What is it?
It concerns with making a decision or an action based on a series of possible outcomes
The possible outcomes are normally presented in a table format called
“ Payoff Table” (to p3)
(to p1)

Payoff TableA payoff table consists of
Columns: state of nature (ie events)Rows: choice of decision
It corresponding entries are “payoff values”

Regret is the difference between the payoff from the best decision and all other decision payoffs.
The decision maker attempts to avoid regret by selecting the decision alternative that minimizes the maximum regret.

Decision Making without Probabilities
The Hurwicz Criterion
- The Hurwicz criterion is a compromise between the maximax and maximin criterion.
- A coefficient of optimism, , is a measure of the decision maker’s optimism.
- The Hurwicz criterion multiplies the best payoff by and the worst payoff by 1- ., for each decision, and the best result is selected.

Office building $100,000(.4) - 40,000(.6) = 16,000

The Equal Likelihood Criterion
- The equal likelihood ( or Laplace) criterion multiplies the decision payoff for each state of nature by an equal weight, thus assuming that the states of nature are equally likely to occur.
Decision Values
Apartment building $50,000(.5) + 30,000(.5) = 40,000
Office building $100,000(.5) - 40,000(.5) = 30,000

Decision Making without Probabilities
Summary of Criteria Results
A dominant decision is one that has a better payoff than another decision under each state of nature.
The appropriate criterion is dependent on the “risk” personality and philosophy of the decision maker.

EV(Office) = $100,000(.6) - 40,000(.4) = 44,000

Expected Value of Perfect Information
The expected value of perfect information (EVPI) is the maximum amount a decision maker would pay for additional information.
EVPI = (expected value withwith perfect information) –(expected value withoutwithout perfect information)
EVPI = the expected opportunity loss (EOL) for the best decision.

Bayesian Analysis(1 of 3)
Bayesian analysis deals with posterior information, and it can be computed based on their conditional probabilities
Example: Consider the following example. Using expected value criterion, best decision was to purchase office building with expected value of $444,000, and EVPI of $28,000.
Now, whatposterior informationcan be obtained here?

Bayesian Analysis(2 of 3)
Let consider the following information:
g = good economic conditions
p = poor economic conditions
P = positive economic report
N = negative economic report
From Economic analyst,we can obtain the following “conditional probability”, the probability that an event will occur given that another event has already occurred.
P(Pg) = .80
P(Ng) = .20
P(Pp) = .10
P(Np) = .90
From about information, we can further compute the posterior information such as:
P(gP)

Bayesian Analysis(3 of 3)
(A posterior probability is the altered marginal probability of an event based on additional
information)
Example for its application:
Let P(g) = .60; P(p) = .40
Then, the posterior probabilities is:
P(gP) = P(Pg)P(g)/[P(Pg)P(g) + P(Pp)P(p)] = (.80)(.60)/[(.80)(.60) + (.10)(.40)] = .923

The Expected Value of Sample Information
The expected value of sample information (EVSI)
= expected value with information – expect value without information.:
For example problem, EVSI = $63,194 - 44,000 = $19,194

Efficiency
• The efficiency of sample information is the ratio of the expected value of sample information to the expected value of perfect information:
• efficiency = EVSI /EVPI = $19,194/ 28,000 = 0.68
(to p2)

Decision Analysis with Additional Information Utility
Expected Cost (insurance) = .992($500) + .008(500) = $500
Expected Cost (no insurance) = .992($0) + .008(10,000) = $80
- Decision should be do not purchase insurance, but people almost always do purchase insurance.
- Utility is a measure of personal satisfaction derived from money.
- Utiles are units of subjective measures of utility.
- Risk averters forgo a high expected value to avoid a low-probability disaster.
- Risk takers take a chance for a bonanza on a very low-probability event in lieu of a sure thing.
