In this paper‚ we will be looking at three different scenarios in order to understand and implement different decision models. Question one The Gorman manufacturing company is trying to decide whether to manufacture a component part or to purchase it. In order to make this decision we need to calculate the Expected Monetary Value for each probability. The highest EMV will be the best decision (Satyaprasad‚ Nirmala‚ & Saha‚ 2012). So‚ EMV for manufacture is= -20(.35) + 40(.35) + 100(.30) = -7+
