III. Case Problem How will Genee Lopez evaluate the proposals of Mr. Artiaga and Mrs. Ng given that they would like to open a store at same location?
IV. Case Objective The objectives in analyzing and solving the case are to identify which of Mr. Artiaga and Mrs. Ng’s proposal will be given approval and to determine the factors that will affect the place decisions.
