Effectiveness of the waste management service in a regional city depends on five aspects Technology, Political
Question:
Effectiveness of the waste management service in a regional city depends on five aspects – Technology, Political Will, Supervision, Societal and Funding allocated. The technological aspect is influenced by the Waste Processing Facility and Processing Method/Equipment. The political aspect depends on availability of legislations for waste classification and the council’s priorities towards enforcing them. The council ran a survey among city dwellers on how they rate the current state of affairs. Outcome of the survey is as follows.
A similar but less extensive survey was conducted in 2015 is the best estimate towards citizens’ perception on effectiveness of the Waste Treatment Facility performance.
5% of the population was happy with all five aspects
20% of the population was happy with any four of the aspects
4% of the population was totally dissatisfied
Due to difference in approach with current survey, assume the public were undecided on other states – ( i.e. 50% probability for WTP performance being effective and ineffective)
The city has a population of 10,000. Simulate a scenario of 10,000 cases (non-exhaustive, with 3% data missing),
Identify the percentage of citizens happy
1. with five aspects,
2. four aspects and
3. totally dissatisfied.
Make comparison with outcome of previous survey.
