The paper addresses ranking of factors with a use of the pairwise comparison method in sense of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The aim of this study is to show that the logarithmic least squares method used to approximate judgement matrix in order to calculate the ranking of factors does not cause the reduction of weight of a new alternative as the eigenvector method does.
