Title: Chapter 2 Supplement 2: Decision Analysis


1
Chapter 2 Supplement 2 Decision Analysis
  • Quantitative decision-making techniques
  • for situations where uncertainty exists

2
Decision Making
  • States of nature
  • Events that may occur in the future
  • Decision maker is uncertain which state of nature
    will occur
  • Decision maker has no control over the states of
    nature

3
Payoff Table
  • A method of organizing illustrating the payoffs
    from different decisions given various states of
    nature
  • A payoff is the outcome of the decision

4
Decision Making Criteria Under Uncertainty
  • Maximax criterion
  • Choose decision with the maximum of the maximum
    payoffs
  • Maximin criterion
  • Choose decision with the maximum of the minimum
    payoffs
  • Minimax regret criterion
  • Choose decision with the minimum of the maximum
    regrets for each alternative

5
Decision Making with Probabilities
  • Risk involves assigning probabilities to states
    of nature
  • Expected value is a weighted average of decision
    outcomes in which each future state of nature is
    assigned a probability of occurrence

6
Expected Value
where
xi outcome i p(xi) probability of outcome i
7
Sequential Decision Trees
  • A graphical method for analyzing decision
    situations that require a sequence of decisions
    over time
