The following profit payoff table shows profit for a decision analysis problem with two decision alternatives and three states of nature. Suppose that the decision maker obtained the probability assessments P(S1) = 0.65, P(S2) = 0.20, and P(S3) = 0.15. State of Nature Decision Alternative S1 S2 S3 d1 150 175 50 d2 175 75 100 Use the expected value approach to determine the optimal decision. The optimal decision is?

I posted five questions. The last one is a yes or no. Thanks. Fantastic Distributing is in the process of trying to determine where they should schedule next year's production of a popular line of kitchen utensils that they distribute. Manufacturers in four different countries have submitted bids to Fantastic Distributing. However, a pending trade bill in Congress will greatly affect the cost to Fantastic Distributing due to proposed tariffs, favorable trading status, etc. After careful analysis, Fantastic Distributing has...
The following payoff table shows the profit for a decision problem with two states of nature and two decision alternatives: State of Nature Decision Alternative s1 10 4 S2 d1 d2 (a) Suppose P(S1)-0.2 ad P(s2)-0.8. What is the best decision using the expected value approach? Round your answer in one decimal place The best decision is decision alternative d2 , with an expected value of 3.2 (b) Perform sensitivity analysis on the payoffs for decision alternative d1. Assume the...
