Question

Given is a Decision Tree Diagram. The Payoffs 1-14 are given in the table below.

Part I. In order to compute the value at each of the following nodes, you would need to write a mathematical expression to compute the value. For the following questions, you are asked to write the mathematical expression to compute the value at each of the following nodes. Reminder! You are required to write the mathematical expression only, not the resulting computation value. You will be asked to enter the resulting value in Part II.
a) The mathematical expression to compute the value at node 1 is Blank 1
b) The mathematical expression to compute the value at node 3 is Blank 2

Part II. What is the resulting computation value at each of the following nodes.
c) The value at node 1 is Blank 3 (in 1 decimal place)
d) The value at node 3 is Blank 4 (in 1 decimal place)
e) The value at node 4 is Blank 5
f) The value at node 6 is Blank 6

Part III. Use the information in the tree diagram, Part I, and Part II to answer the following questions.
g) The mathematical expression to compute the value at node 7 is Blank 7
h) The value at node 7 is Blank 8 (in 1 decimal place)

Part IV. Solve and analyze the entire decision tree diagram to select the best alternative.
i) The value at node 8 is Blank 9 (in 1 decimal place)
j) The best alternative is to select the alternative Blank 10

Explanation / Answer

Solving only 4 parts as per Chegg policy. Please repost rest seperately.

a) Value = 1/3 * [ Payoff 1 + Payoff 2 + Payoff 3 ]

b) Value = 1/2 * [ Payoff 13 + Payoff 14]

c) Value at Node 1 = 1/3( 6 + 10 + (-6)) = 3.33

d) Value at Node 3 = 1/2( 4+ 7) = 5.5
