A manufacturer produces an item consisting of two components, which must both work for the item to func-tion properly. The cost of returning one of the items to the manufacturer for repairs is α dollars, the cost of inspect-ing one of the components is β dollars, and the cost of repairing a faulty component is φ dollars. She can shipeach item without inspection with the guarantee that itwill be put into perfect working condition at her factoryin case it does not work; she can inspect both componentsand repair them if necessary; or she can randomly select one of the components and ship the item with the origi-nal guarantee if it works, or repair it and also check the other component.(a) Construct a table showing the manufacturer’sexpected losses corresponding to her three “strategies”and the three “states” of Nature that 0, 1, or 2 of thecomponents do not work.(b) What should the manufacturer do if α = $25.00,φ = $10.00, and she wants to minimize her maximumexpected losses?(c) What…
