During the year, three Finnish key account managers of an international chemical company have sold five biocides manufactured by the company, measured in liters, as follows:

Vesa sold products in 10000 l, 4400 l, 5500 l, 7400 l and 3700 l.

Antti sold 1700 l, 1000 l, 7300 l, 3500 l and 8300 l.

Olavi sold 5600 l, 6100 l, 5700 l, 6800 l and 6700 l.


The liter prices of the five products were €25.00, €18.00, €29.00, €22.00 and €33.00. In addition, the five biocide products sold have been given weighting factors of 1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.3 and 1.5 in the internal reporting.

The company wants to classify its sellers based on sales success using three different metrics in the evaluation: 1) sales volume 2) sales value in euros and 3) sales volume weighted by the above weighting factors.

The amount of sales (1) was scored as follows:

less than 10000 l: 0 point

10,000-20,000 l: 2 points

20000-30000 l: 4 points

30000-40000 l: 6 points

over 40,000 l: 8 points

Weighted sales (3) were scored with the same point limits as unweighted sales.

The value of sales in euros (2) was scored as follows:

under €200,000: 0 point

€200,000 - €299,999.99: 2 points

€300,000 - €399,999.99: 4 points

€400,000 - €499,999.99: 7 points

€500,000 - €599,999.99: 10 points

600,000 or more: 12 points
