A company is deciding between 2 foreign firms to provide its call center services. A factor-rating method is used. Factors are rated on a scale of 1-10, with 1 being the best score.

1. If the factors are weighted equally (respective weights of .333), what is the factor-rating score for each firm and which firm is preferred
2. Suppose a consultant recommended that Factor 3 be twice as important as Factor 1, while Factor 2 should be twice as important as Factor 3. Using the weighted method, what is the factor-rating scorer for each firm and which firm is preferred? (Round your weights to the third decimal place.) Show all work by hand (not excel), thank you!

3. Firm	Factor 1	Factor 2	Factor 3
   A	8	7	5
   B	4	8	7
