2. Jerry Bildery's factory is considering three approaches for meeting an expected in demand. These three approaches are increasing capacity, using overtime, and buying equipment. Demand will be increase, stable, increase. The profits for each approach under each possible scenario are as follows: Demand Approach Decrease Stable Increase Increasing Capacity $300,000 $500,000 $1,000,000 Using Overtime $500,000 $600,000 $700,000 Buying Equipment $400,000 $600,000 $900,000 Because the goal is to maximize, and Jerry is risk-neutral, he decides to use the equally likely decision criterion to make the decision as to which approach to use. According to this criterion, which approach should be used? If Jerry is risk-taker and he expect probability of demand scenario as; Decrease: 10% Stable: 30% Increase: 60% Is the Jerry's decision changed?
