Abstract
This study will provide a flexible vehicle for portfolio analysis involving incompatible and/or incommensurable goals and indivisible MIS projects in a firm. The model provides an easily understandable measure of over- and under-achievement of each goal. In examining the model, the management of the firm is able to gain an understanding of the various trade-offs necessary to increase the achievement of certain goals at the expense of other goals.
