INTRODUCTION
EFFICIENCY OF N.AMERICA
EFFICIENCY OF EUROPE
EFFICIENCY OF AFRICA
EFFICIENCY OF S.AMERICA
On solving the above linear programming models in Excel for all the units, the
following efficiencies for the DMUs were found.
Now, CEO likes to compare the efficiency of the unit in Europe (inefficient
unit) with other efficient units. It is found that the shadow prices of the efficient
units that are N. America and S. America to be 0.157 and 0.657 respectively.
So, N. America and S. America forms the reference set for Europe. The linear
combination of a particular input for two efficient units using shadow prices as
multiplier, will give the point on the efficient frontier where the inefficient unit
can be projected. That is Europe should brought down the product development
expenses from 10 to 6.698 (5 x 0.157 + 9 x 0.657).
Thus on comparing the inputs and outputs of Europe with that of N and S
America, Europe to reduce Product development and Marketing costs by 3.302
and 5.947 (‘000s of dollar value) and increase sales of Tablets and Laptops by
1.256 and 2.71 units respectively to reach the values of the efficient units. The
sale of Smart phones is however to the level of the efficient units N and S
America. Thus the changes to be made to the other inefficient DMUs can be
analysed.
In this case of NIRF ranking , there are multiple inputs and outputs set as
parameters and a detailed DEA analysis is performed using the excel solver.
Here, the efficiencies of colleges included in the analysis is individually found
out. Weights were assigned to each of the input and output. These weights are
the coefficients for each input and output variable. The coefficients pertaining to
output variables measure the relative decrease in efficiency with each unit
reduction of output variable. The coefficients pertaining to input variables
measure the relative increase in efficiency with each unit reduction of input
variable. These weights can be either provided by the user or can be determined
optimally by using some optimization technique like DEA. The Sensitivity
report for _ has also been devised which is analysed further in the report. The
overall report led us to a unanimous conclusion on the excess use of resources
which further reduced the efficiency of _.
The detailed analysis and the excel solver is given below.

Analysis of the solution:
From the above analysis, we were able to conclude that _ suffered on the excess
of resources which played a major part in bringing down the efficiency.
Moreover, DEA analysis is not found to be the best method to analyse this kind
of a ranking system. DEA analysis is found to be useful when it comes to the
monetary analysis of various institutions. A detailed ranking framework and an
analysis based on the above parameters is thus found to be inconsistent with
DEA , making a comprehensive evaluation difficult.
