Jerry loves to take his own bike on 50-mile trips with his friends, but he believes that any small business should be started only if there is a good chance of making a profit.

Because there will be a 5-year lease on the building that Jerry is thinking about using, he wants to make sure that he makes the correct decision. Jerry is also thinking about hiring his old marketing professor to conduct a marketing research study. If the study is conducted, the study could be favorable (i.e., predicting a favorable market) or unfavorable (i.e., predicting an unfavorable market). Develop a decision tree for Jerry.arrow_forward
- Question 1. Hoverboards and the Factory Market Area: Suppose there is a single shoe factory in the region. The factory competes with homemade shoes and will sell shoes to any household for which the net price of factory shoes is less than the cost of homemade shoes. The cost of a homemade shoe is the opportunity cost of the time required to make the shoe at home, that is, the one gallon of milk that could be produced instead. Suppose the higher cost of living and commuting requires compensation of 0.80 gallons of milk per hour. Each worker produces 10 shoes per hour, so the average labor and capital cost are 0.18 gallons of milk and 0.12 gallons of milk respectively. The factory price of shoe (equal to the average production cost, sum of the average labor cost and the average capital cost) is 0.30 gallons of milk. A round-trip mile involves one mile of travel to a location and one mile back, for a total distance of two miles. Linear travel cost 20 miles /hour.
