You now have 10,000, all of which is invested in a sports team. Each year there is a 60% chance that the value of the team will increase by 60% and a 40% chance that the value of the team will decrease by 60%. Estimate the mean and median value of your investment after 50 years. Explain the large difference between the estimated mean and median.
A decision maker is looking to minimising costs through three alternative decisions a1 , b2 and c3 under two states of nature/events S1 and S2 with S2 having a probability of 30% . For a1 payoffs for s1 K100 million and s2 K540 million For a2 payoff for s1 K150 million and s2 –K50 million For a3 payoff for s1 K350 million and s2 K320 million Find EMV and recommend the course of action Find the EMV under certainty Use the EVC to find the EVPI Determine the opportunity loss table Find the course of action that minimises EOL Compare the minimum EOL with the EVPI.
A firm that plans to expand its product line must decide whether to build a small or a large facilityto produce the new products. If it builds a small facility and demand is low, the net present valueafter deducting for building costs will be $400,000. If demand is high, the firm can either maintainthe small facility or expand it. Expansion would have a net present value of $450,000, and maintaining the small facility would have a net present value of $50,000.If a large facility is built and demand is high, the estimated net present value is $800,000. If demandturns out to be low, the net present value will be – $10,000.The probability that demand will be high is estimated to be .60, and the probability of low demandis estimated to be .40.a. Analyze using a tree diagram.

A small strip-mining coal company is trying to decide whether it should purchase or lease a new clamshell. If purchased, the “shell” will cost $152,500 and is expected to have a $50,000 salvage value after 6 years. Alternatively, the company can lease a clamshell for only $16,000 per year, but the lease payment will have to be made at the beginning of each year. If the clamshell is purchased, it will be leased to other strip-mining companies whenever possible, an activity that is expected to yield revenues of $9,000 per year. If the company’s MARR is 13% per year, should the clamshell be purchased or leased on the basis of a future worth analysis? Assume the annual M&O cost is the same for both options. The future worth when purchased is $ The future worth when leased is $
The weather evolves in a probabilistic manner based on many factors from one day to the next. Consider the following scenario for the weather in a certain location: The probability of rain tomorrow is 0.6 if it is raining today. The probability of its being clear (no rain) tomorrow is 0.8 if it is clear today. Assume today is Day 0 is Monday, and it’s clear. Also, assume the weather conditions (probabilities of rain and no rain) stay the same for the whole planning period. Build simulation models to answer the following questions: (a) When it is expected to have a clear weekend (Saturday and Sunday)? (b) When it is expected to have two consecutive clear weekends? (c) What is the expected number of rainy days in the first 30 days? State all your assumptions and show the steps of your analysis
A manager wants to expand summer resort facilities now or wait at least another year. If he expands now and the upcoming summer season is good, the profit will be K246 000; and if not good, the loss will be K60 000. If he delays the expansion for at least a year and the upcoming summer season is good, the profit will be K120 000; if the season is poor, the profit will be K12 000. Required: Assuming the probability of a good summer in both cases is 1/3, use Bayesian analysis to aid the manager.
Even though independent gasoline stations have been having a difficult time. Murad has been thinking about starting her own independent gasoline station. Murad's problem is to decide how large his station would be. The annual returns will depend on both the size of his station and a number of marketing factors related to the oil industry and demand for gasoline. After a careful analysis, Murad developed the following table: Size of the first station Small Medium Large Very large Probability Good market,$ 50 000 80 000 100 000 300 000 20% Fair market,$ 20 000 30 000 30 000 25 000 30% a) what is the maximax decision? b) what is the maximin decision c) what is the equally likely decision (Laplace) d) What is the Expected Monetary Value Criterion (EMV Criterion) Poor market, $ -10 000 -20 000 -40 000 -160 000 50%
A local real estate investor in Kingston is considering three alternative investments: a motel, a restaurant, or a theater. Profits from the motel or restaurant will be affected by the availability of gasoline and the number of tourists; profits from the theater will be relatively stable under any conditions. The following payoff table shows the profit or loss that could result from each investment: Real Estate Investor Payoff Table Payoffs are Profits States of Nature (Gasoline Availability) Decision Alternatives Shortage Stable Supply Surplus Motel $–8,000 $15,000 $22,000 Restaurant $2,000 $8,000 $6,000 Theater $6,000 $6,000 $5,000 Which option should the real estate investor choose if he uses the LaPlace criterion?

Donald Harris received a windfall and needs to invest it for tax reasons. He went to his brother-in-law, Joe Harris, who is a financial advisor. Joe prepared a matrix that illustrated the possible returns on investment for different investment strategies under different economic conditions. That matrix is given below. Donald Harris reads the Wall Drive Journal and came across an article that stated that the probability that there would be a major downturn would be 10%; the probability of a downturn would be 30%; the probability of an upturn would be 40%; and that the probability of a major upturn would be 20%. Based on these numbers, what investment strategy should Donald Harris adopt? Future Air Traffic Strategies Major Downturn Downturn Upturn Major Upturn Contrarian 20% 10% 5% -15% Risk Averse 2% 4% 7% 10% Growth -10% -8% 13% 20% Aggressive -25% -20% 11% 35% Group of answer choices
Dickie Hustler has $2 and is going to toss an unfair coin(probability .4 of heads) three times. Before each toss, hecan bet any amount of money (up to what he now has). Ifheads comes up, Dickie wins the number of dollars he bets;if tails comes up, he loses the number of dollars he bets.Use dynamic programming to determine a strategy thatmaximizes Dickie’s probability of having at least $5 afterthe third coin toss.
