Next we will enter the measures for the performance goal:
1. Select the "Performance" goal's box by clicking it. This
will ensure that the new measures will be added below it.
2. Click the Add a Measure button
3. LDW will add a new measure under the "Performance"
goal and display its dialog box.
4. Change the name of the new measure to “Power.”
5. Click the “Scale” tab.
6. Change the units to “horsepower.”
The range of horsepower for the three alternatives is from 109 hp
to 175 hp. Describe this range to LDW as follows:
1. Enter 175 into the “Most Preferred Level” edit box.
2. Enter 109 into the “Least Preferred Level” edit box.
Notice that -- unlike the "Price" measure -- more horsepower is
preferred to less. LDW will know this since the most preferred
level for "Power" is more than the least preferred level.
Finally, we will define the "Fuel Economy" measure:
1. If the "Power" measure is still highlighted, click the
Add a Measure button again
2. LDW will insert a new measure next to the "Power"
measure (under the "Performance" goal).
3. Change the name of the new measure to “Fuel Economy.”
4. Click on the Scale tab.
5. Change the units to “miles per gallon.”
6. Enter 23 into the “Most Preferred Level” edit box.
7. Enter 16 into the “Least Preferred Level” edit box.
When you are finished, click "OK" and LDW will update the goals
hierarchy to its final form. It should look like the hierarchy in
Figure 4-2.
