Answer:

A.

Under the MaxiMax criteria, the best of the maximum payoffs of all the alternatives will be selected.

Maximum payoff under large stock = $22000

Maximum payoff under medium stock = $14000

Maximum payoff under small stock = $9000

The , best of above payoff is $22000, so large stock alternative will be selected.

B.

Under the MaxiMin criteria, the best of the minimum payoffs of all the alternatives will be selected.

Minimum payoff under large stock = -$2000

Minimum payoff under medium stock =$6000

Minimum payoff under small stock =$4000

The , best of the above payoffs is $6000, so medium stock alternative will be selected.

C.

Under equally likely criteria,

Expected payoff under the large stock = (22000 + 12000 -2000)/3 = $10666.67

Expected payoff under the medium stock = (14000 + 10000+6000)/3 = $10000

Expected payoff under the small stock = (9000+8000+4000)/3 = $7000

The maximum payoff is with the large stock alternative, then large stock alternative is selected.

D.

With the given probabilities,

Expected payoff under the large stock = (.3*22000 + .5*12000 -.2*2000) = $12200

Expected payoff under the medium stock = (.3*14000 + .5*10000+ .2*6000) = $10400

Expected payoff under the small stock = (.3*9000 + .5*8000 + .2*4000) = $7500

The maximum payoff is with the large stock alternative, then large stock alternative is selected.

E.

EVPI = EVWPI - EVWOPI

EVPI = (.3*22000 + .5*12000 + .2*6000) - 12200

EVPI = $1600
