Attention writing king: prioritize project risks and summarize a

Assignment Part 1 – Prioritize Project Risks

Instructions
This assignment has two parts.  In the first part, prepare and submit an Excel spreadsheet in which you quantitatively rate the project risks you identified in the Week 2 assignment, calculate a Risk Factor for each risk, and then sort the risks from highest to lowest Risk Factor.  Be sure  to use a scale of 1-10 for the Likelihood (with 1 being not very likely and 10 being practically certain) and a scale of 1-10 for the Impact (or Consequence) (with 1 being negligible and 10 being catastrophic).  Use the RF = P X C method for calculating the Risk Factor for each risk and  use a formula in Excel so that if the Likelihood or Impact rating changed, the Risk Factor would automatically change.  You must sort all of the risks in your Excel spreadsheet from highest Risk Factor to lowest Risk Factor.
