Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta
There are three components to any decision:
Respuesta
  • 1. the choices available, or alternatives 2. the states of nature, which are not under the control of the decision maker 3. the payoffs
  • 1. The goals of the decider 2. The steps to reach the goal 3. The risks invovled
  • 1. The total list of options 2. The option with the best return 3. Selecting the best option

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
Event
Respuesta
  • Uncertainty regarding future demand. State of nature (future demand) unknown. Decision maker has no control over state of nature.
  • Two or more courses of action open to decision maker. Decision maker must evaluate alternatives. Decision maker selects a course of action based on certain criteria. Depending on the set of circumstances, these criteria may be quantitative, psychological, sociological, and so on.
  • Profit. Break even. Loss.

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
Act
Respuesta
  • Uncertainty regarding future demand. State of nature (future demand) unknown. Decision maker has no control over state of nature.
  • Two or more courses of action open to decision maker. Decision maker must evaluate alternatives. Decision maker selects a course of action based on certain criteria. Depending on the set of circumstances, these criteria may be quantitative, psychological, sociological, and so on.
  • Profit. Break even. Loss.

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
Outcome Payoff Consequence
Respuesta
  • Profit. Break even. Loss.
  • Two or more courses of action open to decision maker. Decision maker must evaluate alternatives. Decision maker selects a course of action based on certain criteria. Depending on the set of circumstances, these criteria may be quantitative, psychological, sociological, and so on.
  • Uncertainty regarding future demand. State of nature (future demand) unknown. Decision maker has no control over state of nature.

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
EMV(Ai)
Respuesta
  • refers to the expected monetary value of decision alternative, i. There may be many decisions possible. We will let 1 stand for the first decision, 2 for the second, and so on. The lower- case letter i represents the entire set of decisions.
  • refers to the probability of the states of nature. There can be an unlimited number, so we will let j represent this possible outcome.
  • refers to the value of the payoffs. Note that each payoff is the result of a combination of a decision alternative and a state of nature.

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
P(Sj)
Respuesta
  • refers to the probability of the states of nature. There can be an unlimited number, so we will let j represent this possible outcome.
  • refers to the value of the payoffs. Note that each payoff is the result of a combination of a decision alternative and a state of nature.
  • refers to the expected monetary value of decision alternative, i. There may be many decisions possible. We will let 1 stand for the first decision, 2 for the second, and so on. The lower- case letter i represents the entire set of decisions.
