Official Solution:
• Considering both the CEO’s guidelines and total project cost, Vendor A is the lowest-cost vendor that meets all of the CEO’s guidelines.
Vendor A and Vendor C are the only vendors that meet all CEO guidelines. Vendor A's total cost is $545,000, while Vendor C's is $550,000.
Therefore, Vendor A is the lowest-cost vendor that meets all of the CEO’s guidelines. Answer: True.
• Vendor A has the lowest shipping-to-equipment price ratio.
We need the lowest shipping-to-equipment price ratio. A has the lowest shipping cost (numerator) and the second highest equipment price (denominator) after C. So, C is the only contender. A's shipping-to-equipment price ratio is 10,000 / 510,000 ≈ 0.0196. C's shipping-to-equipment price ratio is 15,000 / 515,000 ≈ 0.0291. A's ratio is lower. Answer: True.
• Two vendors do not satisfy the CEO’s electrical supplier requirement.
Only Vendor D uses an unapproved supplier (Rio Motors). Vendors A, B, and C use ABB or Schneider, as required. Answer: False.
