Question

The XY Manufacturing Company must decide whether to manufacture acomponent part at its plant or purchase the component part from a supplier. The resulting profit is dependent upon the demand for the product. The following payoff table shows the projected profit (in ten thousand of pesos):

	State of Nature	State of Nature	State of Nature
Decision Alternative	Low Demand S_(1)	Medium Demand S_(2)	High Demand S_(3)
Manufacture, d_(1)	-100	200	500
Purchase, d_(2)	50	225	350

The state-of-nature probabilities are P(s1) = 0.35, P(s2) = 0.35, and P(s3
) = 0.30.

c. A test market study of the potential demand for the product is expected to report
either a favorable (F) or unfavorable (U) condition. The relevant conditional probabilities are as follows:
What is the probability that the market research report will be favorable?
