You are to create a weighted average selection table in Excel in order to select the best proposal based upon this weighted average approach. Please highlight the column with the best proposal in yellow. Please paste a screenshot of the Excel table of the weighted average approach in a Word document and write a paragraph $($four to seven sentences$)$ in the same Word document as to why this vendor would be the best choice. The information about the vender choices are as follows:

You have received three possible solutions from three different vendors. This project has two constraints$$cost and schedule. Management has determined that a cost of $$15,000$ or less would be good but up to $$20,000$ is acceptable. Management also has determined that a completion time of $180$ days or less would be good but up to $240$ days would be acceptable. The business user team has determined that there are five business requirements that they would like to see with the final product.

The firm utilizes a numbering system between $1$ and $5$ to determine if the vendor$$s proposal satisfies the constraints and requirements. For constraints, the firm usually rates proposals that meet the good criteria with the number $5,$ proposals that meet acceptable with the number $3,$ and those that do not meet the criteria limits would be rated with the number of $1.$ Regarding requirements, if the proposal fully satisfies the requirement, then it would be rated with the number $5.$ If the proposal satisfies at least $60\%$ of the requirement, then it would be rated with the number $3.$ All other proposals that do not satisfy at least $60\%$ of the requirement would be rated with the number $1.$

Furthermore, the importance of the constraints and requirements based on a $100\%$ scale are as follows.

Cost Constraint is $20\%.$Schedule is $10\%.$Requirement $1$ is $20\%.$Requirements $2$ and $3$ are $15\%$ each.Requirements $4$ and $5$ are $10\%$ each.

Your job as a systems analyst is to review the proposals below and determine which vendor$$s proposals will be awarded the contract for the project based on a weighted average approach.
