Let value of P-high be P at which A & C are equal:
Equation of A: 50*(1-p) + 60*p = 50 + 10*p
Equation of C: 40*(1-p) + 70*p = 40 + 30*p
Equating the two:
50 + 10*p = 40 + 30*p
p = 0.5
So, Do nothing is best from 0 to 0.5
Equation of B: 20*(1-p) + 80*p = 20 + 60*p
Equating B & C
40 + 30*p = 20 + 60*p
20 = 30*p
p = 0.67
So, Subcontracting is best from 0.5 to 0.67
Expand is best from 0.67 to 1
