are made to form the main branches‚ or nodes‚ of the decision tree. Then the conditional probabilities for each node are calculated. We can take Outcome Node #1 as an example. Firstly‚ we input the probabilities of 0.4‚ 0.4 and 0.2 for “good”‚ “moderate” and “poor” market reception. We then proceed to develop the marginal‚ conditional‚ and joint probabilities for each terminal end-point. The formula for the conditional probability of events A and B is changed as: P(A ∩ B) = P(B) P(A | B) By developing

Decision of Uncertainty Paper All decision-making has some level of uncertainly. “Competent researchers and astute managers alike practice thinking habits that reflect sound reasoning—finding correct premises‚ testing the connections between their facts and assumptions‚ making claims based on adequate evidence” (Cooper & Schindler‚ 2006). Data from appropriate investigations can lead to high quality decisions with a lesser amount of uncertainty. Risks in everyday life can be reduced. Our

Case Study: Blake Electronics CASE: 1.) MAI’s proposal directly gives Steve the conditional probabilities he needs (e.g.‚ probability of a successful venture given a favorable survey). Although the information from Iverstine and Kinard (I&K) is different‚ we can easily use Bayes’ theorem to on I&K information to compute the revised probabilities. As such‚ does not need any additional information from I&K. 2.) Steve’s problem involves three decisions. First‚ should he contract the services

Contract is an agreement between two or more competent parties in which an offer is made and accepted‚ and each party benefits. No contract can come into being unless the following features exist: an actual offer‚ an acceptance‚ consideration (this means that each party will contribute something of a material value to the bargain) and an intention to create legal relations.
