This final assignment, 

broken in to two parts, should incorporate the

work that you have started in your discussions throughout the course
up to this point. You will want to go back and review your discussion
posts as well as the posts of others each week to complete this final
assignment.

PART 1: Evaluate and Make the Decision by comparing the alternatives

based on the objectives. This process is achieved in Step Four by
creating two decision matrices - unweighted and weighted.

STEP 1: Create the Unweighted Matrix

 Use a scale of 0 - 3 to rate the first decision matrix. (0 being does

not meet the objective well to 3 being meets the objective well).
 The decision matrices must have the four objectives and four
alternatives from the previous week's discussions. 
 Explain WHY and HOW Harry derived the ranking of the
objectives and alternatives (each of the individual numbers) in the
first matrix. Review the House Buying Example.

STEP 2: Create the Weighted Matrix

 Assign a percentage to each of the objectives.

 These weights must total to 100% for the second (weighted)
decision matrix. Remember these do not change for each
alternative. but are applied to each objective.  
 Explain WHY and HOW Harry derived each of the weights for the
objectives.

STEP 3: Evaluate

 Based on the results of the Decision Matrices, evaluate and

analyze all of HH’s alternatives and objectives.
 State the final decision by explaining and justifying it with the
numbers in the matrix.  The final decision is based on the matrices
 Make sure that all of your steps make sense with one another and
fully align so that your final decision completely lines up with the
rest of the steps in the process.
PART 2:

Create a report to the internal stakeholders of the company to discuss

the decision that you have made regarding moving forward in a way
that fixes the financial situation that outlines exactly how you have
come to the decision. In your memo, you want to provide specifics,
some of which have been established throughout the first 6 weeks of
the course. All conclusions, justifications, reasoning's, and explanations
must be supported with course material in the form of APA in-text
citations (page/paragraph numbers required) and a reference list.

 Biases that may impact the process

 Triggers/Opportunities leading to the need for a decision

 Goal of Decision - What is the overall goal and why?
 Decision Statement
 Purpose, Scope, and Perspective - How did you frame this
statement?
 Four Objectives - Of the 6, why these?
 Alternatives and how they met your objectives. Were these your
original alternatives or were there class discussions that brought
forth new ideas?
 Your decision matrices (weighted and unweighted) and how you
chose to weight each criteria
 Your final decision - Assessing the Decision Process, which is
where Harry will state the final decision and how it fulfills HH’s
objectives by examining the MDQ process in how that final
decision was derived.
