Question 1

A firm is considering two countries to outsource its call centre. Currently the weighted factor method has given a score of 120 to the first country and 110 to the second country. If the second country wants to improve its score in the labour rating (weight = 1.5), how much must it increases its labour rating by to have a score greater than or equal to country 1?

Question 2

Two firms that are being considered for an outsourced job have equal un-weighted factor method
scores. Suppose that the ratings for each firm are identical except in two categories, currency and cost risk with high numbers representing low risk. The weight factor for currency risk is three times that of cost risk. Firm 1's score for currency is a 2 and Firm 2's score for cost is a 5. If firm 1 and 2 have identical cumulative scores with the weighted method, find Firm 1's cost score and Firm 2's currency score.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
