  3. Synthesis/Results When the judgments were made, the AHP framework was used to perform a synthesis that produced the following results. First a meaningful turnaround in the economy would likely require an additional ten to eleven months, occurring during the fourth quarter of 1992. This forecast is derived from weights generated in the first column of the limiting matrix in Table 6, coupled with the mid-points of the alternate time periods (so as to provide unbiased estimates: 10.45 months from late December 1991/early January 1992 .224 x 1.5 + .151 x 4.5 + .201 x 9 + .424 x 18 =

  9. Conclusion The predicted time of turnaround was 10.45 months from late December 1991/early January 1992, which would have been about November 1992. The consensus of financial experts is that the turnaround of the economy happened about that time.
