

B) The Maximax approach if the coefficent of optimisim is equal to 1

C) The Minimax Regret approach if the coefficient of optomism is equal to 1

D) The Equal Likleihood approach if the coeffiecent of optimism is equal to 1

Answer 1

1) All of the following are methods or procedures for solving problems with multiple criteria except

B) Weighted Scoring becuase it is based on a relatively simple weighted scoring technique

2) All of the following are true cocnerning multicriteria decision making except

C) all criteria will always be met (i.e. all objectives will be satisfied) when solving a multicriteria problem

3) With the Analytical Hierachy Process, perfect consistency result in a Consistency Index of 1.0

False becuase perfect consistency result in a Consistency Index of 0

4) The Hurwics approach yields the same decision alternative reuslts as

B) The Maximax approach if the coefficent of optimisim is equal to 1
