Introduction: Assume that you are the project coordinator for WolfCo Power and that you have been directed to appropriate funding for four projects. The projects have already been designed and bids from contractors have been accepted. The present total budget amount that you have available is $125,000. It is necessary to construct each of the four projects but it is not essential to accept all of the alternates associated with each of the project bids. The alternates are arranged such that each more expensive alternate includes all the alternates above it. Your task, as project coordinator, is to recommend the project alternates that will most effectively utilize the overall project budget, i.e., to use as much of the funding as you can without exceeding the budget while using the lowest marginal cost to benefit ratio at each step of the process. The matrix of projects, project costs, and project benefits is below. All values are in thousands of US Dollars: B AC/AB Project 1 1.1 Nothing 1.2 Cheap 1.3 Moderate 1.4 Expensive Project Options Matrix | AC/AB 30 Project 2 0 0 2.1 Nothing 35 ? 2.2 Cheap 5 9 ? 2.3 Moderate 1320 ? 2.4 Expensive 45 0 0 2 20 17 45 18 55 ? ? ?
